Maya reportedly got engaged to the 6ft11 basketball player last December, but the pair had kept the news quiet, only telling close family and friends.

The couple were first romantically linked in June after they were seen together on a night out at Sexy Fish restaurant in London.

At the time, a source told The Mirror: “They are really into each other and the fact she flew to Philadelphia to be with him says a lot. They had a fun two weeks together.

“It’s nice to see her so happy.”

The relationship followed after Maya’s highly publicised romance with Stormzy, with the pair splitting in August 2019.

Shortly after calling it quits, the rapper addressed their split in his song Lessons.

In the track, he rapped: “My nephew’s still asking for his Aunty Maya. Guess this is the karma for what I done to Maya. I just stood and let it burn, I couldn’t down the fire.”

He went on to make it clear that he hadn’t cheated on Maya, but said he’d been “very inconsiderate”.

The musician said in January of 2020: “It didn’t need to be cheating for it still to be a disrespect. But I thought now is a good time to say I didn’t cheat on my ex.

“I always say, my ex girl, she’s amazing, she’s a phenomenal woman. If there was a box of what a good woman is, she ticks every one, she is amazing.”

He added: “I’m still definitely still an a***hole, 100%, that’s a fact. I’m an a***hole.”
