She says she's "not actually looking", and admits she's nervous about her next big relationshiop.
"It makes me nervous [about] who I'm going to be with next," Maya told The Evening Standard, "because if they aren't in the public eye already, maybe they're going to be brought into [it]."

One recently called her a "sl*t" on Instagram, to which Maya commented "pr*ck" on one of their photos.

Others targeted her over her wardrobe for Save Our Summer.
"I found it ridiculous," Maya told MailOnline.
