LOVE Island’s Maura Higgins and Chris Taylor were cosied up in front of the TV last night amid rumours of a romance between the pair.
Last month, the pair put the rumour mill into overdrive after Chris was spotted leaving Maura’s home in the same clothes he had worn two days earlier.
And now the Love Island stars were seen together again as they watched the premiere of Maura’s new series, You’re Joking Me? on ITV2.
In the short clip filmed by Michael Griffiths, Maura can be heard fuming at Joe Garratt while snacking on some crisps.
She said: “Never do that ever again. Never do that again. That’s creepy”.
While she warned Joe, Chris was seen sitting close to the reality star on the sofa making faces beside her.
As he made his animated expressions, Michael could be heard giggling: “He’s mocking her”.
Earlier this week, the ITV2 stars teamed up for a hilarious Titanic sketch.
Last month, the two put the rumour mill into overdrive after Chris was spotted leaving Maura’s home in the same clothes he had worn two days earlier.
An onlooker said: “Chris looked bleary-eyed but he definitely had a spring in his step. He skipped to his car.”
The pair’s closeness has had co-stars buzzing for months.
Last month, they met pals Jordan Hames, Michael Griffiths and Danny Williams at Sheesh restaurant in Chigwell, Essex.
Maura and Chris, left in his Mercedes and headed to her flat nearby.
A separate source told how the pair were seen and heard on Maura’s patio last month also.
The source said: “They were there hours, chatting away.”
And Chris continued to set tongues-wagging as he claimed on Instagram that he needed ‘to find a Minnie’ days after Maura said she was looking for a ‘Mickey’.
The quiff-tastic hunk copied Maura’s pout and hand position for the sultry snap wearing a black dressing gown and Mickey Mouse ears.
Sharing the pic with his 894k followers, Chris, 29, captioned the snap: “just need to find a Minnie”.
Straightaway, Maura, also 29, replied: “Interesting 
“.
Their fellow Love Island stars were quick to make a comment on the photo, with Joe Garratt writing: “I wonder who 
,” and Francesca Allen penning: “Hunnnnn ”.
Chris coupled up with Harley Brash in last July’s fifth series but they split soon after.
Irish beauty Maura and Curtis Pritchard came fourth and were an item until she ended it this March.
