Maya Jama and Stormzy in near red carpet run-in amid romantic reunion rumours

Maya Jama and her ex-boyfriend Stormzy made sure to keep at an arms length on the The Fashion Awards red carpet tonight amid ongoing rumours that the former couple have rekindled their romance.

New Love Island host Maya, 28, turned heads as she arrived to the prestigious event at the Royal Albert Hall in London while dressed in a plunging black gown and a striking wide-brimmed black hat.

The much-loved TV presenter, who recently split with her fiancé Ben Simmons, oozed glamour on the red carpet as she posed for pictures – throwing her signature peace signs and pout before making her way into the event.

Meanwhile, rapper Stormzy also made sure that all eyes were on him as he rocked an all black ensemble – the same colour ex Maya opted for.

The Vossi Bop hitmaker, 29, looked dapper in a black coat and trousers, while accessorising with leather gloves and a scarf.

Despite fiery rumours that Maya and Stormzy are back together, following their split in 2019, the pair seemingly decided to avoid one another's paths on the red carpet as they arrived separately and posed for pictures alone.

The pair previously dated for four years between 2015 and 2019, and they are now said to be giving their romance another go following Maya's split with basketball star, Ben – who previously dated Kendall Jenner.

Lifting the lid on their rumoured rekindled romance, a source said: "Stormzy and Maya are together again. They're taking it slow but are very much back in each other's lives after a long time when they didn't speak or see each other."

Maya and Stormzy have been spotted at a number of events in recent weeks, with the most recent being the GQ Men of The Year awards last week.

According to The Sun, the pair were chatting 'for ages', and left the venue two minutes apart with an insider claiming they headed off somewhere else together.

The source told The Sun newspaper's Bizarre column: "They spent loads of time together at the afterparty and were chatting in a corner for ages. It seemed as though they went somewhere else together afterwards because she walked out and then he followed her out five minutes later."

However, Maya's representatives have since denied the rumours, insisting that she and Stormzy are simply 'good friends' again following their break-up back in 2019.

The romance rumours come after Stormzy previously confessed to making 'mistakes' during his relationship with Maya.

He also confessed that he didn't fully appreciate' the magic he had with Maya at the time – until he lost it all.

The Mirror has reached out to Maya and Stormzy's representatives for further comment on this story.
