And after enjoying a luxurious girls’ holiday in Ibiza, Maya throws herself into work and makes a stunning entrance into the villa just a day before the ITV2 final.
Maya flaunted her stunning figure in a chic pink minidress and sky-high heels as she walked into the villa.
The islanders are stunned by her entrance when she says: “Hello my loves,” before making a very dramatic announcement.

And after enjoying a luxurious girls’ holiday in Ibiza, Maya is getting back to work, making a stunning entrance into the villa just a day before the ITV2 final.
Maya will reveal the results of last night’s voting as she explains, ‘Last night, each of you chose two couples that you thought were the least compatible.’
Islanders are heard whispering to their partners, “this is wild,” while another name is said to be “expected.”
Revealing which couples are vulnerable and therefore at risk, Maya says: ‘Today, one final couple will be voted out of the Villa, bringing their Love Island journey to an end and that decision is not in their hands.
‘Your future on Love Island will be decided by some very familiar faces.’
As commotion spreads throughout the Villa, Ciaran says, “No, what?”
Led by the series’ first abandoned islander, Sam, and followed by Patsy, former islanders Munveer, Samantha, Omar, Harriett, Ronnie, Uma, Wil, Jess, Hugo, Grace and Reuben all gather around the fire pit with the power in their hands.
Maya informs them: “Today you all have to make a very important decision. Now you must individually decide which of these four couples you think is the least compatible and would like to leave the Villa. The couple with the most votes will leave the Villa immediately.”
As the drama unfolds around the fire pit, the stranded islanders near the end of their decision-making process and Maya says, “Samantha, please get up.”
Maya showed off her stunning figure in a chic pink minidress and high heels as she walked into the villa.
Maya accessorized her pink dress with a pair of chunky gold hoop earrings and a matching necklace.

Samantha explains her decision: “It’s a very difficult decision, I haven’t met half of you because I’ve only been here for two weeks. I think this particular person has a game plan and has had it from day one.
“I think he has a lot of opinions about other people’s relationships, but when it comes to his own, he’s a bit bold, isn’t he? Personally, I don’t think this person deserves to be in the finals, so I choose…”
ITV viewers will have to wait and see which couple narrowly misses out on the final when the stranded islanders make their choices tonight.
This comes after MailOnline revealed that ITV2 star Maya and BRIT Award winner Stormzy have split after disagreements over when to settle down.
Sources told MailOnline the couple had clashed over their lifestyles, with Stormzy being more of a homebody.
Meanwhile, Maya, who is at the top of her game as the face of luxury fashion brand Dolce & Gabbana, an ambassador for Rimmel London and is being sought after by streaming giant Netflix, is focused on her career at the moment.
A source close to the couple revealed: ‘Maya and Stormzy are on very different pages when it comes to their future.
‘Stormzy was eager to establish himself, while Maya is enjoying her career, is ambitious and wants to prioritise achieving as much as she can.
‘She also loves to travel and party, but at just 29 she’s not ready for the next chapter yet.’
The couple’s statement read: ‘We’ve been laughing as we write this because we never, ever, in a million years thought we would be the couple to announce a breakup.

‘We fell madly in love in 2014, split in 2019, and then spent five years living apart.
‘We decided to give it one last try in August 2023, and we’ve spent the past year doing everything we can to make it work; however, we recently decided to call it quits.

The pair also attended Glastonbury festival earlier this year before Maya was flown by helicopter to the ITV studios, where she hosts Love Island spin-off show Aftersun live on a Sunday night.
In recent weeks, Stormzy has launched House Party, a bar he co-founded in Soho, London, which has been transformed to look and feel like an old-school house party.
Maya shared a video on her Instagram Story from the star-studded launch night on June 6, where the couple were joined by the likes of Louise Redknapp and Julie Adenuga.
Stormzy released his debut EP Dreamers Disease the same year he began dating Maya, with the pair referring to 2014 as the year they “fell madly in love”.
In their statement, they retold their love story, documenting the five years they spent living separate lives.
During that time, Maya was engaged to American basketball star Ben Simmons, but they called off their engagement after eight months.
Maya and Stormzy first split in 2019 amid speculation the rapper had been unfaithful, later confessing in the song Lessons: ‘I looked at the information and then I thought you’d dig it up.’
