Inside the glam life of AJ Pritchard's new girl Zara Zoffany as Strictly star dumps Abbie Quinnen | The Sun
FORMER Strictly dancer AJ Pritchard is dating super glam model Zara Zoffany after splitting with long-term love Abbie Quinnen.
The Sun was first to reveal how Stoke-born AJ, 27, dumped fellow dancer Abbie, 25, after she caught him texting another woman.
She told how the Celebrity SAS: Who Dares Wins star was "emotionless" as he ended their relationship – which had progressed to serious talk of marriage – on a "park bench."
While Abbie, who is regaining her confidence after a TikTok trick sparked a fireball that left her with third degree burns, did not disclose who AJ was messaging, The Sun on Sunday revealed AJ is now dating model Zara, 27.
Yesterday, confirming the reports, AJ and Zara, whose full name is Zara Zoffany Farida Sassoon-Munns, were seen walking near her home in London.
Zara is best pals with Topshop heiress Chloe Green and appeared on MTV reality show The Royal World in 2018.

Yet away from the screen, fitness fan Zara lives a very lavish life that more then lives up to her former comments.
She describes it as her "Zaza in Wonderland" world, with her Instagram page depicting a jaw-dropping array of highlights.
She's often seen filming high-intensity workouts in stunning gym gear alongside pal Georgia May Salamat.
These can take place anywhere from her London home turf to overseas on a variety of holidays.
She also has a dedicated "Move with Zara" page to showcase snaps of her toned body and ripped abs in her own fitness clothing line.
Meanwhile, the model appears to have travelled to Milan, Istanbul, Monaco, Ibiza, Capri, Nice, Sorrento, Formentera, Saudi Arabia during 2022 alone – capturing selfies from each.
Back home, Zara has given a sneak peek of her pad while posing in a lime green two-piece on her plush cream sofa.
Her elegant home features cosy cream interiors and artwork on the walls, including a huge portrait of a stag head.
She also revealed she has a passion for wild swimming as she jumped into an outdoor pool.
Yet as well as her modelling, the savvy star is also the co-founder of CClub.
Its Instagram page captures a variety of fun drinks events and outlines in the bio: "CClub is a global community based in London.
"A shared passion for the good life! We inspire you to meet great people, experience more and enjoy!"
Zara's personal taste for the good life is clearly shown on her elegant party pictures, with one snap seeing her posing by a huge bottle of champagne on ice.
She also loves to live the high life by dressing up for Ascot Races.
Yet while Zara might be starting a new life chapter, Abbie is struggling to cope with her relationship ending.
Dancer Abbie, 25, tearfully revealed to us: “I’m completely devastated and my world has fallen apart.
“AJ isn’t the person I thought he was. After everything I went through with him I thought we would be together for ever. He has been the biggest disappointment to me.
“This has knocked my confidence after my accident and I need to rebuild myself now. AJ was my world and I didn’t recognise the guy who was breaking up with me.
“I kept asking him about the girl from the messages, but from the moment I brought her up he completely changed.”
Abbie insists everything was normal until he flew to South America last month for Channel 5 reality show The Challenge, where he appears alongside Zara.
Abbie said: “A few weeks back AJ and I went on a romantic holiday to Turkey, it was so lovely.
“We’ve always been madly in love. We spent every moment together possible. We had so many plans.
"We were talking about getting engaged next year, looking at buying houses, how many children we wanted, which schools they’d go to.
"That’s why when it happened it came completely out of the blue.
“AJ was nervous about going away to film as he wasn’t able to prepare for it as much as other ones he had done like I’m A Celebrity and Celebrity SAS.
“Before he left we had a really emotional goodbye. We hugged for hours and shed tears.
“I knew we weren’t going to see each other for three weeks so I went on holiday with my family.
“At first we were FaceTiming every day, like normal, then he had the phone taken away from him to do the TV show.
“In the meantime I was having an amazing holiday with my family, I was finally feeling confident in my bikini around my family and friends, which felt amazing as since the accident my confidence had taken a major knock.
“I was missing AJ lots, but knew he’d be focused on the show and doing amazingly, like he always did on these things.
“When he eventually got his phone back he seemed different. He wasn’t calling as much and seemed distracted. A couple of days later he came home, it was the Queen’s funeral so we went into London to lay some flowers. We had quite a nice day together.
“We got home and watched Ferne McCann’s First Time Mum, it was the episode where her fiancé Lorri Haines proposed to her. Then we started talking about how he would do our own proposal.
"Then I noticed he was on his phone quite a bit and that he was messaging a girl who had been on the show with him.
“I only caught a glimpse of the message but it was along the lines of,
‘I need to talk to you, can we meet tomorrow?’
“I just questioned him asking, ‘Why are you messaging her?’ and from that moment on he was completely cold with me. It was so odd, he couldn’t give me any answers.
"He kept saying he didn’t have a clear brain, he couldn’t make any decisions and didn’t know if he wanted to be with me any more.
“I thought we were madly in love and in the space of a few hours he was messaging someone else and my world was turned upside down.
Abbie recalled: “He was completely emotionless and ended everything. He told me he no longer loved me and didn’t want to be with me any more.

"After everything we had been through together as a couple I thought that he would at least be upset that we were parting.
“He was acting as if I was a stranger. It was so hurtful and it broke my heart how cold he was. I was baffled and still am.”
