Maura Higgins has been the talk of the town this week.

The Love Island bombshell made waves after she was spotted sharing a kiss with TOWIE's Pete Wicks at the star-studded Pride of Britain afterparty, held in the chic Red Bar at London's Grosvenor House Hotel.

After much speculation, Maura, 33, and Strictly Come Dancing's Pete, 36, seemed to confirm their relationship status with that kiss, despite Pete claiming he was 'single' earlier that evening. Given Maura's stunning appearance, it's hardly shocking that Pete was drawn to her.

Taking to Instagram, Maura dazzled her followers with snaps showcasing the stunning gown she donned for the awards ceremony. Fans were unanimous in their reaction.

In one series of photos, the gorgeous brunette gazes seductively into the camera, flaunting her figure in a daring black and white dress while posing next to her hotel room bed. The sophisticated outfit was accessorised with long black gloves, and Maura elevated her look with elegant pearl jewellery, a classic Hollywood wave in her hair, and radiant makeup.

One simply wrote: "Audrey Hepburn," while another dropping a gif of the 'Breakfast at Tiffany's' icon. Someone else chimed in saying: "Nobody does Hollywood glamour like Maura Higgins!" While another added: "So vintage, love it."

From Ballymahon, Ireland, to the bright lights of Tinseltown, Maura is taking the US by storm as the new host of Love Island USA Aftersun. Yet, it's her romantic life that's making headlines these days.

She's been openly backing Pete Wicks through all his big moments in recent months, posting a heartfelt 'Proud of you' on her Insta stories for Pete's memoir release in September. However, it's not just support they're sharing, as Maura and Pete have been dancing together on TikTok amid his Strictly Come Dancing stint.

Maura called it quits with her stuntman boyfriend, Bobby Holland Hanton back in March, Meanwhile Pete, who used to be known for his wild dating life, has been talking about wanting to find someone special to settle down with recently.
