Maya Jama, 30, has ignited speculation about a potential relationship with Manchester City defender Rúben Dias, aged 27. The two were seen dining together in Ibiza on New Year's Eve, leading to widespread rumours about their connection. This sighting comes just six months after Maya's split from rapper Stormzy, 31, in July 2024.
In an interview with The Evening Standard last month, Maya shared that she wants her next partner to be someone she can marry and have children with. She told the publication: "I am so happy right now but the next person I meet I want to marry and have kids with, so obviously I’m feeling fussy. I’ve created such a nice life for myself alone and I don’t want anyone who’s not going to add to that. I’m in this lovely bubble and I don’t want you unless you make me happy. If you’re not, I kind of don’t need you.".
After reports surfaced about Maya dating the Manchester football star, fans took to X, formerly known as Twitter, to point out that Stormzy is a well-known Manchester United supporter. One person wrote on social media: "Stormzy supports man United, I know he's smashing things rn." Another added: "Lmao ain't Stormzy a Utd boy? Man women play chess [for real].".
In new snaps, Maya was seen at a table with the Manchester City star and one of her friends at Sa Capella in Ibiza as they prepared to bring in 2025. They didn't share any pictures of them together but there were spotted in a blurry snap that has been posted on social media.
TV presenter Maya and sports star Ruben sparked romance rumours after they started following each other on Instagram after they both went to the MTV EMAs in Manchester in November last year. The Mirror have reached out to Maya and Ruben's representatives for comment.
