Hours later, Curtis released a statement about his new single status.
In a message shared with his fans on social media, he wrote: "Just a quick note to say thank you so much for all the kind messages — it really does mean the world.
"It's true, Ekin and I have decided to go our separate ways. Breakups are never easy, but I'll always be grateful for the laughs, the adventures, and the memories (especially the dance routines).
He continued: "She's an amazing woman and I've got nothing but love and respect for her."

The statement concluded: "I'll be keeping busy with work,boxing, dancing, and working with the team on FINT. Lots of love, Curtis x"
The former couple made it to the final of the second All Stars series in January this year.
Crutis was fresh out of a break-up with his ex Sophie Sheridan when he signed up for the ITV2 show.
Over the last seven weeks, the 29-year-old has been training for a Misfits boxing competition.

He was supported by girlfriend Ekin who cheered for him at ringside despite his unfortunate defeat.
However, the pair had sparked concern from fans over the last few days as they were notably absent from each other's lives.
Announcing the news on Instagram today, Ekin-Su said: "I wanted to share that Curtis and I have decided to go our separate ways.
"It's been a really tough decision, but one made with a lot of love and respect for one another.
