Maya Jama shows off HUGE bunch of red roses as fans claim they're 'from footballer Ruben Dias'
Today at 07:58 AM
MAYA Jama has revealed a huge bunch of red roses sent all the way to her South Africa in a sweet snap which has sparked speculation about her love life.
The Love Island All Stars anchor, 30, is currently hunkering down in Cape Town as she hosts the second-ever matchmaking show spin-off series on ITV2.
Yet while all the chat on-screen has centred on the Love Island alum coupling up, off the box, Maya has a blossoming romance of her own.
Fans now reckon it is footballer Ruben Dias, 27, who has forked out to ship the stunning bouquet overseas.
The ruby red roses were captured wrapped in matching red paper.
A note penned on white card was sandwiched between the stems yet, on the Instagram snap, the words were illegible.
Without addressing who they were from, Maya then continued to post snippets of her day.
She captured a tranquil lake filled with lily pads followed by a video showing her riding a bike.
Yet fans are convinced they are “from Ruben” after Maya spoke out on their relationship.
Ahead of All Stars she addressed the speculation and said: “This time it's not about my love life, it's about theirs — let's focus on the Islanders.”
Chatting to The Sun’s TV Biz at the show's Cape Town villa, Maya added: "Even before Love Island, people were interested in my love life, so I'm used to it."
She also hinted at how she first landed Ruben — at the MTV EMAs in September.
And she added: "Don't be shy to hit on people or get your feelings out there, because you never know what's going to happen and someone else could come in and steal your partner — so just go for it and don't hold back.
“No long games, and take action."
LOVE STORY
The Sun exclusively reported how the broadcasting beauty has been dating footballer Ruben for a month.
She met the Man City defender in September at the MTV Europe Music Awards, two months after announcing her split from rapper Stormzy.

She and Ruben were then spotted for the first time together in public on New Year's Eve, when they shared a romantic dinner.
A source said: "Maya and Ruben swapped details at the EMAs and have chatted since, but things went up a gear in early December.
"When Ruben got injured and had to miss the congested new year fixtures, he jumped at the chance to see in 2025 with Maya in Spain.
Spending New Year's Eve together was a real step forward in their relationship.
"They get on really well and obviously make a gorgeous couple, but it's early days."
A fan first saw them dining at Sa Capella in Ibiza to ring in 2025 and shared a blurry image online.
Social media sleuths noticed the Portuguese footballer had started following Maya online in November and she immediately followed him back.
Maya will be Ruben's second Love Island-linked beau, after a three-month fling with Arabella Chi, 33, last year.
