The Love Island star and podcast host had been a couple for some time, but it seems that their relationship has come to a close after realizing they may be better off as friends.

An insider close to the couple shared with MailOnline (noted here) that “Maura and Pete have decided to call off their romance,” citing clashes between the two. The source added, “There have been a few clashes, and it was eventually agreed they were better off as friends.” The on-again, off-again nature of their relationship, seemingly known to those close to them, may have been a contributing factor to their reluctance to go public with their romance.

Fans noticed that neither party had the other present on their social media.

Maura Higgins, 34, who rose to fame on Love Island and I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here!, and Pete Wicks, 37, a Strictly Come Dancing contestant, have known each other for approximately 6 years.

Although neither party has confirmed or denied recent rumors of an alleged split, Maura posted this on her Instagram stories- a photograph of flowers with the note “To Me Love Me” further fueling the media’s recent break-up claims.

While the pair’s breakup may come as a surprise to fans, it seems their decision to part ways amicably was driven by a desire for personal growth and mutual understanding.

We will have to wait and see if the duo come forward about what allegedly caused the split.
