Love Island host Maya Jama back with ex Stormzy after string of secret visits to his house
LOVE Island host Maya Jama is back with rapper Stormzy — finally ending rumours she was dating actor Leonardo DiCaprio.
The telly beauty has been making secret regular visits to her ex’s home as they attempt to keep things low-key.
Maya, 28, and Stormzy, 29, had dated from 2015 to 2019.
The musician later admitted he had made a huge mistake which led to their split, adding: “I still love her, definitely, with all my heart.”
Model Maya has since dated basketball star Ben Simmons, 26, reportedly getting engaged before splitting last August.
She then hooked up with Hollywood star DiCaprio, 48, on both sides of the Atlantic – but later dismissed reports of a romance as “silly”
A pal explained: “The Leo thing got a bit out of hand.
“They partied a couple of times in London and New York but it never developed into anything more serious.
“The truth is she’s actually back in regular contact with Stormzy and has been heading to his house to meet up away from the spotlight.
“She visited him a couple of times before her recent holiday to Thailand and it sounds as though they’ve really clicked again.
“The connection never went away.
“They’re both keen to tiptoe around it a bit rather than throw themselves into anything public but they’re enjoying being close again.”
The couple’s emotional connection was clear to see when they partied together at last year’s GQ Man of the Year awards.
Surrey-based Stormzy again expressed his regret over the split in a BBC documentary last autumn.
The 2019 Glastonbury headliner told Louis Theroux: “My break-up, that was probably the biggest catalyst for growth as a man.
“It was, like, ‘OK, you made a mistake and you lose someone you loved, someone you cared for, someone who is special to you’.
“That’s probably the biggest loss a man can have, isn’t it?
“Away from someone passing away, that’s the biggest loss you can have.
“The whole f***ing palaver that surrounded that situation, do you know what I mean?
“There were other things in terms of mistakes I’d made.
“I didn’t do what a man should do to fully appreciate, love and care for his woman.”
