Curtis Pritchard sparks concern as he sports a black eye as he joins girlfriend Ekin-Su at the Grand National
CURTIS Pritchard has sparked concern as he sported a black eye at the Grand National with Ekin-Su.
The Love Island star, 29, looked loved up as he stepped out with Ekin, 30, for the racing.
He looked dapper with a white shirt, paired with grey suit trousers as he soaked up the warm weather.
However, he also showed off what appeared to be painful bruising around his eye.
Sources close to the reality star said Curtis sustained the injury while training for his debut boxing match.
They said: “Curtis has thrown himself into training ahead of his first fight with Misfits boxing.
“He’s making his debut in the ring on the 16th of May and the black eye has came from a training session.”
Curtis first told Sun Sport how he was following the likes of Tommy Fury into the ring, having previously been trained by the Love Island star.
He said: “I’ve always been into fighting and boxing and all of that stuff so it’s something I’ve always wanted to do as a kid.
“But dancing was my main career at the time and you couldn’t balance when you’re doing it at a very high level.
“So I feel like now I’m at a different place in my life and I thought, let’s do some boxing. Let’s do something I’ve always wanted to do and get in the ring.”
Meanwhile, this week Married at First Sight star Georges Berthonneau claimed Ekin-Su ‘cheated’ on him and said they were previously dating before she returned to Love Island.
Georges, 32, has claimed he was in a secret 10-month relationship with Ekin when she entered the All Stars villa this year.
In a bombshell interview, he has alleged that their relationship was “super intense and super intimate” and that they were “in love”.
