Maura Higgins braves the cold as she shows off her toned abs in a crop top during a ‘freezing walk’

She has been enjoying a sunnier climate in Dubai with boyfriend Chris Taylor and their reality star pals in recent weeks.

And Maura Higgins was in for a shock on Tuesday as she stepped out in a midriff baring crop top, despite the freezing temperatures after returning to the UK.

The Love Island star, 30, flaunted her toned abs in a cropped cream polo neck jumper, which she teamed with a pair of form-fitting checked trousers.

Maura layered her look with a beige padded jacket, but left it open as she posed for the series of stylish snaps, while also carrying a Louis Vuitton backpack in her hand.

The reality personality wore her brunette locks sleeked back into a chic bun, while sporting a bronze pallet of make-up on her pretty visage. 

She captioned the snaps: ‘Freezing walks are the highlight of my day.’

It comes after Chris joked about getting married to Maura one day, but they can’t make up their minds on when it will be.

The couple took part in a fun Q&A with Maura’s followers when they were asked if they had any plans to tie the knot.

Although they only confirmed their romance in November after months of speculation, it appears the couple have already thought about getting hitched.

Reading the fan question, Maura said to her boyfriend: ‘When are we getting married, Chris?’ 

‘Oh God, erm…. next year?’  he replied awkwardly.

‘Like, as in this year?’ Maura clarified, as they were recording the video on New Year’s Day.

‘No, next year,’ Chris answered to which Maura said: ‘That’s ages!’

‘Alright, this year,’ he said quickly as Maura giggled.

Maura and Chris both appeared on last year’s series of Love Island but were never paired with each other.

The Irish beauty was partnered with dancer Curtis Pritchard who she dated for several months after the show until their split.

Chris, who was a late arrival, left the show with Harley Brash, however they were never an official couple.
