In a new interview with Cosmopolitan UK, the Love Island personality, 30, admitted she and her co-star-turned-partner, also 30, find their ‘weird’ pimple-popping sessions ‘therapeutic’.
The glamour model also insisted she ‘hates being single’ and described herself as the ‘attention taker, not giver’ in relationships.

‘People will be surprised to know that me and Chris pick at each other’s spots all the time’, the brunette said. ‘Like if we have a pimple or anything, we just get in and we find it very therapeutic. It’s a bit weird.’
Sharing her views on dating, the reality star added to the publication: ‘I’m definitely a relationship person. I hate being single … I like to have somebody there giving me all the attention, 24/7. I’m the attention taker, not giver.’
The influencer – who went public with the former business development manager in December – recalled when she set up a romantic Harry Potter-themed date for her man, despite hating the fantasy novels.

Maura said: ‘He loves Harry Potter so I did a whole Harry Potter theme. I was basically in hell because I hated it, but I did it for him.’
The TV star also reflected on how she deals with negativity on social media, as well as her experience on Love Island.
Instagram star Maura stated: ‘I’d like to say I don’t respond to trolls but, yeah, sometimes I do. I don’t even know why. Sometimes, depending on my humour I’m just like ‘oh come on’ and then I’ll just go into a rant.
‘Since coming out of the villa I might have blocked maybe six. They’re the nasty trolls.’
‘The pros are that I’ve come out and had experiences I could only have the dreamt of. The cons, I would say, is lack of privacy.
‘But then again, I’ve put myself into the public eye – no one has made me go on Love Island so I kind of just have to bite the bullet.’
Maura and Chris both appeared on 2019’s Love Island but left the programme as friends.
The Irish beauty was partnered with dancer Curtis Pritchard who she dated for several months after the show.
