This week, she was dwarfed by a huge tiered cake at fashion brand Oh Polly's tenth anniversary party in West London.
It came weeks after she kissed married McFly singer Danny Jones, 39.
A source said: 'She's keen to move on and this Fiji trip will help.'
We recently revealed how Maura filmed a tennis advert for a sportswear brand — but admitted she cannot play the sport at all.
The I'm A Celebrity star, 34, demonstrated her serve in a video to promote luxury sports clothes firm Alo Yoga.
And after announcing her big partnership, she uploaded a clip to TikTok and told her 1.4million followers: 'Can't even play'.
One fan tried to pay her a compliment by saying: 'Adding tennis player to her CV.'
But Maura straightforwardly replied: 'I'm s**t'.
Maura revealed she was also joined by a snake as she filmed the ad in Los Angeles.
Showing off the reptile, she said: 'There's a f*ing snake! Oh my God I am back in the jungle.

Hollyoaks 'quietly recast character' as they return after 3 years
A Hollyoaks star looks set to return to the Channel 4 soap. Hollyoaks appears to have recast a fan favourite character, who is due to return to the beloved Channel 4 soap. After three years, character Faith Hudson is set to return, if social media clues are anything to go by. Faith, who is the daughter of Liberty Savage (Jessamy Stoddart), first appeared on screen in 2020. She was later played by two twins named Elsie and Lyla, and was last seen in 2022. However, it's now been reported that producers have chosen child star Lottie Tatton to take over the role. Faith has been absent from Hollyoaks in recent years, and was staying with her uncle Denis (Joe Tracini) in New Zealand. However, Denis has been killed off screen, so Faith will be returning to reunite with her mum. Lottie's new role has been revealed on the Facebook page for The Drama Mob, an acting school run by fellow soap star Tina O'Brien, who is best known as Sarah Platt in Coronation Street. The page announced: 'A huge well done to our fabulous Lottie who has just made her debut on Hollyoaks playing Faith Hudson! 'Lottie has been part of the Drama Mob family since she was born - her mum is one of our amazing teachers Jenna! 'We're so proud of her and know she's going to absolutely smash it! Well done Lottie!' Fans rushed to share their support, with one writing: 'Love this. Well done Lottie, you little star.' Another said: 'Well done wee madam, you done superb.' A Hollyoaks fan page on Instagram also shared: 'Lottie Tatton has joined the cast playing Faith Hudson, the daughter of Liberty Savage and Brody Hudson. The last time we saw Faith she was just 2 years old, now at 5 years old what will Faith get up too?' 'My face lit up when i seen her im excited to see how she blossoms liberties character is just amazing,' one follower replied. Another said: 'I've been wondering where she's been and noticed the recent at nursery comment which I guess was leading up to her debut.' This comes as a dramatic storyline involving Faith's mum Liberty has been exposed. According to Metro, her affair with Jez Blake (Jeremy Sheffield) is due to cause a stir, having already caused some controversial moments. Earlier this year, Liberty dressed up as her dead mum (Jez's ex) to try and get him to fall for her, with her plan working, though Jez continued planning his wedding to John Paul McQueen (James Sutton). As if there weren't enough secrets, lies and deception so far, the Hollyoaks' summer trailer revealed Jez having been a serial killer for years and finally being caught - but will he get what he deserves?

Love Island fans work out real reason Harry is ‘picking fight' with Helena as pair clash at Grafties
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) LOVE Island fans have predicted that Harry is causing beef with Helena - for his own benefit. According to viewers, footballer Harry picked a fight with Helena on purpose and used the information received during The Grafties as a way out. Sign up for the Entertainment newsletter Sign up 4 The footballer was seen getting the hump after hearing news about Helena Credit: Eroteme 4 Viewers have claimed that Harry's wild moves are a plot to win his ex back Credit: Eroteme Fans watched last night as an angry Harry accused Helena of playing games and not being 'all about him' when she returned to the villa after the Sleepover. A bemused Helena argued it was 'weeks ago' and was not the same as him flirting outrageously with a number of girls, most recently Angel. Harry was seen becoming riled by Helena's previous behaviour - although they weren't even together at the time. Viewers have now clocked Harry's escape plan - so he can go back to ex Shakira - who he was previously coupled up. Harry barked during their heated chat at The Grafties: "I thought you were all for me when you came back?" Toni noted: "He's just trying to pick a fight with her." Conor agreed: "That's crazy behaviour." The official Love Island Instagram account asked fans: "Is Harry picking fights or bringing up fair points?" Users commented: "Picking fights as an excuse to crawl back to Shakira and blame Helena." A second predicted: "When you wish to end a relationship, you find every little thing about the other person irritating, and that is what Harry is trying to do." Watch moment Harry admits he still has feelings for Shakira after star threatened to quit villa A third agreed: "Harry has some cheek after all he has said and done - that was pure excuse to slip off from Helena on to Shakira." "Welcome to Harry's Gas Lighting class, please take your seats," mocked another. "He's trying to start something just to start something," mused a fan. "Harry's trying to start something with Helena, so that he can leave her for Shakira and put the blame on to Helena," assumed another. "Harry's 100% using this as an excuse to try to get back with Shakira," wrote another user. "Harry is picking a fight so Helena can end it without him looking bad... He thinks he can go back to Shakira even though she didn't tell him she doesn't want him," penned another sofa detective. The lingering love triangle has erupted since Shakira dumped Conor and Harry was her shoulder to cry on. Semi pro footballer Harry ditched Shakira after Helena pursued him for weeks. The couple have just made their relationship 'exclusive' but Harry has been unable to shake his previous connection with Shakira after she confessed she wasn't over him. It led to a huge showdown between the footballer and his girl, Helena. Helena and Harry are now 'done' after an explosive row over Shakira - not yet seen on screen. Earlier in the week, former flames Harry and Shakira were seen having an intense chat about her emotions. Indecisive Harry shocked viewers as he asked Shakira if they could 'hang out' when they leave the villa. 4 Fans are accusing Harry of picking a fight with Helena so he can move back to Shakira Credit: Eroteme
