Love Island fans can't believe Maura's transformation as old school pictures emerge

Love Island viewers have come across old pictures of Maura Higgins a decade before her stint on the show.

The Irish model, 28, blew everyone away when she entered the ITV villa over a week ago, with many questioning if she'd had plastic surgery.

Now, pictures of the beauty taken a decade ago reveal just how much she has changed.

In the resurfaced images, taken when she was back at school, Maura looks unrecognisable as she sports much darker hair and a thick fringe.

While Maura now opts for a dewy, understated makeup look, back in 2009 she was clearly partial to a more gothic eyeliner.

In one photo, she grins with her pal as she wears a statement pink leather belt and a pair of dangling earrings.

Meanwhile, in another Maura smiles sweetly in her school uniform – a far cry from the flirty seductress seen on screens.

As the pictures did the rounds online, fans couldn't believe how different she looked.

One shared a snap from her year book with pals, and wrote: "Guess who this is (spoiler alert: it's Maura). I guess there's hope for us all".

These aren't the only images of Maura that have gone viral since she strutted into the villa.

Resurfaced modelling shots also show the TV star in a very different light, as she smolders in a purple bikini , showing off her naturally slim physique.

Her lips also appear to be thinner in the 2012 snaps, as supposed to the plumped-up glossy pout she's sported around the villa so far this series.
