Instead, fans of the Weatherfield based soap reckon he is only after Steve’s charity money, Birmingham Live reports.
Curtis is in a relationship with Steve's daughter, Emma. On Wednesday night, during a double bill, fans watched as he popped the question.
Taking to Twitter, some viewers accused him of being "dodgy" and "a snake."
One fan wrote: "I think Curtis is lying about being ill. He’s well dodgy in my opinion. I might be wrong but something doesn’t add up here #Corrie"
Another said: "Curtis is a snake.
"Something weird when he ends up at hospital and only says gave him paracetamol and nothing they can do…Wish corrie was like #GoodOldDays #Corrie"
A third added: "Curtis definitely after Steve's charity money, its a fake illness #corrie curtis" Jennifer Cole agreed.
And a fourth wrote: "We all know that Curtis isn't ill, don't we?"
