Privacy NoticeMaya Jama was joined in the Love Island Aftersun studio by her mum just days after the television presenter confirmed her split from Stormzy. The 29-year-old host confirmed she was longer in a relationship with the rapper, 30, on Wednesday (July 17) in a social media message to fans. The joint statement read: “We’ve been laughing whilst drafting this because we never, ever, in a million years thought we’d be the couple announcing a breakup, but for the sake of clarity and, more importantly, to allow us the space and grace that’s needed for us both to be able to navigate this next bit of our lives with peace, we thought it might be best to.”
