The Hide and Seek hitmaker, 30, and Maya first met in October 2014 at the Red Bull<\/strong><\/a> Culture Clash and began dating the following January.<\/p>\n

The famous couple went their separate ways in 2020, four years after becoming an item in 2016.<\/p>\n

Maya and Stormzy \u2013 real name Michael Ebenezer Kwadjo Omari Owuo Jr. \u2013 had tongues wagging after they reunited in November 2022 but at the time, Maya\u2019s team confirmed the claims they had reunited were unfounded and they weren’t in a relationship.<\/p>\n

In an interview with Louis Theroux on October 22, 2022, the Big For Your Boots rapper described the break-up as his \u2018biggest mistake.\u2019<\/p>\n

He explained: \u2018My 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.<\/p>\n

\u2018That\u2019s probably the biggest loss a man can have, isn\u2019t it? Away from someone passing away, that\u2019s the biggest loss you can have.\u2019<\/p>\n

Speaking about the early days of their romance in January 7, 2023, Maya shared: \u2018We were so young when we met, just beginning our careers. I was starting at MTV. He\u2019d not even released a single at that point. We were just little babies.<\/p>\n

She continued to The Sunday Times:<\/a> \u2018I\u2019m not naive to the fact that when you are a woman in the industry, most of the things that people want to talk about are your relationships. It\u2019s different for men. I\u2019d seen that happen to other people. I don\u2019t think either of us knew it was going to be such a big thing. <\/p>\n

\u2018We were just: we\u2019re young and in love and we\u2019re going to go for it and work really hard. We\u2019re just together. We never really did red carpets. We didn\u2019t do any of that stuff.\u2019 <\/p>\n

Maya and Ben Simmons enjoyed a whirlwind romance kicking off in the summer of 2021 \u2013 and were believed to have got engaged over Christmas a few months later.<\/p>\n

The couple chose not to publicly speak out about their relationship or engagement, but Maya didn\u2019t deny the proposal when grilled about it by comedian Mo Gilligan when they hosted the Brit Awards in February.<\/p>\n

Maya moved over to America, where the NBA player is based, but returned to the UK full-time when they split in August 2022.<\/p>\n

An insider had earlier claimed: \u2018Maya called off the engagement after things came to a head last month.<\/p>\n

\u2018She is not going back to New York now. It\u2019s heartbreaking for both of them, especially as they were so committed to each other.\u2019 <\/p>\n

Drake<\/h2>\n

Hold your horses, the Passionfruit hitmaker and Maya were not in a relationship, but he did mention her name in a track.<\/p>\n

The rapper, 36, teamed up with Headie One on the track, and left fans stunned by his casual name drop of the MTV presenter.<\/p>\n

\u2018Chubbs might jam this yute for a chain,\u2019 he spits when freestyling the first line, before quickly adding: \u2018And gave\u2005it\u2005to a sweet\u2005one, called that Maya Jama.\u2019<\/p>\n

Although fans couldn’t help but question what this meant for the duo, the star simply shrugged off the shout-out.<\/p>\n

We’re sure she was flattered though!<\/p>\n

Maya was spotted rekindling the flame<\/a> with her ex Stormzy,<\/a> 31 in 2023. Rumours swirled after the star was seen milling around London’s All Points East <\/a>festival on the day of her former beau’s headlining set.<\/p>\n

After onlookers whispered about their private backstage chats, the pair of exes teased followers with cryptic holiday snaps that hinted they were vacationing<\/a> as a couple. <\/p>\n

Finally appearing to confirm they were well and truly back together, Stormzy gripped Maya’s hand as the stars enjoyed a stroll in Greece.<\/p>\n

Pictured stepping out hand in hand in Greece, the former lovers appeared happier then ever to have found each other again.<\/p>\n

Unfortunately, despite being seen at various events together over the next year by July, the golden couple announced their split in a joint statement.<\/p>\n

Explaining their relationship \u2018didn\u2019t work,\u2019 they wrote: \u2018We still think the absolute world of each other, we still care and respect each other, we are still grateful for the time we\u2019ve had together, and we are still friends and will always be friends.\u2019<\/p>\n

Ruben Dias is Maya Jama’s current beau<\/a>. The Love Island presenter, 30, has been linked with the Manchester City defender, 27<\/a>, for some time now, and it has been reported that they met at the European Music Awards (EMAs) in November. <\/p>\n

The couple has been growing closer, and at the weekend, Maya was snapped supporting the footballer during his game at Wembley<\/a> Stadium on Sunday.<\/p>\n

She was first spotted with Portuguese international player Ruben on New Year\u2019s Eve, and Maya even flew to Portugal to watch Ruben play a game in March.<\/p>\n

The couple seemed to confirm their romance on April 28 as footage captured by  showed the couple kissing at hugging while attendingYouTube personality KSI\u2019s Baller League football event at Copper Box Arena on Monday night.<\/p>\n

Speaking about what she wants in a relationship these days, Maya revealed in an interview with the Standard<\/a> in November 2024 that she\u2019s on the hunt for true love.<\/p>\n

\u2018I am so happy right now but the next person I meet I want to marry and have kids with, so obviously I\u2019m feeling fussy. I\u2019ve created such a nice life for myself alone and I don\u2019t want anyone who\u2019s not going to add to that\u2019.<\/p>\n

She continued: \u2018I\u2019m in this lovely bubble and I don\u2019t want you unless you make me happy. If you\u2019re not, I kind of don\u2019t need you.<\/p>\n

\u2018One thing I\u2019ve learned: some people are like, \u201cI\u2019m lonely, I need someone.\u201d But the mission in life is to make yourself happy, then find someone who brings something that matches that to the table.\u2019<\/p>\n
