The 'Love Island' beauty has been snapped up by the fashion brand and will be the face of her own Christmas Edit, which will be her first ever-dedicated fashion range with boohoo.

She will also embark on a number of special projects with the company, the first of which will be revealed on 16th September.

Maura said: "I'm so proud of this opportunity I've been given by boohoo. It's a brand that I've loved since I was a young girl so partnering up with them is a very surreal feeling for me and I'm so grateful."

The star also took to Instagram to share her news and wrote: "IT'S OFFICIAL!!!!! I am now a @boohoo ambassador....honestly a dream come true for me. I am so proud of this opportunity.

"There are lots of exciting things in the pipeline & I cannot wait to show you guys...so keep your eyes peeled!!! (sic)."

Meanwhile, Maura - who finished fourth on 'Love Island' with Curtis Pritchard - recently revealed that she was worried about getting hate when she left the ITV2 show but has been thrilled at how positive the public has been.

She told Metro.co.uk: "I was expecting hate when I came out! I wasn't expecting people to be so nice. I thought I'd get hate because I was so opinionated in there, but it was all really nice. I was definitely surprised how positive it's all been."
