A part of his highlights reel showed how many of the daily housekeeping tasks AJ took on, including cleaning up, collecting firewood and water, and also washing up the dishes.
He famously got into a tiff with former EastEnders star Shane Richie earlier this week over the actor's efforts at washing up.
During his post-eviction interview with hosts Ant and Dec, the dancer tried to explain why he struggled with hunger more than others.
"Probably because I'm getting all the wood, the water... I was doing a lot more," AJ replied with a last minute dig at Shane.

Knowing it was AJ's turn to do the dishes, Shane laughed and said to the group: "Right then, who is doing the washing up?
"There you go, how do you like them apples!"
As the other campers giggled AJ failed to crack a smile and instead he ordered Shane to “put it by the bucket”.
However, AJ's girlfriend Abbie Quinnen has since admitted he "has got OCD" when it comes to cleaning, and regularly re-cleans their flat after she has gone over it.
