Maya Jama has broken her social media silence following reports that the star is newly engaged to basketball player Ben Simmons.
The 27-year-old appeared to confirm the joyous news earlier this week when she was spotted wearing the dazzling diamond on her finger while out on a morning coffee run.
Now, the TV presenter has returned to social media to share a snap of a beautiful bunch of white flowers on her Instagram Stories with a note that read: “Love you, miss you already.”
Following the romantic gesture, the DJ apologised for not updating her 2.4 million followers until the weekend, writing: “Back in London & straight to work. Been offline, hope you’re all good.”

It is understood that Maya said yes to sportsman Ben, 25, over the Christmas period while spending time with his family overseas in Philadelphia.
The gorgeous rock is thought to have set the NBA player back a whopping £700,000 after a jewellery expert at H&T shared their thoughts on the suspected engagement.
They told OK! Magazine: “The engagement ring appears to be a large Emerald cut Diamond of good colour possibly G or H with a fancy cut and the Diamond shoulders are trapeze cut.

“It is clearly mounted and set in either white gold or platinum. The large Emerald cut centre stone is most likely between 8 and 10 Carats in weight; it would likely have a retail valuation of £700,00 to £800,000.”
The loving couple only confirmed their relationship during a Wimbledon match last year, as the pair locked lips in the stands while watching the annual event.
Before the star got together with her possible husband-to-be, she dated Brit Award-wining rapper Stormzy for four years.
At the end of 2019, the couple called time on their on-again off-again relationship as they went their separate ways.
But she’s not the only one with a famous ex, as Ben also cut ties with supermodel Kendall Jenner back in 2020 before he got together with raven-haired beauty Maya.
Later in her Instagram Stories, Maya showed off her glam new look after having her hair and make-up done by her team, apologising for the “posey” snaps by saying: “I haven’t had my make-up done by these in ages, so I am gassed today!”
