From being ‘loud’ in bed to her drunken lesbian fling, the brunette beauty, who is worth an impressive £3.2 million, is a mega sex symbol who often leaves men utterly intimidated. 

The star, who has 4.1 million Instagram followers and previously dated The Only Way Is Essex icon Pete Wicks, 36, has candidly claimed to ‘love sex’ and isn’t afraid to get frisky even when her mother is home. 

Famed for her iconic “fanny flutters” catchphrase, Maura, who has travelled the world as a Monster energy drinks girl, is loved by millions thanks to her sass and sexy innuendos.

And just days after Maura appeared to share a brief drunken kiss with married I’m A Celebrity campmate Danny Jones, 38, at a Brit Awards after-party, here, Fabulous takes a look inside what really goes on behind closed doors for this straight-talking star. 

‘Gory’ details and bonking whilst her mother is home 

While on I’m A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here!, Maura got candid on her openness when it comes to talking to her mother about what goes on in the sheets.

She explained: “I talk to my mum about… I mean if I slept with a guy, my mum will ask me, ‘Well, what was he like in the bed?’ and she will get every gory detail.” 

Not only this, but the star, who is said to have battled a crippling company debt of £678,000 before her jungle stint, also discussed being open about sex. 

According to Maura, who has her own beauty line with Inglot, her frank and often honest discussions about sex are what she has always considered “normal”.

She told Her: “Growing up in my house, I was always able to speak about things like that.

“I always talked to my mammy about sex, and I still would now. That’s normal to me.

“You always hear men talking about sex. Why can’t I do the same? 

“Even in the villa, so many of the other contestants were so shocked when I’d come out with things, but I was just like, why? It’s normal. 

“Men and women are equals so it shouldn’t be shocking.”

As well as this, Maura has also said: “I’d never be ashamed to talk about sex, I was always open about it.

“I could tell my mam about someone I slept with after a night out, I didn’t have to filter anything.”

But that’s not all, as when asked whether she had slept with someone while her mum was home, she replied: “Yes, yes I have.”

Not only this, but she also got candid on her honesty with Daily Star and admitted: “I am upfront about what I want and people respond to it very well.

“They appreciate the fact that I’m not afraid to talk about whatever I want.

“I don’t think anyone should be afraid to do that. We should be able to talk about anything and not be judged for it.

“I have had a lot of young women come up to me and say I have inspired them. That puts a tear in my eye.” 

‘Loud’ in bed and ‘10 out of 10’ bedroom antics with Curtis

During her Love Island stint, Maura was seen trying to seduce pro dancer Curtis Pritchard, 29, under the covers.

After he told her: “Tonight’s not the night”, she fumed to the other islanders the next day: “A coffee? An orgasm would be grand.”

Shortly after, speaking to Metro, Maura revealed the real reason why the pair didn’t get intimate – and it’s to do with her volume in the bedroom.

Maura confessed: “I think it was more about keeping people awake! Curtis knows how loud I am.”

Despite this, just days after quitting the villa, Maura wasn’t afraid to hold back when it came to sharing the details of her first bonk with Curtis.

At the time, Maura confirmed that the loved-up pair had sex when they travelled to her home in Ireland.

She told The Sun on Sunday: “I’d give him a ten out of ten.”

Not only this, but Maura also added: “We’ve had a good time. Was he worth the wait? Definitely, 100 per cent.

“I did try a few times in the villa, in the bedroom and on the outside bed.

“I tried but I didn’t succeed. Curtis said that it was for me and him alone, and he didn’t want to do anything in there. And that’s absolutely fine.

“Actually I’m glad now that we waited, because it made it even more special.”

I’m a girl who knows what she wants and goes for it

Not only did Maura not succeed in doing the deed whilst filming for the ITV show, but she also stirred up a storm in her first episode when she set her sights on Tommy Fury, famously giggling that he gave her “fanny flutters”.

She raised eyebrows when she tried to kiss the boxer, who was then coupled with Molly-Mae Hague, and asked him: “Does she turn you on like I do?”

The episode sparked 709 viewer complaints to Ofcom – the highest over a single incident for the whole series – with fans accusing Maura of “predatory behaviour.”

But she hit back: “I’m a girl who knows what she wants and goes for it.

“Tommy and I had chemistry on our date but a lot of what I said was banter and I think Tommy would agree.

“Watching it back I could have approached it differently, but I just went for it.”

‘Lots’ of sex with Chris Taylor

Not only was she candid on her bonk with Curtis, but just months later, she also revealed more on what happened in the sheet with her and BFF Chris Taylor.

Eight months after Maura’s split from Curtis Pritchard, it dawned on her that she and Chris had something much deeper than friendship.

And during their joint interview with Fabulous after falling head over heels for each other, when asked, ‘Is this the best sex you’ve ever had?, Chris confirmed: “Yeah. I was pleasantly surprised! How much do you want me to say?”

Following this, Maura then confirmed: “Yeah. I do love sex.”

Moments later, Chris chimed in: “We have great sex, and lots of it.” 

Drunken lesbian fling

Despite Maura having ‘lots’ of ‘great’ sex with Chris, 34, Maura previously revealed that she spent a “drunken night” with a woman when she was younger.

But she claimed she is “100% into guys”[/caption]

The reality TV star spoke about the steamy fling on ITV2‘s Shopping with Keith Lemon.

During the programme, Maura went toiletry shopping with the comedian, who grilled her about her love life.

Whilst he asked, “Have you been with a lady?”, Maura confirmed: “I actually have.”

The Irish beauty then explained: “It was years and years ago and it was just a drunken night thing.”

But despite this, she admitted: “I am more… man.”

Keith then questioned if she found it different kissing a woman instead of a man, to which Maura confirmed: “It was but I was very drunk, you know.”

However, Maura said she doesn’t consider herself bisexual, as she clarified: “I’m 100% into guys, it was just a drunken crazy night. 

“A bit of fun. It was a work friend.” 

Top orgasm advice

Also on ITV2’s Shopping with Keith Lemon, Maura got candid on her belief that women need to stop relying on men being “good” in bed and instead should learn how to give themselves an orgasm.

She stressed: “Most girls I know have never had an orgasm.

“But do you know what it is? I don’t think people understand – you actually have to teach yourself how to orgasm, it’s not about how good the man is or whatever, it’s about you as a woman.

Be open if you are not happy with how it is going, but don’t fake a f*****g orgasm

“Us women don’t understand how lucky we are, the women that can, do you know what I mean?”

As well as this, as reported by the Irish Independent, Maura claimed: “Sex is a natural thing.

“Be open if you are not happy with how it is going, but don’t fake a f*****g orgasm. 

“He is not going to fake it for you. No guy is going to fake it, are they? 

“I don’t know why some girls do that. Like, some of my friends would, and I am like, ‘Why? Why would you do that?'”

‘Ruining’ her life with Jerry the sex toy

And on the top of orgasms and self-pleasure, whilst the pubs, clubs and restaurants shut down across the UK during the Coronavirus lockdown, it appeared that Maura didn’t seem to mind the self-isolation too much.

At the time, the Dancing on Ice star was seen waving around a sex toy on Instagram.

During a social media clip, Maura held a large pink sex toy and joking around, told the person filming: “His name is Jerry.”

The brunette then turned the toy on, before waving it around manically at two men who were sitting on the sofa.

Joking about the cheeky video, the bombshell quipped: “I am about to ruin my own life with these videos.

“But…this is a bit of entertainment for you all.”

IT’S that time of year when you can finally dry your laundry outside and save a few quid on heating costs.

But if hanging your clothes out to dry on the washing line takes too much time – this hack could be for you.

The hack means you don’t have to mess around with clothing pegs either[/caption]

Cleaning whizz Brittany Macdonald took to social media to share her clever hack, and it will save you both time and money.

She told Instagram users: “Does anyone else hang their washing out like this, on the hangers?”

Brittany then showed her freshly washed clothes hanging from the washing line in her garden, but rather than hanging them directly on the line she used clothes hangers.

It’s a pretty clever when you think about it – not only are the clothes ready to go straight into your wardrobe once they’re dry, but you can just scoop them all up in one go.

“Been doing this hack for years,” Brittany said.

“Plus you can hang them all in the lounge while watching TV instead of standing in the sun,” she added.

Of course, the hack might not be the best way to dry certain items of clothing.

For example, heavy jumpers might go out of shape if left to dry on a hanger, but the trick is perfect for lighter garments.

Brittany’s handy hack quickly went viral on social media and currently has over 2.4 million views.

One person commented: “I’m going to steal this idea and tell my family I came up with it.”

And a second said: “Where the hell was this information 10 years ago?”

“Not gonna lie, that’s the best hack I’ve seen in ages,” a third wrote.

And a fourth chimed in: “Genuinely, this is genius.”

“Why have I never thought of this? Game changer,” another wrote.

Meanwhile, someone else said they’ve been using the trick for years: “I do this with button shirts and if it starts to rain you can get those clothes off really quickly.”

HOW TO DRY CLOTHES OUTSIDE WITH NO SUN

You can still dry your clothes outside when the sun isn’t shining, Netweather broadcaster Jo Farrow previously told Fabulous.

In fact, the weather expert said the most important factor is wind speed and not air temperature when drying washing.

She explained: “I think as a nation we’ve slipped into being over-reliant on tumble dryers and it’s not kind to our pockets.

“During the winter months, it’s very easy to get out of the habit of hanging your washing out on the line.”

According to the pro, many people believe it’s too wet or too windy for a large part of the year in the UK to hang clothes outside, but actually, even when temperatures are as low as five degrees, you can dry laundry.

WATCH THE FORECAST

The most favourable weather conditions for drying laundry are warm temperatures with no rain, no dampness and a gentle breeze.

However, even on a day that starts off wet or when showers are forecast,  there are usually still brief opportunities to dry laundry outside as our UK weather is so changeable.

The frustration of nearly bone-dry washing getting soaked by a downpour is real, so the pro said it’s crucial to understand the weather forecast on these days.

She added: “Low cloud can give drizzle or patchy rain, and on a grey day when this kind of weather sets in.

“Fog is essentially a cloud on the ground, but it will soon clear if the breeze picks up or the sun is strong enough.

“It can be worth hanging out laundry in early fog or grey low cloud, but it is a gamble. Study the weather forecast on these days.”

ADAPT YOUR LOADS

If rain is on the way, opt for quick-drying fabrics to dry outside.

Synthetic fabrics such as polyester or nylon will dry quickly because these fabrics give up moisture and dry faster than natural fibres.

Cotton can take longer to dry, so save washing denim or towels for days when the forecast is less changeable.
