Inside Maya Jama and Ruben Dias' romantic holiday as they share loved-up snaps
In true Maya Jama form, she appears to have casually confirmed her romance with boyfriend Ruben Dias after months of speculation while reclining on a yacht off the Amalfi Coast. Since the Love Island host, 30, and the Manchester City centre-back, 28, were spotted celebrating New Year's Eve together, there's been blurry evidence of their blossoming romance, but nothing from the horse's mouth – until now. Confirming their romance, Maya shared a selection of snaps of a romantic boat trip with her new beau. Hidden away at the end of a carousel of images posted on Instagram, one snap showed the couple cosied up together and smiling at one another as they perched at the edge of a yacht. Fans loved this hard launch, which came just a few days after Maya shared brief snaps of Ruben on her Instagram story. Other images also showed the lavish spread of food they enjoyed, and Maya also shared a video of herself diving off the boat into the sparkling sea. Just days before the post from Maya, she shared a video of herself and Ruben enjoying some alone time near the romantic seaside town of Positano in Italy. The TV personality filmed Ruben rubbing suncream into his shoulders with the caption, 'Perve cam,' seemingly confirming months of speculation about their relationship. They looked to have a relaxed time on the private boat, bobbing off the coast, as Maya soaked in the rays and lip-synced songs on her Instagram Story. Ruben Dias is a Portuguese professional footballer, who plays centre-back for Manchester City and for his home country's national team. He is regarded as one of the world's best defenders, having signed to Man City in 2020 for a reported €68 million (£57m). Ruben was in a relationship with Portuguese singer-songwriter April Ivy from 2018 to 2021. He has also been linked to Love Island star Arabella Chi. Maya and Ruben are thought to have first met at the European Music Awards (EMAs) in November, after which they followed each other on social media. Following their New Year's Eve rendezvous, Maya flew to Portugal to support Ruben at a football march in March, and the following month shewas spotted at his Wembley Stadium game. On April 28 suspicions were confirmed when footage emerged from The Sun, showing the couple kissing and hugging while attending YouTube personality KSI's Baller League football event at Copper Box Arena. Speaking about what she wants in a relationship these days, Maya revealed in an interview with the Standard in November 2024 that she's on the hunt for true love. 'I am so happy right now but the next person I meet I want to marry and have kids with, so obviously I'm feeling fussy. I've created such a nice life for myself alone and I don't want anyone who's not going to add to that'. She continued: 'I'm in this lovely bubble and I don't want you unless you make me happy. If you're not, I kind of don't need you.' Maya and Hide and Seek hitmaker Stormzy, 30, first met in October 2014 and began dating the following January. In 2020, they went their separate ways four years after officially becoming an item. In an interview with Louis Theroux on October 22, 2022, the Big For Your Boots rapper described the break-up as his 'biggest mistake' and the following month reunion rumours were shot down by Maya's team. He explained: 'My break-up, that was probably the biggest catalyst for growth as a man. It was like, OK, you made a mistake and you lose someone you loved, someone you cared for, someone who is special to you.' Speaking about the early days of their romance in January, Maya shared with The Sunday Times: 'We were so young when we met, just beginning our careers. I was starting at MTV. He'd not even released a single at that point. We were just little babies. That summer Maya and Stormzy were spotted chatting backstage at London's All Points East, where Stormzy was performing a headline set. After a few cryptic Instagram posts, they seemed to confirm their romance in various outings looking cosy, but the following July they shared a shock joint statement. More Trending Explaining their relationship 'didn't work,' they wrote: 'We still think the absolute world of each other, we still care and respect each other, we are still grateful for the time we've had together, and we are still friends and will always be friends.' A source told Mail Online of their split: 'Maya and Stormzy are very much on different pages when it comes to their future. 'Stormzy was keen to settle down, whereas Maya is enjoying her career, she's ambitious, and wants to prioritise achieving everything she possibly can. 'She also loves travelling and partying, at just 29 she's not ready for the next chapter just yet.' Got a story?

Famous TV presenter goes unnoticed as she leaves Wembley after Man City's FA Cup loss – would you have spotted her?
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) MAYA Jama went completely unnoticed as she slipped out of Wembley Stadium following Manchester City's shock FA Cup defeat yesterday. TV presenter Maya, 29, showed off her toned midriff in a black crop top and matching relaxed-fit jeans as she supported her boyfriend, Portugal star Rúben Dias, 28. Sign up for the Entertainment newsletter Sign up 7 Maya Jama went completely unnoticed as she slipped out of Wembley Stadium yesterday Credit: Curley 7 She showed off her toned midriff in a black crop top and matching relaxed-fit jeans Credit: James Curley But after City's surprise 1-0 loss to Crystal Palace, Maya faced a double blow - waiting more than 30 minutes to get to the station, surrounded by thousands of fans. The Love Island host kept a low profile as she left the stadium alongside a small group of friends. It marked a rare public show of support for the Manchester City defender, with Maya usually keeping her matchday appearances under the radar. Still, she received little attention from the crowd, who were too busy celebrating Palace's historic win to notice her. Maya and Rúben went public with their relationship last month after first meeting in November. The City defender was previously in a relationship with Love Island's Arabella Chi and Portuguese singer April Ivy before that. The centre-back kept his relationship with Maya a secret for months after initially meeting at the European Music Awards last year. But they have since gone public, recently looking loved up during a romantic lunch date in London. The couple were spotted at the The Summerhouse, which is a fancy seafood restaurant in London. It sits alongside the Grand Union Canal in Little Venice and is the perfect spot for an al fresco lunch. The £4.52 beauty buy Maya Jama swears by for a fresh-faced summer look, and you can nab it on TikTok Shop In April, they were seen out for the first time at a Ballers League game - headed up by KSI - in which Maya manages a team. Earlier in the month, Maya watched Rúben play at Wembley as City beat Nottingham Forest 2-0 in their FA cup semi-final. During the international break in March, Maya flew to Lisbon when Rúben played for Portgual. The former Radio 1 DJ was pictured in the stands at the José Alvalade Stadium when Portugal's beat Denmark 5-2. She was seen with a pal and glasses of wine in a VIP hospitality box - reserved usually for friends and family of players. Maya also posted a picture of the two celebrating together at their romantic fireside retreat at 3.30am the following morning. The snap is said to have been taken at the Rúben's home in the Cascais region of Portugal - with a swimming pool spotted in the picture. Maya was gifted a bouquet of roses on her return to the UK from Cape Town in February following the conclusion of the 2025 Love Island All Star season. The pair were then spotted wearing matching £5,000 Cartier 'LOVE' bracelets. Maya wore the pricey gift in the Instagram post before Rúben was spotted wearing the same item as he arrived for training in February. 7 The Love Island host kept a low profile as she left the stadium Credit: James Curley 7 She was joined by a small group of friends Credit: James Curley 7 She received little attention from the crowd Credit: Curley 7 They were too busy celebrating Palace's historic win to notice her Credit: Curley
