Happy birthday @aj11ace 🎂 I hope you enjoyed my card and present I forgot to get you 😬
Curtis and Maura met in the Love Island villa last year.
They made it to the finals and continued their relationship outside, in the real world.
He was accused of cheating on her with fellow dancer Amber Pierson, but she denied these allegations to the ground.
A couple months later, Maura announced their split on social media.
Over summer, he was spotted kissing Amber during an outing in London.
After the pictures emerged, Maura tweeted, 'The truth always comes out in the end.'
What Curtis has to say
Curtis addressed the speculation on his podcast.
He insisted, "The answer is no, I did not cheat on Maura at all. There I’ve answered it."
The dancer went on to explain why it's taken him so long to finally address it.
He said, "For anybody who wants to know why I have never replied or said anything in the press about it, is because I really try not to reply or respond to lies which isn't really going to you know, affect my life bar in a negative way or just blow something up even more which isn’t true."
"There's just no point in it really."
"I think there's bigger things going on in life so I don’t waste my time in stuff like that."
Meanwhile, Curtis revealed in a recent interview that he's officially single.
'I did start to see somebody after lockdown but it fizzled out.'
