Maura Higgins has been enjoying a romantic winter holiday with her new boyfriend.
The Love Island star has jetted to Lapland with stuntman Bobby Holland, marking their first holiday together. She got cosy with her new beau in front of a fire pit as they kept warm from the snow. The 33-year-old has been keeping her fans updated with her trip to Finland and shared snaps from the winter break.
Maura enjoyed drinking red wine with Bobby, who works as Hollywood actor Chris Hemsworth's stuntman. The reality TV star kept Bobby's face out of the snap, but it was enough to confirm her romance with her followers. Bobby's tattooed hand could be seen clinking wine glasses with Maura.

He then shared an insight into the new couple's stunning getaway to the Arctic Snow Hotel and Glass Iglus. The stuntman posted photos from inside their glass iglu, looking out to the snowy night sky.
Bobby appears to have already got the approval of Maura's mum, as she gushed: "Awh have a lovely time you look amazing." Maura confirmed her new romance last month as she admitted she is in a "very happy relationship". The Irish star appeared on The Late Late Show where she addressed romance rumours to host Patrick Kielty.

"I am no more single. Very happy relationship," she said, grinning widely. Patrick then asked if her new beau was in the audience, to which she replied: "He is. He's there somewhere." As the crowd cheered, Patrick teased Maura by calling her man a "good looking devil." Maura played along, responding: "Oh he is."
Bobby has starred in blockbuster films like Avengers, Batman, James Bond and Mission Impossible. He's also been "David Beckham's football double." Rumours of their romance began in August 2023 when they both shared photos of a romantic dinner in Fiji on Instagram.

The pair were soon seen kissing and cuddling on a spontaneous trip to Ibiza.
