Former Strictly pro AJ Pritchard has revealed his fiancée suggested that he sell his ‘feet pics’ to help them save up, while appearing on the Spent podcast.
The Strictly Come Dancing star, who was the youngest male professional dancer, appeared on the show between 2016 and 2019, where he consistently danced his way to the semi-final, coming in fifth with partner Saffron Barker in his final season.
Forging himself as a fan-favourite during his four-year tenure, he has since appeared in reality TV shows like I’m A Celebrity, Celebrity SAS: Who Dares Wins and as a guest choreographer on RuPaul’s Drag Race.
And who can forget his and his brother Curtis Pritchard’s (of Love Island fame) memorable time on soap opera Hollyoaks.
Now, in a new interview with Spent host Matt Edmonton, he revealed the surprising financial advice doled out to him.

The TV personality may be used to using his feet to show off spectacular choregraphy but his fiancée, Zara Zoffany, had an idea for a better use for them.
‘My fiance was, like: “Honestly, you should just sell feet pics. That would help with probably even getting a house. We’re like: “People spend a lot of money on feet pics.”‘
Of course, a declaration like that requires a bit of follow-up, with Matt asking: ‘Is that because your feet are famous, or because you think you’ve got very attractive feet?’
AJ shared: ‘I don’t know where this conversation is going, but my feet are clean. When I say clean, I feel like there are no wounds, let’s say.
‘I feel like girls’ dancing feet, they have the straps [so] they’re quite cut.’
Despite his feet shaping up nicely, he is yet to wrap his head around ‘that whole industry’.
He continued: ‘It blows my brain because I don’t see the attraction to feet.
‘But more to the point, I don’t see why I am spending money on somebody’s feet that probably aren’t even their feet when you can just go on Google, and Google feet. What’s the point?’
Of course, the dancer is not the only famous face to have contemplated the feet-pic-selling life. Smile hitmaker Lily Allen has previously opened up about the copious amounts of money she has made on OnlyFans through this method.
Certainly, AJhas plenty to be saving up for, including his wedding to reality TV star fiancée Zara, who is documenting the lead-up to the big day on a bespoke Instagram account.
The happy couple got engaged in March 2025 after two years together, with AJ posting a video of the proposal on social media, sharing in the caption: ‘Seeing that pure joy, that moment of surprise… it meant everything.’
