Love Island favourite Maura Higgins confirms new romance in loved up snap

Maura Higgins has confirmed her new romance on Instagram sharing a snap holding hands with her new man.

The Love Island star has been rumoured to have been secretly dating Strictly Come Dancing professional Giovanni Pernice for the last month.

And it appears the Longford-born star has finally confirmed that she is very much loved up in her latest post.

Posting a snap to Instagram, where she boasts over 3.2 million followers, the 30-year-old showcased her locked hands with her new beau as they enjoyed a romantic dinner.

It is the first time Maura has shared a social media snap that featured her new love interest since rumours first began to swirl.

The loved-up snap comes days after the duo were spotted sharing a cuddle while attending a venue in Blackpool, where Giovanni is currently performing.

Last week, the lovebirds finally went public with their romance as they were spotted enjoying several dates together.

First they were spied at the Euro cup football match in London before being spotted in Blackpool enjoying a romantic cuddle.

Maura had travelled up to Blackpool to support Giovanni while he performed alongside Anton Du Beke in their show, Me and Him.

Maura's latest romance came just a few short months after she confirmed that she had split from fellow Love Island star, Chris Taylor.
