On Wednesday, one of Curtis' childhood friends spoke out on the cheating allegations, telling OK! online: "Throughout the relationship all I've ever seen is Curtis gushing about how much he loves Maura.

"He was genuinely so happy with her. I think the problem may have been on her side and not his.

"I remember on Valentine's Day seeing his lovely post about her online, but then I never saw anything from her about how much she loves him that day," they said.

"I do feel bad for Curtis because he's taken the high road and won't get involved in a slanging match with someone he cared so much for.

"But I really feel for the poor girl who people are saying Curtis cheated with. All she's done is be one of like 20 dancers in AJ's show, and now she's being trolled online for something she didn't do. The truth will find a way out eventually."

Although he is yet to speak directly about his heartbreak, Curtis has hinted he is receiving support from his parents and brother, AJ Pritchard.

Sharing an image of his relatives with his 1.6million Instagram followers, Curtis captioned the upload: "#Family. The people that always support me."
