Maya Jama and Stormzy have finally confirmed they’re back together, four years after they split.
In photos obtained by MailOnline, the couple were papped holding hands on Hydra Island in Greece, where they’re currently on holiday.
Over the weekend, the Love Island host sparked speculation she was on vacation with the popular rapper, after dropping hints on social media.
And now, it looks like their romance is definitely back on.
According to The UK Sun, Stormzy’s mum Abigail Owuo played a huge role in the pair giving their relationship another chance.
Over the weekend, a source told the publication: “Stormzy is really open about wanting to settle down and have kids one day and he knows Maya is ‘The One’.
“Stormzy is really close to his mum Abigail who has always been Maya’s biggest fan. Abigail wants the best for her son and motivated him to make amends with Maya.”
The news comes after Maya, 29, and Stormzy, 30, dropped hints they were on holiday together last week.
On Thursday night, the Vossi Bop rapper posted a video from a luxury villa overlooking the sea.
Fans then pointed out that Maya seemed to be in the same location, after she posted a selfie with the same thatched roof in the background.
Fans also claimed to see Maya in the reflection of Stormzy’s glasses at the start of the video.

In the comment section, one fan wrote: “I’m that invested in this! I’ve just looked at Mayas stories! Definitely at the same place!! omg it’s actually happening.”
Another commented: “You can see Maya via the sunglaes reflection. We are here for it dont waste no time no engagment straight 2 the weddding no messing about.”
A third excited fan wrote: “WE’VE DONE IT LADS!!! THEY’RE BACK TOGETHER!!!!!”
The former couple sparked rumours they had rekindled their romance earlier this year, after they were seen hanging out on numerous occasions.
Maya also spoke about her relationship with Stormzy in an interview with The Times earlier this year.
The popular presenter said: “We were so young when we met, just beginning our careers. I was starting at MTV. He’d not even released a single at that point. We were just little babies.”
“I don’t think either of us knew it was going to be such a big thing. We were just: we’re young and in love and we’re going to go for it and work really hard. We’re just together. We never really did red carpets. We didn’t do any of that stuff.”
Stormzy also opened up about his split from Maya in a previous interview with British GQ, saying: “I think my break-up with Maya was still really heavy on my heart.”
“I’d never experienced a breakup and the feelings that come with a breakup. And I never wanted to ever be in a position again where I felt what I was feeling.
“Because it showed me that I was a boy. And I do not want to go any further as a boy. I’ve seen how that manifests in other people. And I don’t want to be like that.”
“So what is the necessary work I have to do to make sure I’m not in this position again? That means growth, accountability, changing my character, changing my routines, my habits, my tradition, my values, my morals.”
“Because how I feel right now and how I’ve made someone else feel and how I’ve devastated a world that I was living in – I just never want to be in this position again. So what do I need to do?”
Months after his split from Maya in 2019, Stormzy admitted he “done the dirt” on the presenter in an emotional track called ‘Lessons’ on his album Heavy Is The Head.
The lyrics read: “I done the dirt and then I figured that you’ll dig it out / But that’s a coward move, I guess you got me figured out / I know you’ll never listen now.”
In the second verse, Stormzy rapped: “Fast forward now, my nephew’s still asking for his Auntie Maya / Guess this is the karma for what I done to Maya.”
“Greatest love I ever knew, I poured it down the drain / Maybe it’s the only way we both call it a day / You gave me the world and then I gave you disrespect / Hand on my heart, this is my biggest of regrets / Thought I’d say it here than rather fling it in a text / Until you’re ready to forgive I’m always wishing you the best but…”
Late last year, fans also called for Maya and Stormzy to get back together after the grime rapper opened up about their painful split on Louis Theroux Meets…
He said: “My break-up, that was probably the biggest catalyst for growth as a man.”
“It was like, OK, you made a mistake and you lose someone you loved, someone you cared for, someone who is special to you. That’s probably the biggest loss a man can have, isn’t it? Away from someone passing away, that’s the biggest loss you can have.”
“The whole f***ing palaver that surrounded that situation, do you know what I mean? There were other things in terms of mistakes I’d made. I didn’t do what a man should do to fully appreciate love, and care for his woman.”
Stormzy told Louis: “Long story short, I learned that if I don’t want to feel like that again, and if I believe that God will bless me again with an amazing woman and a family and marriage and all of that kind of thing… I have to do all the necessary work to never be in that situation again.”
