Who is Maura Higgins?
Maura Higgins was born in County Longford, Ireland, on November 25, 1990. With that day, she was destined to be somewhere in the limelight and that’s pretty much what she did: grabbed the light by the neck – literally. Before we knew her as the fiery, sassy, and witty contestant from Love Island, Maura worked her way through hairdresser and a ring girl for professional boxers. But then, there is 2019, where she began her amazing journey on Love Island. And it’s a fact that really was so memorable regarding the straight-speaking and cheeky humor of Maura. The rest, as they say, are history.
Maura Higgins Career
Maura Higgins’ career is not dull. Following her Love Island stint, Maura ensured to make a long-lasting impact with her new-found fame. Since being evicted from the villa, Maura has worked with several major brands, appeared on shows such as This Morning, and presented Glow Up Ireland, the Irish equivalent of the well-known makeup competition show. Let’s also not forget her stint on Dancing on Ice in 2020, where she skated her way through the competition and proved that drama isn’t only good for a TV show. Who knew that the tough-talking nonsense spouted would be of an ice-skating star, too?
She even took her talents across the pond, hosting Love Island USA Aftersun, making her an international TV presence. And let’s not forget her fearless adventure into the I’m A Celebrity jungle in 2024, where she joined the likes of Coleen Rooney and Danny Jones. Who says you can’t go from villa to jungle? Talk about range!
Maura Higgins Net Worth
Now, how much is Maura Higgins really worth? According to sources as of 2024, Maura’s net worth is estimated at around £3.2 million, or about $4 million. Not bad for a girl who made her name initially first of all by sharing opinions on love, fashion, and dating habits on the reality show.
The bulk of Maura’s earnings comes from her modeling contracts, TV hosting gigs, and, of course, her social media influence. With millions of followers on Instagram, she makes a pretty penny from brand deals. It’s a digital world, and Maura is fully cashing in on her influencer status – though we’d bet she’d be just as rich from being a professional “straight talker” alone!
Maura Higgins Age
Maura Higgins first appeared on Love Island around her late 20s, but in 2024, she’ll be turning 34. Yes, 34! But do not worry; she is still so full of youth that you might be wondering if she has a magic potion hidden somewhere. You’d never imagine that she’s slowly pushing into her mid-30s as she continually proves that age is just a number, especially when you’re too busy being fabulous on television. Maura Higgins, you have discovered the secret to eternal youth-share that with the rest of us, please!
Maura Higgins Family: Parents
Maura’s family is a big part of her life, and she is not afraid to share her journey with fans. Born to Seamus and Sharon Higgins in County Longford, Ireland, Maura has three siblings – sisters Becki and Louise, and a brother named Jamie. Maura is actually very close to her mother, Sharon. Such is the love for her mum that Maura bought her a €45,000 Mercedes-Benz for Christmas. Yes, you read that right – a luxury car as a Christmas present. That was a “You raised me right” moment!
Maura has not shied away from revealing how tough life was with her parents separated. She had lost a wonderful friend of her childhood with the separation of her parents. Maura’s frank accounts of her life and now family support make her even more adored by the fans.
Maura Higgins Height and Weight
Let’s be real, Maura’s got that perfect body that makes us want to be best friends with her just to get her workout routine. Standing at 5 feet 6 inches (168 cm) and weighing in at 55 kg (121 pounds), Maura’s slim figure is the result of a mix of good genes and probably some serious effort behind the scenes. She’s often seen flaunting her body measurements on social media – 33-26-35. Who wouldn’t be, though? She worked really hard to get into that shape and keep it.
Her raven-dark hair and hazel eyes are just the icing on this cake. And of course, who could forget her shoe size: a US 8. Let’s face it, though; if she wore clown shoes, we’d still want to be like her.
