Love Island’s Maura Higgins and Chris Taylor confirm they’re a couple

Love Island stars Maura Higgins and Chris Taylor have finally confirmed they’re a couple and say they are “in love”.

The duo, who both starred in the 2019 series of the ITV2 show, both shared the same picture of themselves cuddling to their separate Instagram accounts to announced the happy news.

In the snap, Maura, 29, looked stunning in a pink satin dress as she leaned in close to her new man, 30.

Chris showed off his usual kooky style in camo shirt and tight ripped black jeans.

They look very loved-up in the snap as they posed with the lights of the city behind them.

Maura captioned the photo: “He’s mine. @christophertaylorofficial.”

Chris wrote on his page: “Turns out I fell in love with my best mate @maurahiggins.”

Maura and Chris were on the same series of Love Island but were never coupled up on the show.

She was coupled up with Curtis Pritchard and they stayed in a relationship for several months after leaving the villa in fourth place.

Chris left the villa with Harley Brash but they were never an official couple.

Maura and Chris have become close over the last few months and she has featured in several of his hilarious Instagram posts.

But they have always insisted they’re just friends, until now.

Chris had posted a video of them almost kissing which sparked many to question whether they were together.
