Maura Higgins’ new stuntman beau Bobby Holland Hanton has confirmed their romance on social media.
The 39-year-old is a stunt double for Hollywood heartthrob Chris Hemsworth, whom he’s worked closely with for over 12 years.
The Longford native was first linked to Bobby in May, and the stuntman has since shared a sweet photo of them holding hands on Instagram.
Bobby shared the photo after Maura confirmed her return to Love Island, joining the US version of the series.
After dropping Love Island related hints on social media, the 32-year-old revealed she’s returning to the famous franchise – but she won’t be entering the villa as a bombshell.
Instead, Maura will be taking over the social channels for Love Island USA, which airs on Peacock in America.
In Maura’s promo shot for Love Island USA, she appears to be wearing the same dress that appears in the photo Bobby posted on Instagram.
Maura was first linked to Bobby in May, and the following month they were papped kissing on a trip to Ibiza.
The 37-year-old, who has over 262k followers on Instagram, is based in London.
The stuntman is a divorcee, and was previously married to beautician Rachel Hunter, and is a stepdad to her 10-year-old daughter.
It’s understood the pair divorced last year, and his ex approves of his romance with Maura.

Bobby has acted as a stuntman for major stars, including Daniel Craig, Henry Cavill, Ryan Reynolds, Channing Tatum and Jake Gyllenhaal.
However, he’s worked with Chris Hemsworth the longest, and now counts him as a close friend.
The pair have launched a fitness app called Centr together, and regularly share photos with each other on social media.
Maura has not gone public with a relationship since her split from Giovanni in October 2021.
Prior to her relationship with Giovanni, the reality star dated her Love Island co-stars Chris Taylor and Curtis Pritchard.
Maura was rumoured to be dating Milton Keynes Dons player Connor Wickham last May, after she jetted to Paris with a mystery man.
She was also linked to Joey Essex late last year, after they were papped locking lips after the Pride of Britain Awards last October.
