Maura Higgins admitted she was “tempted” to handover her old knickers for £5,000.
The Love Island star was offered a significant investment proposition that proved tricky to turn down. The model and TV icon, 33, had been clearing out of closet when one fan offered her a huge sum of cash in exchange for her old undies.
It was clearly an unexpected direct message that landed in her inbox after she’d merely shared a snap on Instagram of a pile of clothes. Maura likes to direct her followers to her Depop account to raise funds for charity through sales online.

One cheeky fan messaged: “A pair of your knickers. Send you £5,000 for them. I’m honestly serious. Everything will stay anonymous… £5k up front.”
Sharing the cheeky message with fans, Maura took to her Instagram story to re-share the conversation. She also penned: “Tempting,” for her fans to see.

Back in 2019, Maura shot to fame on Love Island and became a household name, not only because of her good looks but because of her Irish charm. She was quickly a fan favourite after she entered the Spanish villa causing quite a stir with her “fanny flutters”.
More recently, the social media influencer has returned home from an adventure to the US. She attended the star studded music festival Coachella and pulled off some stunning looks from her time there.

The Irish bombshell had been letting her hair down after parting ways from her boyfriend Bobby Holland Hanton, 39. The pair had a whirlwind romance last summer but decided it was best to call it quits.
A source told The Sun: “It was really fun for a while. But they’re different people. “It’s over between them.” The twosome now unfollow each other on social media, so looks like it’s definitely finished for good.
