Love Island finalist Curtis Pritchard has revealed he will no longer be involved with Dancing with the Stars.

The 23-year-old has performed on Ireland's version of Strictly Come Dancing for the last three years, but he put his dance career on hold when he flew out to Mallorca to join the ITV2 dating series.

Curtis confirmed the news in a recent interview with RSVP Magazine, where he explained: "I was part of Dancing with the Stars for three years.

"The show was a massive part of my life and I loved every single minute of it. It was a massive journey for me but I am not a part of it anymore."

While Curtis didn't elaborate on why he's stepped away from the RTE production, it seems pretty clear that he's freeing up his schedule to continue working on the varied projects that have come his way since leaving the Love Island villa.

Since leaving Love Island, Curtis has been confirmed for a role on BBC One's The Greatest Dancer, revealing that he'll be welcoming hopefuls to The Greatest Dancer studio when auditions for the reality series get under way, and he recently made an appearance on RuPaul's Drag Race UK too.

Curtis will also be taking to the stage this Christmas as the titular character in Dick Whittington at the Wycombe Swan Theatre in Buckinghamshire.

Love Island returns in winter 2020 on ITV2, and you can catch up on the show via ITV Hub.
