Curtis Pritchard lands presenting job on BBC's 'The Greatest Dancer'

The 'Love Island' star will chat to dance hopefuls as they prepare for their auditions

His 'Love Island' missus has already secured a presenting job - but not to be outdone, Curtis Pritchard has also managed to bag a similar TV gig for himself.

With Maura set to host a 'relationship advice' slot on 'This Morning', her professional dancer beau has been announced as the backstage presenter of BBC talent show 'The Greatest Dancer'.

The new series of the BBC One show - which sees a panel of judges decide whether dancers have what it takes - will air early next year and will see Pritchard filling the 'Dermot O'Leary at the X Factor auditions' role as he chats to hopefuls backstage.

"To have left the Love Island villa just 10 days ago and to be so quickly given an opportunity to be a part of a show as amazing as The Greatest Dancer is a dream come true," he said. "When I got the call I was so honoured to even be considered for this, so the fact it's happening I can't quite believe! Dance is my passion and I can't wait to meet all the contestants in the new, revamped reception area."

Curtis has, of course, already appeared on TV in a professional capacity, most notably on RTE's 'Dancing with the Stars'. He is also set to act as a choreographer on the forthcoming UK edition of RuPaul's Drag Race, alongside his brother AJ.
