Love Island star Maura Higgins opens up about sex and why she'd never fake an orgasm

Love Island star Maura Higgins has revealed that she can't understand why any woman would fake an orgasm.

The Longford beauty, who was praised for being so open about sex on the hit series, believes women should be honest with their partner if they aren't being satisfied in the bedroom.

She said: "Oh my god, I would never do that (fake an orgasm).

"Like never. Why would I bother? Women should not (put men) before their own (pleasure).

"If the guy is getting pleasure, then he should pleasure the woman exactly the same way in return."

She added: "I don't know why women are scared to ask... Sex is a natural thing. Be open if you are not happy with how it is going, but don't fake a f**king orgasm.

"He is not going to fake it for you. No guy is going to fake it, are they? I don't know why some girls do that.

"Like, some of my friends would, and I am like, 'Why? Why would you do that?'"

In an interview with Sunday Life magazine, the 28-year-old also recalled how she couldn't wait to get into the villa.

She said: "I kept thinking, 'Get me into the villa now'. I wasn't even nervous walking in.

"I was on lockdown for so long, I was like, 'Oh for god's sake, get me in there now'. And I remember Elma walking in with me, and she was so nervous.

"I was telling her to relax and take a deep breath. I was just helping her through it."
