Love Island host Maya is known for her sexy looks, and her latest one in the Big Apple didn’t disappoint.
Taking to her latest Instagram Stories, the stunning star showed off her tight leather dress in a mirror selfie video.
The racy outfit clung to her tiny figure, and she completed the daring look with knee high boots.
In the next clip, Maya told fans that she felt she looked “very Matrix”.
Yesterday, Maya was on Good Morning America for her first ever television interview stateside.
Once again, she pulled out all the stops in a leather mini-skirt and top co-ord, paired with high heels.

It came after fans noticed the host had been in the ITV2 villa much less this series, so the GMA hosts quizzed her on it.
Explaining her absence, she said: “It’s not up to me, it’s up to the producers that you need to speak to!
“I think this series has just had so much drama that they didn’t need me to intervene, it’s been so entertaining, so wild – as usual.”

It comes after Maya responded to fans asking where she had been, as one joked she was on a “zero hour contract”.
She said on Instagram: “Jokes aside it’s not up to me how often I enter the villa.
Although she couldn’t give too much away ahead, she said: “This is the first time I’ve ever been a contestant and not a host. And I can’t say much, because it’s Traitors – you’re not allowed to say anything.
“But I’m excited! We’ll see how I act. It’s the biggest, one of the biggest shows in the UK, and in America also.
“It’s so much fun, whether you’re a traitor or a faithful, what an experience to get to do that. So, yeah, fingers crossed it goes well.”

Her hairstylist divulged: “We were in Ibiza and the bar was closing and we were walking back to the hotel, but we took our glasses and then the Spanish lady, she was chasing us down the road.”
Maya added: “So we came and gave them back! Otherwise we would get arrested!”
The hairdresser expressed: “We’d get arrested in Ibiza and that’s not what we want.”
Maya told the camera: “They weren’t even proper glass cups, they were plastic.”

When Jasmine saw Kavan, who she was in a couple with, walk back into the main villa with the stunning Irish influencer – she was left taken aback and quite frankly, fuming.
After she processed the information, Jasmine asked Kavan if he had slept in bed with girls during Casa.
She also asked him if he’d kissed any girls outside of challenges.
His brother Aidan was quick to butt in, saying how he thinks this is a conversation for them to have in private.
“I’m allowed to speak to him. That’s who I was in a couple with,” Jasmine snapped at Aidan.
“Yeah, Aidan, let them two speak,” Maya then added in a stern voice.
Reacting to Maya’s hilarious snap back at Aidan, one person penned: “The fact even Maya’s sick of Aidan acting like the spokesperson.”
“Maya Jama is so real telling Aidan to let Jasmine and her couple speak. That’s a REAL ASS HOST,” said a second.
MAYA JAMA has sent a defiant message to Ruben Dias as she posed in a tiny bikini on holiday.

But she clearly hasn’t been moping around, and has been on holiday in Ibiza, where she flaunted her curves in a tiny bikini.
The telly favourite has shared a number of stunning snaps on her Instagram, including one of her in a Zebra print dress, and another of her in a mesh see-through black dress.
“Fun maxing, sun maxing,” she captioned the Instagram post.
It comes after she opened up about her break-up for the first time earlier this month.

As the guests discussed her relationship on the Cocktails and Takeaways podcast, Maya responded by saying: “Truth is even when I tried to keep my relationships private we get photographed anyway.
“I’m an all or nothing girl, I don’t casually date, so yes I will love loudly or not at all and if it ends it end.
“I decided a long time ago not to base personal life decisions on public opinions.”
The former couple went public with their relationship in April 2025 after their relationship began in December 2024.
But The Sun exclusively revealed that they had split in May this year.
It comes after Maya was clearly feline fine as she turned up the heat in a skimpy leopard-print mini dress on the dating show’s ITV2 spin-off Aftersun on Sunday.
The most recent episode of the programme saw the beauty return to our screens in an incredible leopard print bodycon number.
She caught up with Toni Laites, Yasmin Pettet and Joe Baggs on the sofa.
