But in The Suns exclusive pictures yesterday the couple confirmed their relationship as they were seen kissing after enjoying a date in London.

Now Maura who shot to fame on the 2019 series of Love Island has spoken for the first time about her connection with former Towie star Pete.

She said: We just get on very, very well. I adore him, he’s an amazing person.

Do you know whats so weird? We met very soon after me coming off Love Island and we just instantly clicked.

“Our humour is the same. It’s like that sick, dark humour. Its very abusive. We abuse each other. Very nasty, it’s hilarious.

Maura made the admission on the We Need To Talk podcast with Paul Brunson and also opened up about previous failed relationships.

Shes been linked to stars including Giovanni Pernice and fellow Love Islander Chris Taylor.

Maura said: Ive not had a great track record in relationships.

I just feel like apart from my best friend, every guy has just let me down.

I expect to be let down and you can never be in a healthy relationship if Im expecting that.

Maura and Pete first set tongues wagging after they were pictured snogging in public in the summer.

However, the pair were also seen getting VERY close at the afterparty for the Pride of Britain Awards, reports claimed.

One fan saw Maura planting a kiss on Petes nose before the pair kissed on the lips, it was reported.

Mauras admission comes weeks after they were seen all over each other in a pub, when she joined Pete and his Strictly co-stars.
