In a development that has sent reality TV fans into a frenzy, followers of I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here! believe former contestant Maura Higgins has subtly confirmed her rumored romance with TV personality Pete Wicks. Social media detectives have been hard at work, dissecting every Instagram post and comment from the pair, with their recent interactions sparking a wave of speculation.
The rumors started swirling when Maura, known for her fiery personality on Love Island, shared a cryptic Instagram story over the weekend. The post featured a picturesque view of a secluded beach with the caption, “Sometimes, you just need to get away with someone special.” Fans quickly noted that Pete Wicks had shared a strikingly similar post on his account just hours earlier, showcasing the same location.
Adding fuel to the fire, eagle-eyed followers spotted flirty exchanges between the two on Instagram. Pete, who gained fame on The Only Way Is Essex, left a cheeky comment under one of Maura’s recent posts, which she replied to with a winking emoji. This seemingly harmless banter has left fans convinced there’s more to their connection than just friendship.
“They’re totally together! The posts match up perfectly,” one fan commented on a popular gossip page. “It’s only a matter of time before they make it official.” Another added, “Maura deserves someone who can keep up with her energy, and Pete seems like the perfect match.”
While neither Maura nor Pete has officially addressed the rumors, their growing closeness hasn’t gone unnoticed. The duo was recently spotted together at a star-studded event, fueling further speculation about their budding romance. Fans couldn’t help but notice their undeniable chemistry as they posed for pictures and mingled throughout the evening.
Interestingly, both Maura and Pete have hinted at looking for love in recent interviews. Pete revealed in a candid chat last month that he’s ready to “settle down” and find someone who shares his adventurous spirit. Meanwhile, Maura has been open about wanting to meet someone “who makes her laugh and loves life as much as she does.” Could this be a match made in reality TV heaven?
For now, fans will have to keep their eyes peeled for more clues from the pair. With their playful interactions and matching social media updates, it’s easy to see why many are rooting for them to be the next big reality TV couple. Until an official confirmation arrives, the speculation continues to swirl, keeping fans on the edge of their seats.
