She also said she would be open to moving in with him.

Love Island’s Maura Higgins had told how she brought out Curtis Pritchard’s “fiery side” during their time in the villa.

The 28-year-old, who came in fourth alongside the professional dancer, added that she thinks the two of them “balance each other out” well.

Speaking at the launch of Bellamianta’s newest products, she told Her:

“I feel like I brought the craic out of Curtis a lot, he’s come out of his shell.

“I’ve brought out his fiery side and he’s brought out my softer side. We balance each other out that way.”

And while she has discussed her plans to move to the UK on the series, Maura said that her post-villa life has been so busy that she hasn’t had the chance to start looking into moving yet.

“I’ve not even gone looking [for a place to live in the UK] yet, I’ve just been so busy working – I’m living out of hotels at the moment,” she said, before admitting she wouldn’t rule out moving in with the professional dancer. “I would actually [move in with Curtis], yeah.”

Maura added that she wouldn’t say no to the chance to do Dancing With the Stars Ireland alongside Curtis, who has been a professional dancer on the last two series’.

“I wouldn’t rule it out – but I don’t know whether to mix work and pleasure, so…” she said.

The fan-favourite Love Island contestant also revealed the one Irish thing she missed the most while in the villa – and the Islander who she would unfollow on Instagram if she had the chance.

The 28-year-old was in Dublin on Thursday night to celebrate the newly-released must-haves from tanning brand Bellamianta.

The company marked the launch of their Flawless Filter Body Makeup and Skin Perfecting Illuminating Bronzer at Café En Seine.
