With her fun sense of humous and infectious energy, TV presenter AJ Odudu is becoming a regular on our TV screens. From her Eurovision presenting roles to her new Big Brother job, we've rounded up everything we know about the Blackburn born presenter.

AJ Odudu's TV work

AJ began her career at BBC Radio Lancashire before landing her first TV job on The Almost Perfect Guide to Life in 2009 on BBC2. Following numerous TV presenting roles and appearances, in 2013, AJ became the presenter of Big Brother's Bit on the Side with Rylan Clark-Neal and Emma Willis and now, she has been announced as the new Big Brother presenter on its reboot alongside Will Best.

More recently, AJ has appeared on the Great British Bake Off for Stand Up to Cancer, the 2021 series of Strictly Come Dancing and you can also expect to see AJ on your screens during the Eurovision Song Contest when it's held here in the UK.

As well as these shows, AJ has also appeared on many reality shows, charity programmes, panel shows and adverts including the Google Pixel advert which you've probably seen her on in between your favourite TV shows.

Does AJ have a partner?

AJ keeps her private life very private and she hasn't been spotted with a partner and keeps things very private on her social media accounts too including her Instagram account which she regularly posts on.

During her time on Strictly Come Dancing, there were extensive rumours that AJ was dating her professional dancing partner, Kai Widdrington but the pair continuously downplayed the rumours.

It's hard to believe the pair were romantic together as since that series, Kai has confirmed his relationship with fellow Strictly professional dancer, Nadiya Bychkova.

On previous TV shows, AJ has opened up about previous relationships and the fact she has been cheated on by previous partners numerous times, which has left her with a lot of trust issues when entering new relationships.
