‘Thank you for all the love and support you’ve given us, it’s truly been appreciated’.
Happy: Maura looked like she was having a great time with Chris and couldn’t stop laughing in his company
Just two weeks before the announcement, Maura spoke to MailOnline about the prospect of marriage and how happy they were together.
‘Like every couple we have our bickers, he does silly things like leaving the fridge door open.
‘We have spoken about getting married – we’ve often spoken about where would we like to get married and would I like Ireland or England, stuff like that…

Hanging out: Chris looked relaxed and happy as he chatted to Maura while exploring the park
‘I do feel like I’d probably want an Irish wedding, which is a crazy, big party. I’ve had an image in my head for years but everyone I know that’s got married always says ‘you’ll never wear what you thought.’ I’d like something very simple…
‘I don’t feel like I’m going to even cover up on my wedding day!’
Maura temporarily moved in with close pal Molly-Mae Hague, 21, and her boyfriend Tommy Fury, 22, who both supported her following her split from Chris.
