So, what did the Love Island star say about her love life? Why are viewers certain it’s Pete? And what exactly has happened between the duo? We have all the deets…

I’m A Celebrity star Maura Higgins on her love life
Maura didn’t admits that Pete is her boyfriend. But she did admit to dating someone before her stint in the ITV show.
Last night, Maura got candid during a tête-à-tête with Oti Mabuse, which later saw Rev Richard Coles and Dean chime in.
It all began with Oti asking Maura if she’s single, to which the Love Island star said: “I am, but I was seeing someone before I came in. But I am not in a relationship.”
Richard asked Maura: “Was it exclusive?” The star was quick to reply: ” I don’t know.”
Oti asked if Maura is “just talking” to that someone and if it wasn’t “official”. “Well, I already know him,” Maura said.
Dean got the hint that Maura was perhaps talking about Pete, so he asked if it’s someone people know.
Maura laughed as Dean admitted: “I think that I know who it is. Everyone thinks they know who it is, except Richard. Maybe he wasn’t a TOWIE fan.”
For the unversed, Pete found fame on The Only Way Is Essex.
