A source said: "Curtis and Sophie looked loved up as they strolled around the racecourse together on Friday.

"The pair met when they both starred in panto Cinderella last year after they developed a spark on the stage."

Curtis played Dandini in the panto in Wolverhampton over Christmas, with AJ starring as Prince Charming, and Sophie was a part of the ensemble cast.

The dancer and Maura split in March 2020 after meeting on Love Island the previous summer.

Maura quickly moved on with Chris Taylor and then Giovanni Pernice, while Curtis has remained single.

Speaking previously about their break up and Maura dating Chris, Curtis said: “I feel betrayed by them both —  two people I was very close to.

“When I saw the pictures, I’d be lying if I said I didn’t feel hurt. I was upset. How long has this truly been going on for?

“At the time I was accused of cheating, but I never did. I was always faithful to Maura.

“If you look back on everything — and I am looking back on it now — I’m like, ‘Curtis, all the signs were bloomin’ there, why didn’t you realise then?’

“You just don’t when you are in that situation. You trust  what they say. Now her true colours are shown. They said they would never ever be together, and here they are.”

Curtis went on to appear on Celebs Go Dating but failed to find a meaningful relationship.

Prior to coupling up with Maura, Curtis was with Amy Hart in the villa but shocked fans when he cruelly dumped her.

Curtis's rep didn't reply to a request for comment when contacted by The Sun.
