The Love Island star, 33, has been packing in the fun ahead of her jungle stint

The reality star also wore a pair of black heels and complimented her outfit with a matching handbag.    

Maura has been packing in the fun ahead of her  jungle stint and on Wednesday she was dressed to the nines for the House of CB Christmas party in London.

Just days earlier she was also spotted enjoying a final date with her new boyfriend Pete Wicks. 

The TOWIE star, 36, and Maura were first linked back in August, and last month confirmed their relationship with a PDA-filled display in London.

For their date night seeing pianist Ludovico Einaudi at the London Palladium, Maura flashed her toned legs in a white frilly skirt which she wore with a black velvet waistcoat.

She boosted her height with pointy heels and held a simple clutch while styling her glossy brunette hair straight.

By her side Strictly star Pete wore a smart black suit and a roll neck and clutched his phone.

The pair, who first met back in 2019 after Maura’s stint on Love Island, looked happy and relaxed together.

Despite Pete being linked to his Strictly dance partner Jowita Przystal, it appears Maura and Pete are now spending more time together.

At the end of October the Maura and Pete were seen kissing in the street outside Gloria restaurant in Shoreditch.

A few days before Maura had broken her silence on the rumours surrounding her romance with Pete, while appearing on the We Need To Talk podcast with Paul Brunson.

When Paul asked Maura if she and Pete ‘were a thing’, Maura told the host: ‘We just get on very, very well. I adore him, he’s an amazing person.

‘Do you know what’s 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. It’s very abusive. We abuse each other. Very nasty, it’s hilarious.’ 

It comes after Maura recently opened up about her relationship with Pete on the We Need To Talk podcast with Paul Brunson

It was previously reported that I’m A Celebrity bosses had set their sights on Maura after boxer Tommy Fury withdrew at the last minute

The show will launch on Sunday 17th, with the former Love Island star, 33, expected to make a later arrival in camp alongside Rev Richard Coles, 62.

It was previously reported that I’m A Celebrity bosses had set their sights on Maura after boxer Tommy Fury withdrew at the last minute.

ITV were then eyeing up Molly-Mae Hague’s best friend Maura to take his place in the jungle, with bosses banking on the Irish beauty to spill the beans about her pal.

A source told The Sun: ‘With Tommy Fury pulling out it gave show bosses the opportunity to look at other Love Island stars and Maura stood out as the perfect candidate.

‘She’ll bring a bit of glamour to the jungle and make a brilliant campmate because she’s got a great sense of humour and is bound to get on with everyone.

‘It’s shaping up to be a strong year for woman on I’m A Celebrity this year.’

With Tommy out of the running, it was said to have paved the way for Maura’s appearance on the show as it meant that there wouldn’t be two stars from the 2019 series of the famous dating show in the jungle.
