Irish beauty Maura sported wavy hair and wore a cropped black top with jogging bottoms, while Pete complemented her in a jazzy black and white jacket and beanie.

The brooding podcast host, whose luxury Porsche was parked nearby, sometimes beamed and looked relaxed around Maura.

The pair appear to be an official item after Pete’s best friend Sam Thompson cheekily “welcomed Maura to the family” when she appeared on I’m A Celebrity spin-off, Unpacked.

Since Maura returned to the UK, they have been spending a lot of time together, although it remains to be seen where they will be on December 25.

Maura addressed the romance rumors on This Morning, telling Alison Hammond: “Forget about the cameras and I like to keep things private but let’s be honest, I said it. I can’t remember saying it but I said the words ‘I miss you’.

“I miss him, like I’ve missed all my friends and family. He’s been very supportive, honestly. I didn’t know if he was still on Strictly and I’m so proud of him, he’s proud of me, and I can’t wait to I’ll see him when I get back.”

She was the sixth celebrity to be kicked out of the camp earlier this month and has been making up for lost time with a series of carb-heavy meals after a miserable diet of rice, beans and jungle delicacies.

She told fans on social media: “I ate pasta every night from the jungle.

“No regrets!”

Maura drank red wine after getting the boot in a double knockout with boxer Barry McGuigan, 63.

When their time at camp was over, they appeared on Unwrapped to talk about their jungle antics.

Ireland’s Barry was quick to joke about Maura’s behavior outside the Australian compound, saying: “It’s fascinating to be on this side, we’re just stuffing our faces.

“I slept well, I’m not sure you did, Maura.

– She drank long into the night.

Maura, wearing a strapless corset dress with a leaf print and lace-up details, then quipped: “Barry don’t tell everyone!”

Host Joel Dommett asked Maura how she celebrated and she said: “I only slept an hour and a half.

“I went crazy with my food, I had a bottle of wine last night, yeah I definitely overdid it.”

Before her time at the camp, she lived at a lot of parties and events.

She even admitted that she “wasn’t well” and was “shaking” upon arriving Down Under.

Maura reunited with Pete just a day after returning to the UK.

During her time in the jungle, she talked about romantic speculations between the two.

She insisted she was single – despite sharing a passionate companionship with Pete.

“No, I’m single. People can date and not be in a relationship and things go slow.

“What’s the point of getting them involved too soon, when you just don’t know where it’s going to go, you know?”

Maura added: “Well, they were already papering us, tongues down our throats, and we had no idea!

“The funniest thing is that I had a vape in one hand and a cigarette in the other, living my best life.”
