She wrote: “My training was cancelled today as my temperature was too high!

“Praying I’m good for Sunday but might need a miracle.”

It’s been a tough week for the star, who wound up with her leg covered in blood after taking a shock 2am tumble in heels at a boozy NTAs party.

The 29-year-old suffered a fall at London’s O2 Arena last night after tripping off her stilettos.

Reality star Maura shared the gory moment with followers, posting a picture of her blood-spattered leg, writing: “Oh FFS.”

However, her management team rushed to the star’s rescue with a blue plaster from the first-aid box.

Thanking her team for bandaging her up, she then posted a snap with the caption: “And she’s the best.”

The scenes were a far cry from her big arrival, where she was seen gliding along the red carpetin a figure-hugging blue sequin dress with feathery sleeves.

Maura’s boyfriendCurtis also looked dapper in a tuxedo, complete with a blue pocket square to offset his girlfriend’s dress.

She was there to support her series of Love Island, which was nominated in the Best Challenge Show category, against a range of other big-hitters.

However, it lost out in its category to Channel 4’s Great British Bake Off.

Other big winners on the night included I’m A Celebrity, which won the Entertainment prize and Mrs Brown’s Boys, which was named best comedy.
