CURTIS Pritchard is enjoying a romantic mini-break with the dancer he was accused of cheating on Maura Higgins with.
The Love Island star, 24, is on a beachside break in Cornwall with Amber Pierson, his brother AJ and the Strictly star’s girlfriend Abbie Quinnen.
The group have been sharing their trip with fans on Instagram – but Amber was only spotted after eagle-eyed fans noticed a post of them walking together shared by best pal Abbie.
A source close to Curtis insists: “Amber and Abbie are best friends.
“She and Curtis are not together or romantically involved, both are staying in their own individual rooms.”
The trip has seen the group go on clifftop strolls, learn to surf on the beach and enjoy candlelit dinners.
Curtis and Amber appear to be close friends but since the cheating allegations broke, they have done their best not to be seen together.
In May Abbie got fans talking after she shared a picture of herself with the AJ and Curtis at a theatre – but cut Amber out of the shot.
It left fans questioning Abbie’s decision to leave her out.
One person wrote: “Amber missing from the picture – she was with ye that night double dating!”
While another person commented: “It wasn’t only the three of you that went there. Amber went too.”
Someone replied: “She don’t want to post it because it would confirm the cheating rumours.”
HOAR Online previously revealed that Curtis had grown close to blonde bombshell Amber, a fellow professional dancer.
We reported how Maura confronted Curtis over claims he had cheated before their split.
The alarm was raised when Maura, 29, was tagged in a tweet that said the ballroom dancer had been “hugging and kissing” a blonde beauty from his live tour with Strictly sibling AJ.
Writing from an anonymous account, the tweet stated the Curtis had got up close and personal with Amber when Maura was partying elsewhere with friends.
It said: “Curtis and Maura are definitely not together. They are at different night clubs. Curtis is with the dance crew and is hugging and kissing amberpierson”
Following the tweet, Maura announced the couple had split in an emotional post to fans on Instagram – but not before having it out with Curtis.
A source said: “After their separate nights out on Saturday, Maura tried to text Curtis but he didn’t reply. He called her instead and said it wasn’t true.
“It wasn’t enough for Maura so they came to a mutual decision to end their relationship.”
