MAURA Higgins looks incredible in some new underwear snaps as she stripped off for a shoot.
The 34-year-old Irish beauty took part in a campaign for M.A.C Cosmetics, which encouraged those taking part to “strip down and celebrate your boldest, most authentic self.”
And Maura certainly did just that as she lay on a bed in some sheer underwear holding a lipstick and shooting a sultry look to the camera.
Maura posed with a glam makeup look and her dark locks cascading down in one shot, while donning black lingerie.
Across the photo, covering the star’s chest is a red band, which reads: “I only wear M.A.C.”
In another photo, the Love Island star opted for nude pants and a matching bra as she gazed at the camera.
Maura posted the snap on her social media, writing: “I Only Wear Mac 
“Starting off the year as the face of Mac’s newest Campaign
Such a pinch me moment!!!!!!! Keep an eye out for more pics & videos around the uk & irl @maccosmeticsuki.”
Fans were delighted by Maura’s sultry snaps, as one person wrote: “Holy s*** you look Good! ICONIC.”
Another added: “Devine UNREAL! Hugeeeeeeeee congrats x.”
And a third penned: “Ahhhhhhh total absolute goddess! Of COURSE you only wear MAC.”
The campaign features a series of explicit images from what M.A.C have described as “outspoken cultural icons.”
Those featured include Odell Beckham Jr., Martha Stewart, Tiffany “New York” Pollard, and more.
The shoot comes days after Maura revealed she has her nipple pierced, while wearing a ‘no bra’ top.
Maura – who is dating Towie legend Pete – is known for her daring style, and her latest pictures didn’t disappoint.
The model looked incredible in her tight white t-shirt that left very little to the imagination.
The stunning photos revealed she had her left nipple pierced.
The intimate jewellery could be seen peeking through her top.
The new snaps come as Maura once again faced a grilling over her relationship with Pete.
Last week, she faced an awkward moment on Loose Women when she was questioned over the status of their relationship.
The pair have been keen to keep their relationship a secret and have only given fans small snippets of information.
But in a recent interview on Loose Women, panellist Frankie Bridge wasted no time in asking her about her relationship with Pete.
After Frankie said that they made a good couple, Maura coyly replied: “Do we really? I never really thought about it.”
Going on, she said: “Not really much to tell, we spend time together, get on really well, and he is a great person.
“But there is nothing to tell.”
Meanwhile, in another recent interview Maura was asked whether she has a “terrible taste in men,”, and the Love Island star replied: “Yes.”
She went on to say “it would be lovely” to be in love, as she opened up to The Times about her dating life.
Maura continued to say she’s “happy now,” when asked whether or not she’s in love.
CAPTAIN Sir Tom Moore’s name has been removed from the scandal-hit charity established in tribute to the Covid hero.
New filings at Companies House indicate The Captain Tom Foundation will now be known by the equally catchy “The 1189808 Foundation”.
The latest accounts, disclosed last summer, showed the entity had assets exceeding £262,600.
It comes after the organisation’s website was removed following a damning investigation by the Charity Commission.
Former Army officer Capt Tom became a national treasure after raising more than £30million for the NHS by doing laps of his garden during the pandemic.
He passed away in 2021 aged 100 but his family has been criticised over management of funds raised in his name.
Daughter Hannah Ingram-Moore, 53, and her husband Colin, 66, had both been made trustees in 2021.
But were disqualified from being charity trustees after the humiliating probe found the pair had received “significant personal benefit” from the “mismanaged” foundation.
The Charity Commission report also highlighted “repeated failures” with both Hannah and Colin’s leadership and “repeated instances of misconduct and/ or mismanagement”.
This comes as Hannah’s own business Club Nook, that she co-runs with her husband, had collapsed, according to accounts filed with Companies House.
The business had been created to manage The Captain Tom Foundation’s commercial interests and intellectual property.
But the latest documents have shown it only has current assets of £149, a stark contrast to last year’s £336,300.
Liabilities have also dropped from £106,104 to £19,246 net within a year.
The couple previously pocketed £1.5million from a book deal, giving none to Capt Tom’s charity.
In November last year, the foundation asked for the cash back “immediately and without the need for further action”.
It is understood much of the funds were put into an illegal luxury spa in their garden using the Captain Tom Foundation charity name.
The block was demolished earlier this year after the family lost an appeal against Central Bedfordshire Council’s order for it to be torn down.
The report also reveals that Ingram-Moore blocked from paying herself a £150,000 salary as charity CEO, took £85,000 a year and reimbursed her own firm with £80,000 in costs from the foundation.
The couple hoodwinked the public by promising royalties to the charity from its merchandise website.
The 30-page report published on Thursday came after a two-year inquiry
It found the Ingram-Moores carried out repeated instances of misconduct.
These include:
Instead buyers were redirected to external sites where no commission to good causes was collected.
And they gave the charity £8,900 from a Capt Tom gin from profits thought to be well over £100,000.
Publishers Penguin agreed to pay a £1.4million advance to the Ingram-Moores’ private company for Capt Tom’s memoir on the understanding a contribution would be made to his charity.
He raised nearly £39million for NHS charities by walking 100 lockdown laps of his garden.
In the prologue to Tomorrow Will Be a Good Day, Capt Tom, who died in 2021 aged 100, wrote: “I have also been given the chance to raise even more money for the charitable foundation established in my name.”
Just £17,000 in royalties went to charity.
The report concluded: “The public would understandably feel misled given no donation has been made to the charity.”
Last year, Mrs Ingram-Moore wept as she told Piers Morgan she and her hubby pocketed £800,000 from book sales.
But the true scale of their plunder is far greater.
The Ingram-Moores, who used Capt Tom’s name to try to sell their £2.25million home in Marston Moretaine, Bedfordshire, have been banned as charity trustees.
Penguin said: “We are extremely disappointed.”
Liz Brownsell, of law firm Birketts, said: “There is nothing suggesting fraud.
“It is more a moral than a legal issue.”
GARDAI have sealed off the garden of a house in Co Donegal following reports that human remains may be buried there.
Detectives and forensic officers moved into the house at Leck Cottages in the Oldtown area of Letterkenny at first light this morning.
They began removing a number of items, including a coal bunker, from the garden of the house in question in an attempt to begin a search.
A mini excavator has also been brought into the area and will be moved in shortly to carry out a dig on the site.
Sources have stressed that the investigation has nothing to do with the current owner of the house whose garden is being searched.
The owner of the house has been briefed by Gardai on the matter.
It is understood any human remains which may be on site are of a historical nature.
Gardai have launched the search following a call from a member of the public.
Locals in the area have been shocked following the arrival of a Garda team into the area.
Gardai have been contacted for an official comment on the operation.
LOVE Island bombshell Danielle Sellers has long been in a secret feud with a fellow villa star.
Danielle, 29, who is a former Sun page three girl, once had a blazing row with now-dumped Kaz Crossley over a Love Island hunk.
Six years ago, Kaz, who has now been dumped from the island, accused Danielle of sleeping with her boyfriend Theo Campbell.
The women were reported to have had a massive row while at a star-studded event back in 2019.
The row got so heated that it even resulted in Kaz throwing a drink at Danielle’s pal Maria Wild.
Kaz, who was 25 at the time, was asked to leave a London nightclub after she feuded with Danielle, who was 24, and Maria, who was 22.
An onlooker said that Kaz screamed at Danielle at the time, saying: “What so you haven’t f***ed my man?”
The source explained how everyone had been enjoying the event and having a good time, noting: “Danielle and Maria were having a catch-up with Theo but the situation changed when Kaz approached them.”
They said: “Kaz looked annoyed that Theo had been talking to the girls and Maria asked her if there was a problem.
“She then accused Danielle of sleeping with Theo in the past and shouted ‘What so you haven’t f***ed my man?’
“Kaz was waving her arms and pointed her fingers towards Danielle’s face so Maria stepped in and pushed her away.
“In retaliation Kaz threw her drink over Maria and was then asked to leave the event.”
Another source then spilled: “Danielle and Maria called Kaz ’embarrassing’ and just laughed it off.
“Danielle has never slept with Theo and would own up to it if she had in the past.”
Ahead of her villa return, Danielle said: “I like Scott, Luca and Curtis so I’ll be pulling them for chats.”
But she admitted things could get a little bit frosty between her and Ekin-Su, who is partnered with Curtis.
Love Island All Stars is back on TV for season 2.
Here we take you through the line-up of all the Islanders who are in the villa so far.
Bombshells
Each series brings with it a string of hot single bombshells making their epic entrance into the villa.
Here’s who has joined the villa so far:
“I already know Gabby and Elma and it’s going to be nice to meet Ekin-Su,” Danielle said, “Though I’m not sure how she’ll react when I chat to Curtis?!”
She went on to say: “I was a lot younger going in the first time, I was 21! I entered during Casa Amor and lots of the boys were in strong couples!
“8 years on, I’m older and know what I want, so I’m going to just go for it!
“I feel like I’m more confident in myself now, I’m more mature and I’ve grown up a lot since last time so I’ve learnt a lot.”
Ahead of her villa stint, a source told us: “Danielle is smoking hot and is the ideal age for Scott as he’s drifting apart from Tina after the explosive Vegas row with Luca.”
