Maya, 30, left her brunette locks in a naturally straight style and abandoned her cosmetics to let her glowing complexion shine though.
Stripped to a red floral low-cut swim top with matching bottoms she posed for the cameras with a glass of whitewine in her hand.
She then pointed to a mark on her shoulder and said: "Cydney thought this was a birth mark.
"In fact it was the time I tried to curl my hair. Szzz."
The stunning star then went onto introduce her friend to her Instagram followers.
She said: Sorry I haven't introduced you to everyone yet. This is Cydney she is from Baghdad."
The pair giggled and Maya added: "She's from West London."
With only days to go until the Love Island final, the cast returned to the villa for the Islander Jury and sent another couple pair packing.
In scenes that will air on Sunday night, former cast members made their epic return to make the huge decision.
Former Islanders including Harry Cooksley's ex Emma Munro, Billykiss Azeez, and smitten couple Harrison Solomon and Lauren Wood, voted for the couple they wanted to boot.
While The Sun can't reveal their identities at this crucial stage of the ITV2 dating show, we can share that Islanders made their decisions having watched back footage and been shocked by what they saw.
A source said: 'This couple have been a big part of this series so this is a shocking moment.
'But having watched it back, ex- Islanders have become privy to action they weren't fully aware of and it left them more than questioning the integrity of this connection.
'The couple were sent packing on Friday afternoon and the scenes will air on Sunday.'
It comes after the Islanders were enjoying their final dates on Friday night and an unexpected text changed the villa's loving atmosphere.
Toni received the text which read: 'Islanders. The public have been voting for the most compatible couple.
"The couple with the fewest votes and therefore dumped from the island tonight is Connor and Megan."
Fans were quick to comment on social media and one wrote: "The producers are playing games because there's no way people voted Megan and Connor out instead of Meg and manipulative Dejon. I'm absolutely flabbergasted."
Another added: "Bro they had me sitting on edge of my seat with that music, waiting to celebrate that Dejon and Meg got voted off…..just for it to be Megan and Connor."
It comes following Thursday's brutal double dumping which saw Helena Ford and Blu Chegini booted out of the villa.

ITV confirms Big Brother 2025 start date and 'new look' for show
Big Brother UK will return later this year and fans should gear up for the show having a completely new look It's been a whirlwind few hours following the Love Island final, and the excitement doesn't stop there. ITV has now confirmed the return of Big Brother later this year, with a brand new look for the 2025 show. The upcoming series, which has been confirmed by the broadcaster to air in September, will mark its third instalment after having switched from Channel 4 back in 2000. A fresh batch of contestants will enter the house, under Big Brother 's watchful eye. Presenters AJ Odudu and Will Best will return to screens, with the show tipped to offer fresh twists, elaborate challenges, intense nominations and live evictions, as the housemates compete for the all-important cash prize. ITV shared some exciting teasers for fans of the popular reality show during the ad break for Love Island, including images of the revamped colourful eye logo, suggesting that the wheels are already in motion. One of the most exciting parts of Big Brother for fans is the big house reveal, which always switches up theme every year in a bold and stirking new design, so we will need to keep our eyes peeled for those updates. Meanwhile, Big Brother Late and Live is also set to return, offering an additional serving of exclusive Big Brother content, including heated discussions and hot takes from the celebrity guest panel. And those who like to indulge in 24/7 action will be glad to know that the Live Stream will also return, airing seven nights a week exclusively on ITVX, following the extra drama and gossip of Big Brother Late and Live. While the exact premiere date for the new series remains unconfirmed, it's believed to launch either on Sunday, September 28 or Monday, September 29. The 2024 series crowned Ali Bromley as the champion, securing a staggering 52 per cent of the final vote. The latest Celebrity Big Brother series also captivated audiences worldwide when it aired earlier this year with a string of well-known faces. Coronation Street's Jack P Shepherd clinched the title just months ahead of his wedding to Hanni Treweek. However, the spotlight of that series was firmly on Love Island contestant Chris Hughes and singer JoJo Siwa. The pair formed a close bond during their time in the house, although they maintained it was purely platonic. After leaving the show, former Dance Moms star JoJo ended her relationship with Kath Ebbs and soon after went public with Chris. Romantic sparks are not uncommon among housemates, with Jordan Sangha and Henry Southan also striking up romance during the 2023 series. However, the pair announced their surprising separation in April. There's no doubt eagle-eyed fans will be on the lookout for yet more romance as the 2025 series returns later this year.

Revealed: The 'hurt and upset' Queen's scathing comment about Harry and Meghan's wedding - and what she REALLY thought about the couple's A-list guest list
The Queen's felt left out and 'hurt' by some of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's plans for their wedding at Windsor Castle and exasperatedly told her cousin: 'But it's my house - and I'm paying for it', it was claimed today. Her Majesty is said to have disapproved of their guestlist and the couple's preference to invite 'random' celebrities over family members in May 2018. 'That was just yet another irritation for the Queen', a seasoned royal expert claimed today. Elizabeth II was also apparently 'really annoyed' the Sussexes went directly to the Archbishop of Canterbury to ask him to marry them at St George's Chapel - even though she was Defender of the Faith and Supreme Governor of the Church of England. Harry's grandmother was more excited about Princess Eugenie's wedding in October that year only for the Duchess of Sussex to announce she was pregnant on the day, it was also claimed today. Journalist and royal biographer Sally Bedell Smith has claimed the timing of the Sussexes' happy news had been 'rude'. Ms Bedell Smith made the claims as she described her conversations with Her Majesty's late cousin Lady Elizabeth Anson, who spoke to the Queen daily towards the end of her life. The monarch was 'upset' at not being fully involved in Harry and Meghan's wedding plans in the months and weeks beforehand, Sally said in a new podcast. Her cousin Lady Elizabeth Anson tried to console her by telling her she could 'look forward' to Royal Ascot and Princess Eugenie 's wedding. However, the Queen replied: 'But it's my house. And I'm paying for it'. The late monarch was said to have been peeved about the couple's decision to put A-listers and 'random' celebrities such as Oprah Winfrey, George Clooney on the guestlist over family members. The Royal Family paid for the wedding, including the service, music, flowers and reception. All 600 guests were invited to a lunchtime reception at St George's Hall, hosted by the Queen followed by an evening bash for 200 VIPs at Frogmore House, hosted by Harry's father. But Harry and Meghan had invited people that 'barely knew' knew them and the Royal Family, it was claimed today. Born in Windsor Castle, Lady Elizabeth, a great-niece of the Queen Mother and a goddaughter of King George VI, was a high-society party planner known as Liza to friends and family. The Queen's first cousin arranged the Queen's 80th birthday party and planned society weddings for more than 50 years. Sally Bedell Smith told American royal commentator Kinsey Schofield's Unfiltered YouTube show: 'Harry and Meghan just disinvited or didn't invite a whole group of family and cousins. The children of the Prince and Princess Michael of Kent and of the Gloucesters. 'She [Meghan] and Harry just "exed" them out of the guest list and they added all these other random people who barely even knew the Royal Family. That was just yet another irritation for the Queen'. 'So she was predisposed to be very fond of him, to love him, and I think it was a real shock for her when he began treating her discourteously after he and Meghan got together', Sally said. Lady Elizabeth comforted her in their daily phone calls by saying she could really look forward to Eugenie's wedding. She told the Queen: "This is going to be your family wedding. And it was it was because Harry and Meghan had they invited people they barely knew'. She told the Queen: "Just concentrate on Royal Ascot and then concentrate on the real family wedding in October". MailOnline has asked a spokesman for the Duke and Duchess of Sussex to comment. She died five years ago at the age of 79 and was the Queen's confidante later in life, affectionately calling the monarch 'Jemima' and her 'Number One Lady'. Ms Bedell Smith revealed earlier this year on her popular Substack what Liza claimed Queen Elizabeth II herself thought of the Sussexes and their behaviour. Meghan was apparently 'full of charm' and appeared 'natural, intelligent, and thoughtful' after she became engaged to Harry in 2017. But as the wedding approached, Meghan allegedly became increasingly 'bossy' and Liza said the Queen was privately 'very worried'. Ms Bedell Smith wrote: 'When we spoke two weeks before the May 19 wedding, Liza had just heard from the Queen. 'The Number One Lady—I call her Jemima—says the jury is out on whether she likes Meghan,' said Liza. 'My Jemima is very worried.' In Liza's view, 'Harry is besotted and weak about women. We hope but don't quite think she is in love. We think she engineered it all.' Liza apparently said: 'It's worrying that so many people are questioning whether Meghan is right for Harry. The problem, bless his heart, is that Harry is neither bright nor strong, and she is both'. The cracks apparently appeared in February 2018. Liza claimed Harry wrote to her and said that his grandmother was 'content' with the way the wedding plans were coming along. But Sally Bedell Smith wrote that Liza had said: 'When I spoke with the Queen, she said she is not at all content'. Ms Bedell Smith wrote: 'According to Liza, the Queen was dismayed that Harry had asked the Archbishop of Canterbury to perform the wedding service in St. George's Chapel without first requesting permission from the Dean of Windsor. 'Harry seems to think the Queen can do what she wants, but she can't,' said Liza. 'On the religious side, it is the Dean of Windsor's jurisdiction.' As a result, Liza said that 'Harry has blown his relationship with his grandmother. She said she was really upset. I was shocked when the Queen told me this, how she was so saddened. I had no idea about the conversation, that he was rude to her for ten minutes. They had tea with her the day before yesterday. She was trying to find out about the wedding dress, and Meghan wouldn't tell her.'.' Liza at this point predicted that Meghan could 'turn into nothing but trouble', remarking that the Suits actress 'sees things in a different way'. Following these February rows, towards the end of April, Liza claimed that 'the Queen and Harry have patched things up'. Harry apparently visited her alone to smooth things over and later wrote to with more wedding details. Sally Bedell Smith wrote: 'Liza also said that Meghan's father, Thomas Markle, was 'frightened of coming to the wedding.' I asked her if Meghan was being bossy. 'So I gather,' Liza replied, 'Very much so.' 'My Jemima is very worried', Liza apparently added. She also said ominously: 'The wedge between the brothers is really too bad'.

Listen wherever you get your podcasts now. Thomas Markle did not attend the wedding due to health problems. Harry's father walked her down the aisle. Meghan threw herself into royal duties with her husband and then fell pregnant. Sally Bedell Smith wrote on her Substack: 'By late February 2019 when Liza and I spoke on the phone, she said 'I don't trust Meghan an inch. To begin with, she was not bad—a straightforward starlet, used to public speaking and charity work. The wedge between the brothers is really too bad.'.' At that time the Queen would visit her cousin for dinner at her London home but an increasingly frail Prince Philip would stay at home. Liza became ill with lung cancer but continued to work despite breathing problems and spent time with the Queen, who made her a Commander of the Royal Victorian Order - an honour only given to those who have given outstanding personal service to a British monarch. She died in November 2020. MailOnline has asked a spokesman for the Duke and Duchess of Sussex to comment. Lady Elizabeth Anson was born at Windsor Castle during World War II and with King George VI as a godfather, she grew up surrounded by, and on first name terms with, the royals. Lady Elizabeth was also royally connected (her mother, a Bowes-Lyon, was a niece of the Queen Mother) but she was also one of the Queen's closest friends. When she married, the then 20-year-old Princess Anne was a bridesmaid, and her society cameraman brother Patrick (the Earl of) Lichfield, who gave her away, was — along with the Earl of Snowdon — the royals' go-to photographer. For almost 60 years she presided over London's party scene with a ruthless efficiency. From royalty to celebrity her business, Party Planners, organised the capital's best and most lavish celebrations. She first decided to be a party planner when she was 17. She was working as a receptionist at the Hyde Park Hotel in London, but she fell down a flight of stairs and injured herself. The fall meant she needed to find a job that would enable her to work from home, and was inspired at having to organise her own debutante party when she realised she could make a living from planning celebrations. Her first event was for the late Queen Mother. 'She was hosting a party for one of her godchildren,' Lady Elizabeth previously told Mail on Sunday. 'I remember charging very little and receiving a letter from the Queen Mother telling me to double the invoice.' She hosted bashes for everyone from Baroness Thatcher and Sir Mick Jagger, to Tom Cruise and Bill Clinton. Weddings were a speciality: there was pop star Sting's to Trudie Styler to the slightly more reserved nuptials for Crown Prince Pavlos of Greece (to heiress Chantal Miller). When Prince William married Kate Middleton in 2011, the Queen asked her to organise a party for all the visiting royal guests. By then she was a veteran of royal party planning. No palace event, it seemed, was complete without input from Lady Elizabeth. She arranged the Queen's 80th birthday party and that to mark the 50th anniversary of her coronation. In April 2021, the Queen

Love Island producers 'forced to buy more condoms' as unaired scenes turned 'messy'
Another series of Love Island has sadly come to an end as millions watched Toni and Cach take the crown last night - but one raunchy secret was kept on the downlow - until now... Last night, millions watched on as Toni and Cach took home the crown in what has been named as the raunchiest Love Island series yet. The 12th series of the iconic ITV2 reality show had more arguments than we can count, but there was reportedly a lot more going on behind closed doors as producers OG fans who watched the show back from 2015 will remember ITV showing some NSF work scenes, most memorably the explicit 'over the covers' scene with Terry and Emma in season 2. Now, things are much more reserved, but it doesn't mean things don't happen off camera. It comes after Maya Jama shared her true feelings over Harry and Shakira's reunion. Spilling all the tea to Christine Lampard on Tuesday morning's Lorraine the day after the final, Aftersun panellist Joe Baggs revealed this had been the 'raunchiest' season in history - with producers having to make one huge change to cater to the contestants. Speaking to Christine asked whether it was true that it had been the raunchiest series to date. Letting ITV viewers in on some behind the scenes raunchy secrets, Joe said: "Yes. There's been a lot going on in that bedroom. I actually went in to the bedroom. "They had a night where the camera was off and it was quite a mess," he laughed. "Apparently they had to bring in extra condoms, extra protection for this series of Love Island and they used them all up. "I actually saw quite a few packets on the floor, so..." he said as Christine expressed her shock. This series, fans were left shocked during one particular scene between Harrison, Lauren, Harry and Helena. As the Islanders got cosy in bed, Harrison and Lauren decided it wasn't time for lights out just yet - as he reached over to ask Harry and Helena if he could borrow a condom. Harrison could be seen reaching over to Helena and Harry's bed via the night cam, as he asked: "Do you have a condom?" Harry and Helena could be seen in hysterics as Helena quickly pulled one out the drawer, with Harry passing it over. The couple then got under the covers, as the cameras panned to them kissing - but not much more was shown. And just days before the final, fans were left "horrified" during some very raunchy bedroom scenes between Meg and Dejon. After kissing and making up following their huge spat after date night, Meg and Dejon were filmed getting hot and steamy under the blankets, but viewers were less than impressed as they called the scenes 'disgusting'.
