Love Island presenter Maya Jama has set social media alight with a series of stunning posts from Paris, where she was attending a custom dress fitting, while news emerges of a significant change to her filming schedule for the upcoming series.
Daring Paris Fashion Moment
The 31-year-old television star shared a breathtaking mirror selfie with her Instagram followers, showcasing her toned legs in a plunging white corset-style leotard. She completed the striking ensemble with black ankle boots that elongated her silhouette, wearing minimal makeup and letting her brunette waves fall effortlessly past her shoulders.
Maya captioned the post, revealing her excitement about being in the French capital for custom dress fittings, writing: "Custom dress fittings in Paris are what my little girl dreams were made of." She humorously added clarification about her revealing outfit: "This is obv not the dress for the wallads [slang meaning foolish men] I just thought the twirl top half looked cute."
Parisian Lifestyle and Fashion Galas
While Maya didn't disclose her specific reasons for being in Paris beyond the dress fitting, she appeared to be thoroughly enjoying her time in the city. In another post, she shared a video of herself drinking red wine while wearing a black baseball cap and crew neck jumper, presenting a more casual look.
She accompanied this with the caption: "Spend 2 mins in a city, get a wine and it starts feeling like I could live here." This Parisian excursion follows closely on the heels of another high-profile fashion appearance, where Maya turned heads in a racy sheer lace gown at The Business of Fashion Presents VOICES 2025 Gala Dinner and Party in Chipping Norton just last Friday.
Love Island Schedule Changes for Romance
The glamorous Paris trip comes amid reports that Maya has shaken up her filming schedule for the next series of Love Island: All Stars to accommodate her relationship with Manchester City footballer Rúben Dias. According to sources, the couple's romance has prompted Maya to plan flights home during filming breaks for the upcoming January All Stars edition in Cape Town.
This represents a significant departure from her normal routine, where the host typically moves into a private villa for the duration of filming. The 2026 series will run for six weeks, longer than usual, making these planned trips back to the UK particularly noteworthy.
An insider explained the situation, noting: "Maya and Ruben are happier than ever and will be keen to see each other whilst she films All Stars, which is back for an extended run in 2026. He's extremely unlikely to be able to take time out of training and visit Cape Town, so Maya will fly back when she can around ITV's schedule."
Maya is expected to fly to Cape Town in the first week of January, with the filming schedule coinciding with a congested run of games for Manchester City, making Ruben's travel to South Africa practically impossible during the football season.
