HE first found fame and love back on Love Island in 2020 – and now four years on Curtis Pritchard looks like a very different man as he returns for All Stars.
The 28-year-old is now in amazing shape, with a six pack, defined biceps and impressive shoulder muscles.

But during his first stint on the show, Curtis gained two stone – admitting at the time was binging on five slices of cheesecake every night.
He said at the time: explains that it was actually one of the show’s producers who flagged how much he was eating.
The dancer shared: “When I came out of Love Island I put two stone on in weight.
“I was enjoying the show’s cheesecake too much. At one point a producer said to me: ‘Curtis we have actually counted how many slices of cheesecake you have with each meal and the most was five slices’ – I like my cheesecake what can I say!”
He ended up getting fat-shamed by cruel trolls and made the decision to turn his life around when left.
Turning things around
Curtis, who dated Maura Higgins after the show, ended up losing three stone and told how he now has a “healthy relationship with food”.
He explained: “I didn’t have a healthy relationship with food before I went into the Love Island villa.
“I was doing my dancing and through my life I’ve always done questionable diets and then binged out on food, so I’d go on crash diets, lose a drastic amount of weight, and then all of a sudden it’s not healthy to do that, and I’d binge and put weight back cause I’d eat loads too much.
“It would just be a vicious circle that would keep happening. Now I just, eat what I want when I want, but my whole mindset’s changed around food.
“It’s just a moderate healthy diet. If I want a chocolate bar, I have a chocolate bar. But it’s not like oh I’m not allowed this, I’m not allowed that – I can eat whatever I want when I want.”
Speaking in another interview about the trolling he received, Curtis said: “On a truthful note it isn’t nice to say something nasty about someone. It isn’t nice to do and be on the receiving end. But you know what, look at me now.”
Finding love
Curtis was most recently dating Sophie Sheridan but split just months before All Stars.
During his first time on the show, Curtis was coupled up with now-married Amy Hart but dumped her in memorable scenes after Casa Amor.
She then left the show after having her heart broken as he moved on to Maura.

Second time lucky
In his pre-villa interview, the 28-year-old reality star said: “I feel like I’m in a different stage in my life. The idea of settling down is a serious idea in my life right now.
“I haven’t found my true love… that sounds so cheesy doesn’t it.
“So, I thought, let’s give it another go. It was great fun last time; a lot of emotions.
“I feel excited to go back. I’m going to have a great fun time and hopefully leave with someone. It’s exciting.”
He was then asked: “Does ‘making coffee in the morning’ follow you everywhere?”
To which he replied: “It follows me everywhere!” In hindsight, if I do find a girl this time, I will perhaps cuddle her in bed rather than make coffee… so Amy taught me a lesson.”
