Less is Maura
Ring girl in red hot Ann Summers shoot
LOVE Island beauty Maura Higgins set pulses racing in a sexy lingerie shoot.
The Longford beauty looked sizzling as she modelled a red and black lacy basque and black stockings for Ann Summers.
In another stunning shot for the company’s Winter 2019 Be More Maura campaign, she stares seductively at the camera while wearing a daring burgundy bra with mesh detail.
The Ballymahon ring girl said: “A strong sense of confidence can often divide opinions so when I came out of the Love Island villa it was great to see women supporting me with some of the topics I had been open about.
“I know who I am and other people’s opinions don’t matter to me as long as I am true to myself.
“I think as women, self-love and confidence is something we should embrace and take ownership of. “I want to encourage women to feel confident about themselves and have the courage to stand up for what they want, so Ann Summers is the perfect partner to help me spread this empowering message and unite us girls together.”
The company’s Natalie Amosu added: “We’re so excited to be working with Maura on our #Bemoremaura AW/19 campaign. Maura is the definition of female empowerment, encouraging women to embrace their bodies and sexuality.”
Meanwhile, the 28-year-old’s boyfriend Curtis Pritchard explained her absence from the Pride Of Britain awards on Monday night.
The dancer, 23, exclusively told the Daily Mirror: “She’s meant to be here but unfortunately has commitments – Dancing On Ice, she’s training, she’s working hard, so she can’t be here.” He said she’s come a long way since first donning the skates, adding: “All I can say is that she’s improving. I think it’s starting to click with her, she’s doing really well.”
