The pair are believed to have met when Curtis was dating Ekin-Su, as they were both on the same tour, named Come What May.
In August last year, it was revealed that Jazzy had bagged herself a huge new role away from Walford, with the big new theatre role in Come What May.
And Curtis also starred in the show alongside his Strictly star brother AJ.
The tour ran from September 20th to October 24th 2024, meaning he and Jazzy knew each other before his Love Island All Stars stint, in January of this year.
Curtis and Ekin-Su got together on All Stars this year, but recently split, with the pair announcing their break up via social media statements.
Now, shortly after his and Ekin's split, dancer Curtis has been spotted linking arms with stunning actress Jazzy, while attending the Bloomsbury Theatre in London.
The pair went to watch Strictly star Kai Widdrington's Evolution tour.
Curtis was spotted looking casual in a white t-shirt and jeans as he exited the theatre with Jazzy by his side.
She was seen showing the Love Islander something on her phone, as well as stroking the back of his head and linking arms with him.
Ekin-Su and Curtis Pritchard SPLIT three months after Love Island All Stars
Jazzy looked stunning in a grey jacket and tartan trousers, with her blonde hair down.
She sported a glam makeup look and red lipstick for their theatre trip, and the pair looked in great spirits on the hot summer's day, laughing and smiling in each other's company.
The Sun has contacted both Jazzy and Curtis' reps for comment.
The actress, who was previously linked to another of her co-stars Bobby Brazier, was rumoured to be dating Strictly Come Dancing star Jamie Borthwick last year.
Jamie continued to fuel speculation that the pair were an item after seemingly remaining close months after Jazzy left the BBC soap opera.

They were often snapped together on social media and this week was no different.
The duo posed for a selfie, with the blonde actress captioning it: "The weekly gossip = complete."
The stars then filmed a carpool karaoke as they sang a version of Nobody Knows Me Like You Do, from Disney film High School Musical, before finishing with a rendition of Start of Something New.
Jamie, 30, and Jazzy previously sparked rumours they were dating back in December 2023.
Jazzy shared a photo of her resting her head on Jamie's shoulder.
The picture got fans talking, with some convinced that this is more than just an on-screen romance.
One wrote: "They would make a great couple," while another posted: "Are they an item?"

BBC asks police to investigate new Strictly allegations, reports say
The BBC has asked the police to investigate Strictly Come Dancing amid fresh allegations, according to reports, after claims two of its stars used cocaine. The Sun on Sunday reported that the corporation has alerted the Metropolitan police to new allegations about the dance competition show, the details of which it does not specify. A BBC spokesperson said on Saturday the corporation does not comment on police investigations. It comes after reports in the Sun earlier this month alleged two Strictly cast members' drug use was discussed on the show, and said that the corporation had appointed law firm Pinsent Masons to lead the investigation. The show was also the subject of a review in 2024, when the BBC looked into allegations of bullying and harassment against former professional dancer Giovanni Pernice made by his former dance partner Amanda Abbington. The corporation upheld some, but not all, of the complaints made – and introduced a series of new measures aimed at improving welfare. This included the introduction of a chaperone who is present 'at all times' during training room rehearsals. EastEnders star James Borthwick was also suspended from the BBC after a video emerged of the actor using a disabled slur on the set of the dance programme. The cocaine use allegations were reportedly made in a legal submission by law firm Russells in March on behalf of former contestant Wynne Evans, who was dropped by the BBC after apologising for using 'inappropriate language' during the launch of the Strictly tour. It is understood that the BBC often appoints external law firms to help it lead investigations. The BBC spokesperson previously said: 'We have clear protocols and policies in place for dealing with any serious complaint raised with us. We would always encourage people to speak to us if they have concerns. It would not be appropriate for us to comment further.' The Metropolitan police has been contacted for comment.

Prince Andrew's biographer promises more shock revelations after Duke of York's friends who had refused to speak to him 'come forward in droves'
It is a devastating portrait of Prince Andrew which – even by his standards – contains sensational details about his relationships and finances. But historian Andrew Lownie, whose forensic biography of the disgraced Duke of York, Entitled, was released last week, has said there will be more revelations to come. The royal biographer has told The Mail on Sunday that friends of the prince have come forward 'in droves' to say they are now willing to paint the 'full picture' about his extravagant past. Many are formerly loyal associates who had originally declined to be involved in the book but have been emboldened to come forward since its publication. And so many have now offered to contribute that the historian – who spent four years working on Entitled, and interviewed hundreds of people for his research – has been invited by his publisher to produce an updated edition. Speaking to the MoS, Mr Lownie said it would be an 'entirely new book' which would be ready by next summer. 'The amazing and astonishing thing that's happened since Entitled came out is that people have come forward in droves with more stories to tell about Prince Andrew,' he said. 'Those who felt they couldn't speak to me before have now changed their mind or have realised they've been covering things up for him out of misplaced loyalty. 'A lot of respectable people who declined to be involved in the book are now coming forward, keen to unload the secrets they've been keeping for all these years. Speaking to the MoS, Mr Lownie said it would be an 'entirely new book' which would be ready by next summer. Such news will no doubt be particularly unwelcome for beleaguered Andrew and his former wife Sarah, Duchess of York 'So my Andrew book is going to have to be substantially rewritten from start to finish. It will be an entirely new book, not just a few new chapters, and I'll get it done in time for the paperback release next summer. I think my book really broke the inertia surrounding Prince Andrew.' Such news will no doubt be particularly unwelcome for beleaguered Andrew and his former wife Sarah, Duchess of York, who also receives an unflattering portrait in Mr Lownie's book. Commentators have already suggested that the claims in the book – serialised earlier this month by the Daily Mail and The Mail on Sunday – have sealed Andrew's fate, making a return to public life all but impossible. Any further scandal could also prove difficult for the Royal Family more widely. Mr Lownie has already alluded to the fact that the passages he was forced to remove for legal reasons were enough to bring down the monarchy. He has also admitted that the financial dealings he has reported so far – including £750,000 from Turkish millionaire Nebahat Isbilen which ended up in Andrew's Coutts account, described as a gift for Princess Beatrice's wedding and then repaid, and huge loans to Andrew from Banque Havilland, owned by the family of multi-millionaire scrap metal merchant David Rowland – are only 'the tip of the iceberg'. Mr Lownie told one interviewer: 'You know, there's money clearly from... China. There's clearly a lot of money in the Middle East.' And now the author had Philip in his sights, too By the time the book is published, it will be close to a decade since the duke's death, and Lownie believes public attitudes will have shifted yet further. 'People might be ready to hear some of the stories about his private life,' he says Commentators have already suggested that the claims in Mr Lownie's book – serialised earlier this month by the Daily Mail and The Mail on Sunday – have sealed Andrew's fate, making a return to public life all but impossible Author Andrew Lownie's next subject for a 'warts and all' biography will be the late Duke of Edinburgh, we can reveal. He has set aside four years for the project, in which he plans to delve into details of Prince Philip's personal life, including the discovery – hinted at in Entitled – that he enjoyed a romance with Susan Barrantes, the mother of Sarah, Duchess of York. 'I've put in all the FOIs [Freedom of Information requests] for a Prince Philip book already,' Mr Lownie says. 'I'm told a great deal of time after his death was spent by those in his employment burning all his papers, but I'm working very hard to get what I can.' One surprising early find was the late duke's school report, which was intended to be kept classified and inaccessible to the public for 100 years. 'Why they kept it classified for 100 years, I don't know,' Mr Lownie adds. 'But I've got it. It shows his recommendations for the Royal Navy, and it's now at last declassified and available. Times are changing, they do need to start declassifying more and more records for the royals. People expect more transparency from the monarchy now.' By the time the book is published, it will be close to a decade since the duke's death, and Lownie believes public attitudes will have shifted yet further. 'People might be ready to hear some of the stories about his private life,' he says. 'When I wrote about his relationship with Fergie's mother, Susan Barrantes, in the Prince Andrew book, people got very cross with me, saying, "He's not here to defend himself". 'But I am very much working on getting lots of evidence together.' Mr Lownie, who wrote a 2019 biography about Philip's uncle, Lord Mountbatten, was confronted by former Cabinet minister and now GB News host Sir Jacob Rees-Mogg over the 'unfounded allegations' about the late Queen's husband he included in Entitled. But he says: 'Jacob Rees-Mogg might want me to have got hold of a signed affidavit from Prince Philip, and we can never get hold of that, but I'm going to have a thoroughly researched piece with plenty of FOIs and evidence.'
