Maura Higgins shares first glimpse inside incredible new £3,200,000 home
The Love Island star, 34, revealed to her Instagram followers in October that she was swapping her one-bedroom property for a luxury new mansion.
On Sunday, the reality TV personality posted some pictures from inside the home after moving in over the weekend.
Posting a snap inside the sleek grey kitchen with views through large French doors into a manicured garden, she wrote: 'After the busiest few months…. she's finally in.'
On the kitchen counter, she showed a large bouquet of flowers, a bottle of sparkling wine, and a candle to celebrate the occasion.
A second picture on her Instagram Stories showed celebrity hairdresser friend Carl Bembridge sitting on a kitchen surface, adding: 'No chairs yet but he always finds something to sit on.'
Last year, Maura shared a similar snap of the modern-style kitchen announcing that she had bought a new home, writing alongside the picture: 'Bought my dream home.'
The I'm A Celebrity star has been relatively out of the spotlight following her kiss with Danny Jones at the Brit Awards.
Maura has remained silent on the kissing scandal, but the McFly singer issued a public apology to his wife, model Georgia Horsley.
In an Instagram Story, he wrote: 'Sorry it's taken me a while to post this but I've taken some time out to be with those closest to me.
'I want to deeply apologise to my wife and family for putting them in this situation. I love them so much and we'll continue to deal with this privately.
'I love you guys, thank you for your patience, understanding, and support. See you all soon, Danny.' More Trending
Danny skipped the Baftas in May with a source telling Metro it was in a bid to avoid Maura following the fallout of the scandal.
'Danny wasn't ready to bump into Maura after everything that happened. He's ready to move on from the situation entirely and put it in the past,' they said.
'Although a lot of his I'm A Celebrity co-stars were there last night and it would have been great to see them again, he didn't feel coming face-to-face with Maura at such a big event would have been appropriate.'
Maura is next set to appear on our screens on the US spin-off of The Traitors alongside the likes of Lisa Rinna, Michael Rapaport, and Porsha Williams.

Sacha Baron Cohen shows off complete body transformation after getting Marvel abs
Sacha Baron Cohen has unveiled his ripped physique in a front cover photo shoot, which the Borat and Ali G actor said is categorically 'not AI' after getting shredded for a Marvel role Sacha Baron Cohen is flaunting his transformed physique after getting into shape for his latest Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) role. The divisive performer graces the front of Men's Fitness UK, appearing topless whilst gripping 30-pound weights in each hand. In a collaborative Instagram post shared by both Sacha and the magazine on Wednesday, July 23, they unveiled the cover alongside additional shots from the feature showing him performing pull-ups, operating cable equipment and striking poses on a gymnasium bench. Sacha posted several images from the shoot to his Instagram Stories, adding his own witty observations. "This is not AI, I really am egotistical enough to do this," wrote Sacha, who completed his divorce from Isla Fisher in June, beneath the magazine cover. On another photograph, he penned: "Some celebs use Ozempic, some use private chefs, others use personal trainers. I did all three." In subsequent Stories posts, Sacha declared he was "hard launching my mid-life crisis" and "debuting my new character: middle aged man who replaced beer with protein shakes." For his penultimate post, he stated "This whilst tagging Marvel Studios and using the hashtag shirtless Mephisto. Mephisto is the Marvel Comics character he recently portrayed in the MCU, reports the Mirror US. He wrapped up by expressing gratitude to his personal trainer Alfonso Moretti "for doing the unthinkable - putting up with me for 25 mins a day." Alfonso also shared the magazine photos to his Instagram and said that he "could not be more proud" of Sacha. "Sacha trusted my process and followed the plan exactly. Not only did he earn better health and fitness with incredible also... The COVER of Men's Fitness! ! !" the personal trainer penned. "From Borat to Buff full article coming this Friday! For now, enjoy the pictures. Tell me he doesn't look absolutely incredible!". He concluded by teasing that fans can discover how Sacha achieved his new physique in the issue releasing on Friday, July 25. Sacha recently portrayed the villainous Mephisto in the season finale of Ironheart, which aired on July 1. Mephisto is a notorious character from the Marvel Comics, making his debut in Silver Surfer #3 in December 1968. The character was brought to life by Stan Lee and John Buscema, drawing inspiration from Mephistopheles, a demon character from the Faust legend. During a recent press event, Kevin Feige, President of Marvel Studios, confirmed that Cohen would reprise his role as Mephisto in future projects, although he remained tight-lipped about their plans for the character. "He's another character that, pre-MCU, would have been hard to do. He's a devil. How do you do that character? But he's a formative character. He was a big part of Thanos' storyline in the comics. So again, now that he's here, the potential is clear," Kevin shared with GamesRadar, speaking about Mephisto.

Gisele Bundchen gives rare look at baby son with boyfriend Joaquim Valente as she celebrates 45th birthday
Gisele Bündchen gave her 22.9 million Instagram followers a rare glimpse of her baby son on Wednesday. She shares the tot, who is around five months old, with her Brazilian jiu-jitsu instructor–turned–boyfriend, Joaquim Valente. The baby boy looked adorable as he sat on his mother's lap in a sweet photo taken outside in Rio Grande do Sul, the southernmost state of her home country of Brazil. She had ventured south of the border after she was recently seen making a risky move while on a stroll near her home in Florida with her son. Gisele's son — whose name has not yet been publicly revealed — joined her as she celebrated her 45th birthday with family members surrounding her. Among them was her fraternal twin sister Patricia, who beamed while posing with Gisele as they held matching birthday cakes. The sisters' birthday is on July 20, but Gisele noted in a tribute that their late mother's birthday was on July 23, the day she shared the post. Their birthday celebrations took place in the midst of a gorgeous forest, and the supermodel shared another stunning photo in which she held her young son harnessed to her chest as she explored the wilderness while gazing at a picturesque waterfall in the distance. While Gisele's son — whose middle name is reportedly 'River' — wasn't old enough to get his mother a present, he was still able to give her a sweet card after getting a bit of help. The catwalk star included a sweet card reading 'Happy Birthday Mom!!!' in Brazilian Portuguese, but it was signed with her son's cute foot print that looked as if it could have been made with burgundy-colored paint, or perhaps a jam or berry purée. Gisele shares two older children with her ex-husband Tom Brady: her son Benjamin, 15, and her daughter Vivian, 12. She also has a 17-year-old stepson Jack, whom her ex shares with his former partner, Bridget Moynahan. Another photo from Gisele's nature explorations showed her grasping the arm of a young girl, who appeared from behind to be Vivian. They stopped to admire a smaller waterfall tucked away in the trees. Gisele revealed that her boyfriend Joaquim had joined her for the family trip. He stood next to her and held their son, whose face was again covered up with a white heart, as they posed for a large family photo at an outdoor dining table on a wooden deck. Tucked in with her photos was a gorgeous black-and-white portrait of Gisele's mother Vânia Nonnenmacher, to whom she looks nearly identical. 'Haven't been around here much, but I wanted to take a moment to say thank you for all the warm birthday wishes,' Gisele wrote in her caption. 'I'm so grateful for another trip around the sun and even more grateful to have spent it in nature, surrounded by love and my family. 'Today is also my mom's birthday. We miss her deeply, but we know she's always with us. I continue to trust and welcome life with an open heart, holding gratitude for all that is still to come,' Gisele continued. 'Sending love to everyone ❤️.' The Brazilian model's mother died at age 75 in January 2024 from cancer. Gisele has been focused on raising her family in recent years after retiring from the runway back in 2016. In May, she revealed that her life was starting to settle down again after she welcome her son in February. 'Now that my little one is sleeping through the night, I'm back in control of my routine,' she shared with Vogue France in May. 'As any new mom knows, it's incredible how much sleep — or lack of it — can change everything! But once again, I feel truly grateful: being able to be home with my kids and enjoy every moment with them is priceless.' Gisele's relationship with Joachim began professional in 2021, when she and her children began taking jiu-jitsu classes at the center he runs with his brother. Then, in October 2022, she and her husband Tom announced that they were divorcing. Gisele and Joaquim courted scandal when she were pictured traveling together to Costa Rica in November 2022, just two weeks after her rapid divorce was finalized. However, she denied ever having an affair with the 35-year-old martial arts instructor during her 13-year-old marriage to the football icon.
