Love Island stars Molly-Mae Hague and Maura Higgins are currently catching some summer sun on a holiday in Crete with a number of other pals, including hairdresser to the stars – Jay Birmingham and Molly-Mae’s sister.
But the group’s luxury getaway nearly ended in disaster when the yacht they were travelling on came head-on with some very choppy waters.
The group demanded the crew take them back to the shore as they feared they were going to “die”.
Documenting the experience on her Instagram Story, Maura, 29, told fans: “We nearly died”.
She then panned the camera round to a flustered Molly-Mae, 21, who reiterated Maura’s sentiment and said: “I don’t know how we’re here right now.”

Molly-Mae then proceeded to say in the background that some of the boat party were “crying” and “being sick”.
Maura then gave fans a glimpse of their near-disastrous boat trip by sharing a video, which she took onboard.
In the clip, the worried group of pals told the deck crew to take them back to the shore and that they wanted to “get off”.
Maura then shared a snap of pal Jay Birmingham with his head on the table onboard the yacht, looking under-the-weather.

Molly-Mae took to her own Instagram stories to share her version of events.
She shared the same photo of Jay, which she captioned: “The reality of our boat day.
“I will never take a day of my life for granted again.
“We genuinely thought we were going to die.”
She added: “I’m not even being dramatic.”
Molly-Mae then shared a clip of her sister and Jay saying they wanted to go back to shore.
The Instagram influencer wrote alongside it: “I’ve never seen my sister speak like this.

“She’s only speaking like this because we asked over 10 times for them to turn the boat around and she wouldn’t.”
Molly-Mae followed up the frantic video with a photo of herself sipping on a cold beverage.
She captioned it: “Celebratory milkshake for making it off the capsizing boat.”
Molly-Mae advised she’d be documenting her boat experience in full on Instagram at a later date after being inundated with questions from fans about the excursion, but advised that at this stage, she was just happy that she and her pals were back “on solid ground”.
