Mollie recently insisted that they are “just friends,” but the gorgeous pair are getting very close if these new pictures are anything to go by.

The pair wrapped their arms around each other as they enjoyed a coffee break during rehearsals for the BBC show.

They were all smiles as they linked arms as they strolled down the street.

At one stage, AJ, 22, placed his hand on the small of her back, according to The Sun.

Mollie, 30, recently addressed the rumours and said: “I think there’s always some kind of romance rumour so it didn’t surprise me but I hardly even know him well so far, so there’s no truth in that.

“But he’s such a sweet heart and obviously he is a beautiful boy so I’m very lucky.”

We think these two would be PERFECT together!
