"Life is beautiful, life is incredible, life is magical… But sadly it doesn’t last forever."
"RIP, I love [you] Nanna."
"Nanna words literally cannot describe how much I love you, and forever will love you and the memories of you."
"You really have been a massive part of my life and helped me to be the man I am today."
He continued: "As Grandad and Nanna would have wished for, AJ will stay in the castle and continue making her proud wherever she is watching from."
"AJ has so much more to give to the show and we know that Nanna will be watching and guiding him throughout the final part of his journey on the programme."
"We know we have made the right decision to everyone involved."
We're sending AJ, Curtis and their whole family so much love at this difficult time!
