Maura Higgins and Giovanni Pernice share loved up photos as she says 'I'm yours'

Maura Higgins and Giovanni Bernice are no longer being shy about their blossoming romance after weeks of secret dating.

The super sexy couple have thrown open the doors to their new romance by going fully Instagram official – with 30-year-old Love Island babe Maura declaring her adoration to the Strictly hunk.

Maura and Giovanni set tongues wagging last month when they were spotted attending a football game together in London – leading to speculation they had been growing close for weeks before.

And now the reality beauty and the 30-year-old dance professional seem to be giving fans what they have asked for – confirmation and loved up photos.

Uploading the image to her own Instagram feed, Maura wrote the simple caption: “I’m yours” alongside a large red heart emoji.

Meanwhile, Giovanni confirmed the romance with an Insta Official snap of his own.

Over on his own feed, he shared a snap of himself with his nose rubbed against Maura’s own nose, with a photos showing them both beaming with happiness.

Maura had her hand on his neck and another dropped over his shoulder, while Giovanni had his hands wrapped around the reality star’s waist.

Fans of both TV stars were overjoyed by the romantic images, with one writing: “I am so here for this.”

Giovanni’s fellow Strictly Come Dancing star friend Neil Jones predicted the star and Maura would go all the way with their romance – and he thinks it won’t be long before the pair start having children together.

Neil wrote in the comments section of Giovanni’s post: “You two are so cute. Please name your first child after me.”

And another fan backed the sentiment, writing: "Please make babies" in the comment's feed.

While Gio and Maura both cemented their love for each other by posting red heart emojis as comments beneath each others’ posts.

Earlier in the week, Maura and Giovanni had shared snaps of themselves together on Instagram via the Stories function.

While the past few weeks have been awash with rumours a hot romance was building between the pair – with rumours intensifying when Maura went to support Giovanni at a dance performance in Blackpool.

A source told the MailOnline earlier this month: "Gio and Maura are very much a couple. Everyone know he’s played the field in the past but he is serious about Maura. He’s smitten with her, they’ve become close really quickly and are spending a lot of time together in Blackpool.

"She’s become pals with all of the cast and crew of Him and Me too and they think she’s great. Maura has also met Anton and they got on brilliantly."
