Curtis Pritchard and Maura Higgins are set to fix their rocky patch with one final date on 'Love Island'.

The couple hit a block in the road on the ITV2 reality show earlier this week, when Curtis confided in Maura that fellow Islander Jordan Hames had feelings for India Reynolds, which prompted Maura to break Curtis' trust and tell Jordan's girlfriend Anna Vakili.

But following Wednesday (24.07.19) night's double dumping - which saw Jordan and Anna booted from the villa alongside Chris Taylor and Harley Brash - 'Love Island' bosses will send all the remaining couples out on one last date on Thursday (25.07.19), where Curtis and Maura plan to patch things up.

During the episode, Maura will receive a text which says: "Maura and Curtis. It's time to get ready to leave the villa for your final date! #facethemusic #forbiddenfruit (sic)"

Seemingly forgetting about their previous spat, the two excitedly get ready for their date, with Curtis saying his partner makes him "smile".

He says: "I'm just so excited. Maura makes me smile. She makes me happy and she makes me laugh. I could just look at her all day because she is absolutely beautiful."

The couple were greeted with live music on their date, which professional dancer Curtis used as the perfect opportunity to show off his moves.

The 23-year-old dancer then says: "Do you think your parents will like me?"

And Maura, 28, replies: "Yes! Mammy would absolutely love you. I would be nervous to meet your parents."

Despite previously arguing about the bad advice Curtis gave to Jordan - in which he encouraged his fellow islander to make a move on India - the couple couldn't resist gushing over one another.

Maura tells him: "I know I don't tell you a lot of the time that I like you, but I really do. You're funny and I love your smile. When you smile, I smile."

Curtis says he considers himself "a very lucky man" before the two share a final dance to the live harp playing in the background.

Meanwhile, Ovie Soko confesses how he thought his role was to be Amber Gill's "guardian angel" before India walked in and coupled up with the basketball player.

And Amber admits to having an "instant connection" with Greg the moment he walked in, despite previously being heartbroken during her split with Michael Griffiths.
