TV presenter AJ Odudu and her Strictly partner Kai Widdrington were stunned by a cheeky comment from her nephew – and host Claudia Winkleman.

In a video tape shown before the couple took to the dance floor, the couple – who are rumoured to be dating in real life after meeting on the show – were chatting to AJ’s beloved nieces and nephews.

And viewers said they asked the question everyone wants to know the answer to, when one of them said: “Why don’t you just kiss him?”

One Twitter user named the Last Single Ghoul wrote: “AJ’s niece: ‘Why don’t you just kiss him?’ Finally someone saying what we’ve all been thinking.”

Elle wrote: “AJ’s nieces and nephews see the vision lmaoooo

Kris wrote: “The kid just said what we were all thinking.”

Amy Joanne added: “‘Why don’t you just kiss him?’ Ah kids come out with the funniest stuff.”

Last week, viewers thought the pair almost kissed at the end of a steamy routine.

When the couple were waiting to hear their scores, Claudia Winkleman referenced what AJ’s nephew had said.

She cheekily turned to Kai and said: “If you want to kiss her at any point, now is the time.”

Kai said “I know it is, I know it is” but he and AJ were giggling and looking very sheepish.

When their score of 37 was confirmed, Kai took AJ’s hands in his and kissed them.
