Maya Jama's current relationship status
Maya is currently back together with her ex-boyfriend, music artist Stormzy. The pair's reconciliation was rumoured back in August when the presenter was spotted in the audience at the All Points East Festival. Although the couple didn't confirm they restart of their romance until 7 October, the duo had been snapped over the summer holding hands during a trip to Greece.

"It did seem to come as a bit of a shock to you Callum when you heard the public wanted you two to get back together," she said. "I mean I can relate, I had a lot of people saying I should get back with my ex and sometimes it is just not what you're ready for."
The presenter then added: "He is over there so it worked out in the end."
Maya Jama and Stormzy
Maya and Stormzy first started dating in 2015 after meeting the year before and although their relationship seemed to be going smoothly, with fans dubbing them "couple goals" on social media, the pair abruptly called things off four years later in 2019.

Maya Jama and Drake
Maya sparked romance rumours with Canadian rapper Drake back in 2020 after he name-dropped her in his verse on Headie One's song Only You. After this, it was reported that Drake had slid into the presenter's DMs when she was still dating Stormzy, but his messages had been left unanswered.

In fact, she told Evening Standard around the time that she was very happy in her own company. "I forgot how much I loved just literally being in a house with loads of my friends, eating, talking, drinking," she said. "I was like, I miss this a little bit. I'm having fun."
Maya Jama and Ben Simmons
Maya was previously engaged to Australian-born basketball pro Ben Simmons. The couple, who are believed to have split their time between London and Los Angeles, first started dating in May 2021 before getting engaged between Christmas and New Year's.
They made things official just two months later in July when they were spotted stealing a kiss in the stands as they watched a tennis match at Wimbledon. However, in August 2022, reports began swirling that they had called time on their engagement due to conflicting schedules.

Before she found fame, Maya went through a difficult time when her then-boyfriend Rico Gordon was tragically killed. She opened up about the heartbreaking events in an interview with Cosmopolitan, revealing: "When I was 16 I went through a lot. With my boyfriend passing, it gave me a fearless approach to things. I felt like life was really short."
She continued: "Out of everything that [has] happened in my life, that was a reality check on a massive scale. At 16 you think the world is a fairytale and it took me out of that. It made me even more determined."
