Maya Jama and Stormzy reportedly “shared a kiss” at the MTV European Music Awards earlier this month.
The former couple split in August 2019 after four years together, amid claims the rapper had been unfaithful.
The new Love Island host has recently been spotted hanging out with her ex, following her rumoured split from her fiancé Ben Simmons.
It has since been claimed that Maya and Stormzy shared a kiss in the top tier VIP area at the MTV event in Düsseldorf – where no cameras were allowed.
According to The UK Sun, the pair travelled back to the UK together after missing the separate flights they had booked.
A source told the publication: “Maya and Stormzy hooked up at one of the exclusive areas at the bash.”
“There were three levels of VIP area and they were in the top tier one. They were seen kissing and seemed totally into each other.”
“There was a strict no-camera policy which is why they seemed happy to be so open with their relationship,” the source continued.
A second told the outlet that the pair travelled back to the UK together, adding that Maya had changed her hotel in London to be near Stormzy and that they “seemed very much in love when the spotlight was off them”.
While fans are convinced the former couple have rekindled their romance, a rep for Maya recently shut down these rumours, telling MailOnline that she “remains great friends” with her ex.
The news comes after they both attended the GQ Men of the Year Awards in London last week, and reportedly left the event within just minutes of each other.
According to The UK Sun, Stormzy was heard telling his friends that he and Maya were back together and that the pair spent “ages” in deep conversation at the afterparty.
A source told the outlet: “Stormzy and Maya are together again. They’re taking it slow but are very much back in each other’s lives after a long time when they didn’t speak or see each other.”
Stormzy opened up about his split from Maya in a new 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?”
Earlier this month, the former couple were filmed hugging at Kendrick Lamar’s concert at London’s O2 Arena, and were later seen in the VIP area together.
Maya, who was recently announced as the new host of Love Island, arrived at the concert with friends, while Stormzy attended with his management team.
An onlooker told MailOnline: “Stormzy approached the VIP area in good spirits, looking cool with his hoodie over his head. As soon as he saw Maya he approached her and they embraced, proving there is no bad blood between them.”
“After sharing a hug, Stormzy rejoined his party before returning to the VIP area later in the gig where Maya was standing. They were seen laughing, joking and dancing together. It was like old times.”
Months after his split from Maya, 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…”
Just last month, the grime rapper opened up about their painful split on the new series of 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.”
After the interview aired, fans flocked to Twitter as they called for the pair to get back together.
all I want is Maya and stormzy back together tbh
