How Ruben Dias used secret weapon to win over Maya Jama as pals claim couple are plotting major next move

HER enviable charisma and curves make Maya Jama everyone's type on paper, so winning her affection was arguably tougher than landing the treble for her Manchester City boyfriend, Ruben Dias. But eight months on since they quietly started dating, we can reveal the secret weapon Ruben used to score a future with the Love Island host - and pal's claims that they're planning to take a major step in their relationship.

It had been Maya and Stormzy's second go at a relationship. They first split after five years together in 2020 not long before Maya got engaged to NBA player Ben Simmons following a whirlwind romance. Advertisement While both relationships weren't meant to be forever, the experiences helped clarify what the presenter wanted - and didn't want - from her next partner. In the weeks before dating footballer Ruben, Maya said: 'The next person I meet I want to marry and have kids with, so obviously I'm feeling fussy.' Our sources say her surprise connection with 28-year-old Ruben caught Maya by surprise - and his commitment early on in dating secured their fate. Pals claim they're now putting plans in place to move in together as their relationship goes from strength to strength. A source told The Sun: 'Maya is incredibly headstrong and confident. After everything she's been through, she knows her worth and won't settle for anything less. Advertisement 'Her relationship with Ruben is totally different to when she was with Stormzy . She's described how they were babies when they met and his career was more established than Maya's. 'This time, she's come into the relationship on a level playing field as two hugely successful individuals. 'They've both reached their career goals and the world is their oyster, so they're now at a stage where they can focus more on their love lives.

'She was impressed that he wasn't looking to gain from their popularity as a couple. He made her feel it was a genuine connection from the off. 'Even though they know their romance is bound to attract attention, they keep the details of their relationship strictly confidential, but he's been keen to post pictures of them together to let everyone know he's taken.

'I know what makes me happy and I know what I like — and this is no disrespect to anyone I've been in a relationship with, but if it's not that then I will leave it. 'My point I always try to make is that I am really, really happy and I have curated this lovely little life for myself and my friends.

Love Island feuds EXPLODE as tense game turns sour and islanders hit out at rivals

A LOVE Island feud has exploded as a tense game turned sour and Islanders hit out at their rivals. In an upcoming episode after Meet The Parents, the Islanders play the game 'couple goals' with Meg and Dejon as hosts. 4 A Love Island feud has exploded as a tense game turned sour and Islanders hit out at their rivals Credit: ITV 4 The Islanders are asked which couple is the most fake Credit: ITV It sees the pair read out questions which the Islanders will all answer in their couples as they select which couple they believe it applies to most. When the Islanders are asked the question, 'Which couple would you not want to go on a city break with?' Blu and Helena choose Harry and Shakira . Blu brazenly says: 'We went with Harry and Shakira . I think we all know the reason why - Harry might want to wife swap again.' To which Harry replies: 'You're better than that.' Read More on Love Island But that's not all, as the Islanders are then asked which couple is the most fake. Harry and Shakira choose Blu and Helena. When giving their reasons, Helena interjects, 'That's a cop out mate.' An unhappy Harry says: 'Hold on. Blu - after the conversation we had this morning and for you to say you don't want to go on a break because I'm going to wife swap, I think it is extremely fake.' Blu says: 'You've done it five times.' Most read in Love Island Things get more hostile when Toni and Cach answer, as Toni says: 'We've gone with Meg and Dejon. I feel like every time there is an argument between us you love to throw out 'I thought we were friends' - I feel like there have been many situations where you two have not been friends to me.' Love Island girls put an end to villa divide and have huge group hug Meg and Dejon choose Shakira and Harry, and Meg says: 'I feel like Shakira, you've made some very hurtful comments to me that we're not very nice and I've always been there for you.' Shakira is left less than impressed and says to Harry: 'The gloves are off now' as tensions flare, yet again, between the girls. The feud between the girls comes right after Throughout the series, the villa girls have been divided with two clear friendship groups emerging over the course of the ITV2 programme. On one side have been Shakira, Toni and Yasmin who have been fiercely loyal to one another and stood by each other in times of need whilst Meg and Helena, as well as Megan, have made up the other half of the main villa divide. The two groups have failed to see eye-to-eye until they appeared to put their difference aside in an unexpected moment on the programme. Just days after a huge row about the divide ensued during the show's explosive Grafties, the ladies decided to hug it out and put an apparent end to the bubbling feud between them. But with less than a week to go until someone is crowned Love Island champion, fans have insisted that the moment was a product-led decision amid ongoing speculation that show bosses want Meg and Helena to come across better. Fans have insinuated the move was a calculated way for Meg to appear friendlier after she was called out by her co-stars for the way she had made them feel throughout the series. Writing on X, formerly Twitter, after the scenes were aired, one viewer said: "It's the producers fault, they have protected Helena/Meg, producers have been watching online comments & need to fix it." A second added: "It's so fake they are not even touching Shakira in the hug." Someone else then posted: "Producers want Meg to win so much they made her promise to be more friendly?"
