Yesterday, Maura stepped out looking red hot on a Valentine's date following the split.The reality star looked drop-dead gorgeous in the red show-stopping outfit as she was accompanied on the dinner date by her friend.

Maura shared a carousel of images with her legion of followers, one of which featured a huge bouquet of red roses.

The star made sure her fans knew she’d bought herself the roses.

In what appeared to be a sly dig at Pete, a little card could be seen beneath the red blooms, which read: “To me, love me.”

Maura also appeared to take a swipe at Pete, captioning the post: "Left on Red," which prompted a fan to ask: "Oh no, what did Pete do?"

Maura and Pete had been linked with each other for more than a year before going official last autumn, and they were pictured snogging in pubs on multiple occasions.

But the pair remained extremely coy about their romance during their time together.

The couple spent a romantic Christmas break together in Ireland after her time on I'm A Celebrity and his successful Strictly stint.

It followed a rare admission from both that they missed one another while Maura was in the jungle.

Maura, meanwhile, who has previously dated Love Island legends Curtis Pritchard and Chris Taylor, was just as cagey on Loose Women last month.

When panellist Frankie Bridge said that her and Pete made a good couple, Maura 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.”

Pete was seen looking downcast as was spotted for the first time since his shock split from Maura this weekend.

On Saturday morning, Pete was seen moving boxes into his car with the help of his mum Tracy.

The Strictly star wore a cream jumper, a pair of black trousers and some trainers.

 

He was seen moving plastic boxes filled with clothes to the boot, while him mum clutched some coats on a clothes hanger.

Despite yesterday being Valentine's Day, the TV personality looked far from in the mood to celebrate romance.
