The dancer, from Hartlepool, has made a name for himself on the show alongside his partner Grace Durkin, 17, from Middlesbrough.
They became dance partners, and boyfriend and girlfriend, after meeting at college.
A source told The Sun: "Ali's behaviour online has been inappropriate at times.

"He's supposed to be representing BGT but instead is setting an extremely bad example for his young fans.
"Producers were not happy when they saw he had posted such an inflammatory picture on his Twitter as well as a host of disparaging comments about women.
"It's not only a huge embarrassment for Ali, it's a massive embarrassment for the show too, but producers decided on this occasion to give him the benefit of the doubt and leave him with a warning because he's only 16.

"But they will not tolerate contestants using this kind of language as above all BGT celebrates diversity."
