LOVE Island’s Curtis Pritchard has gone Instagram official with his new girlfriend.
The 28-year-old shared loved-up snaps with Sophie Sheridan from their romantic getaway to St Lucia in the Caribbean.
Actress Sophie flashed a big smile as she cuddled up to Curtis on a boat. She wore a summery dress emblazoned with strawberries and a red bow in her hair while Curtis wore his stripy shirt open.
It looked to be a raucous night on board as the beer flowed and the pics got more silly with Curtis pulling some funny faces.
He wrote on Instagram: “This really is a before and after picture, before the boat party started and after the boat party started @sophiesheridan_ looking beautiful as always but me on the other hand.
“Had the best time away with my [heart emoji].”
His fans thought they made a perfect pair with one commenting: “You guys, too cute!”
Another said: “A lovely couple! Xx Looking great.”
A third shared: “Gorgeous couple.”
Professional dancer Curtis, who is the brother of ex-Strictly star AJ Pritchard, appeared in the villa in 2019 after shooting to fame on Ireland’s Dancing With The Stars.
He had a romance with Amy Hart in the villa, but famously reduced her to tears when he revealed it wasn’t working for him, and she left the show after having her heart broken.
Curtis went on to make the final of the series with Maura Higgins, who he was with for nine months.
Last year he returned to the franchise for the international Love Island Games, but decided against signing for All Stars.
When asked by OK! if he’d been approached to return, he explained: “There was an opportunity to but no, I thought, ‘Maybe not this time.’
“I need to catch up on it. To be fair, I’ve heard there’s a lot going down. Obviously, it’s All Stars and everybody’s been thrown back in at the deep end of the game. It’s a weird one though.
“I wonder if any of the same couples are gonna get back together. So I do need to catch up, and I’ve heard it’s been really good so far.”
Chris Taylor, who himself had a romance with Maura, made a dig at Curtis during the All Star series.
The Leicester lad openly mocked Curtis by copying one of his most iconic moments in the villa.
As the cast woke up after the first night, Chris mimicked Curtis saying: “I just like to be the guy that gets up and makes everybody their coffee so that so that everybody is ready for the day.”
Curtis was known for his daily drink-making ritual, treating the girls to an early brew.
