Since being on the show Curtis has had to ask for an entirely new wardrobe because he can no longer fit into his old clothes.
Strictly Come Dancing's AJ Pritchard's brother is said to have gone up two clothes sizes while in the Spanish abode, because he has been enjoying tasty treats and unable to train.
A source told the Daily Star: "Curtis took some clothes with him and there were also outfits provided by sponsors.

"But he had to ask for some new ones because he is struggling to fit into them now."
Love Island bosses were forced to warn viewers to stop bodyshaming the star.
They said: "It is incredibly irresponsible that any Islander would be body-shamed in this way and we would always discourage anyone from making appearance-based comments that could be hurtful to the islanders and their families."
Last night saw Greg O’Shea and Amber Gill win the show and £50,000.
The couple beat favourites Molly-Mae Hague and Tommy Fury to win the ITV2 series.
Ovie Soko and India Reynolds came third, and Curtis and Maura Higgins came fourth.
