AJ Pritchard's emotional breakdown on DWTS

AJ Pritchard, a former professional dancer on the UK's Strictly Come Dancing, has been seen breaking down in tears while competing for a professional dancer position on America's Dancing With The Stars. The experience has clearly taken a significant emotional toll on the 31-year-old.

In a clip from the show 'Dancing With The Stars: The Next Pro,' Pritchard was seen crying and was comforted by a fellow contestant. He explained the immense stress and exhaustion he has endured, driven by a lifelong ambition to excel in this role.

Pritchard revealed that he has postponed his wedding to his fiancée, Zara Zoffany, in order to fully commit to his goal on the American show. He expressed his deep-seated desire to succeed, acknowledging the sacrifices he has made and the potential disappointment if he does not achieve his aim.

This pursuit comes amidst past commentary from Pritchard regarding the UK's Strictly Come Dancing, which drew a critical response from fellow former professional Oti Mabuse. Mabuse suggested that Pritchard's public remarks and personality may have caused friction with others in the dance community.
