A former dental nurse is having the time of his life after swapping Norwich for the glitz and glamour of reality TV stardom.  

Tyler Curtis attended City College Norwich (CCN) to study musical theatre in 2008.

Later he found his passion for dental nursing and worked at Plummers and Associates in Thorpe St Andrew until he moved.  

The now 30-year-old said: “I enjoyed City College so much, it was full of so many talented characters.

“I made some amazing friends and really worked on finding myself which I don’t believe you discover until you go to college.” 

Since moving to Manchester five years ago, Tyler tries to come back to the city as much as possible, especially as he misses his home comforts.  

He said: “I always go to my favourite restaurant, Haggle, I love tasty food.”

When he moved Tyler wanted to find a job as a dental nurse.  

He said: “I applied for Kiln Lane Dental without knowing it was Hanna Kinsella’s practice – she is a housewife on The Real Housewives of Cheshire.  

“I got the job, we became great friends and began posting on social media – the producers were interested in our friendship and the rest is history.”

Now Tyler has even had to prep his wardrobe to be ready for a party at the drop of a hat. 

He said: “You don’t get much time to prepare an outfit for an episode, so I have a wardrobe full of glitzy, glamorous and sparkly outfits for all occasions.” 

Tyler is living his life to the fullest and enjoying all the extravagant parties he never dreamed he would be a guest at.
