DWTS Pro Curtis Pritchard Is Set To Join Love Island
He's swapping his dancing shoes for flip flops...
Just weeks to go before Love Island returns to our screens and we cancel all other plans for two months. There’s plenty of talk about the potential contestants this year and fans of Dancing With The Stars Ireland will have a particularly vested interest in one of them.
Rumours swirling suggest Curis Pritchard is gearing up to swap his dancing shoes for flip flops and head to Casa Amor.
A source told The Sun: “His body is ideal for being in swimwear all day, plus he’s a lovely bloke with a great sense of humour so is sure to be a hit with the ladies.
“They are also hoping that he will bring some sexy salsa moves to the villa.”
If you watched DWTS you’ll know Curtis as Holly Carpenter’s initial dance partner on series three. Sadly the pro had to take time out of the show following a horrific night club attack over Christmas.
The 23-year-old was on a night out with brother, and fellow pro dancer AJ Pritchard, who works on Strictly Come Dancing. The pair were attacked in Chesire by a group of men and Curtis had to undergo knee surgery while AJ sustained injury to his face.
Thankfully, the two recovered and Curtis returned to DWTS toward the end of the series. It could very well have been the last series of the RTE show Curtis will take part in however, if he reaches the level of success many other Love Island stars have reached before him. He’ll be signing a deal with Boohoo and teeth whiteners in no time!
