"It’s a cliche to say, but love is blind."

Curtis Pritchard has said that he would be open to having a relationship with a man. The Love Island contestant and professional dancer said that although he has been with women in the past, he "wouldn't rule out" having a relationship with a person of the same sex either. “I’ve been with women and I’m with a woman now," he told The Sun. "You can never put a label on anything." "It’s a cliche to say, but love is blind. I can never ever say what will happen in the future. I wouldn’t rule anything out.” This comes as the 24-year-old and Longford's own Maura Higgins secured themselves fourth place in the ITV dating show. While on the show, the pair struggled to keep their hands off one another - most notably Maura who appeared to become increasingly frustrated by Curtis's unwillingness to get intimate on TV. "It was worth the wait. I’m glad we did it away from the cameras, but that’s all I’ll say, as a gentleman never kisses and tells," he said. “I never felt pressured to have sex on TV. I didn’t want to show off Maura to the world.  I was absolutely fine talking about sex, but actually performing it in front of people was next-level stuff. https://www.instagram.com/p/B0xayn0hA_A/ "At times you did want to let go under the covers, so I had to remind myself that there were cameras on us," he said. “It’s human instinct, it’s natural - we’re put on this planet to reproduce, it’s part of us. It was hard not to do it.” Although the pair are not officially boyfriend and girlfriend, Curtis has said that he is not seeing anybody else - and that his family are finally pronouncing Maura's name correctly. It's the little things.
