LOVE Island’s Maura Higgins and Chris Taylor kissed today – with the shirtless hunk and Irish beauty filming it for fans.
The pair, who have always denied romance rumours, took part in the ‘Kiss your best friend’ challenge on Instagram.
But it looked more than a little romantic, with Chris, 29, whipping his shirt off, before lifting her above his head.
He posted the video of them kissing on Instagram tonight saying what a brilliant idea that challenge was.
Chris wrote: “Cheers Tiktok…bloody fantastic idea 
probs shouldn’t have lunged in fairness.
“If anyone’s confused about why I took my top off…go watch Crazy, Stupid Love immediately 
.”
One fan wrote: “Omg 
this made me squeal with excitement – I need to get a life!!”
Another posted: “They already loved up! The good guys always win 
.”
Chris and Maura, also 29, have been linked for months, after she split from fellow Love Islander Curtis Pritchard.
But she has long insisted they are not dating, telling fans: “We are the best of friends.”
She recently said, when asked during a Q&A video: “This was the first question that came in and I’m not even a bit surprised.
“No, we’re not dating. We are the best of friends. We just get on really well. We got on really well in villa, but not a lot of that was shown.”
In August, HOAR revealed Maura had spent the night at Chris’s house after the pair went on a night out bowling and ice-skating together.
