Curtis Pritchard has confirmed he has bagged a new job on BBC One show The Greatest Dancer.
The Love Island finalist revealed the exciting news during an interview on Radio 1 today (August 8).
The Ballroom and Latin dance champion has landed the role of hosting hopefuls as they arrive for their dance auditions on the BBC talent show.
The 23-year-old, who is dating fellow Love Islander Maura Higgins, described his new job as a “dream come true.”
Curtis, who is a pro dancer on Ireland’s Dancing With The Stars, said: “To have left the Love Island villa just 10 days ago and to be so quickly given an opportunity to be a part of a show as amazing as The Greatest Dancer is a dream come true!”
He explained: “When I got the call I was so honoured to even be considered for this so the fact it’s happening I can’t quite believe! Dance is my passion and I can’t wait to meet all the contestants in the new revamped reception area.”
The Love Islander’s new co-workers will include The Greatest Dancer judges Matthew Morrison, Cheryl Tweedy and Oti Mabuse.
