We might be about to see a lot more of Maya Jama as she eyes up a huge career move. The Love Island host is looking to cash in on her popularity by launching her own YouTube series.

Sources close to the presenter, 30, say she’s keen to follow in the footsteps of influencers such as Molly-Mae Hague, who make millions from their content. Maya even teased the plans on Instagram, calling out the “lurking likers”.

She wrote: “10 million eyes on my last post and 115 million in the last 30 days. The lurking to like ratio is crazy. Maybe I do need to start YouTube so I can convert the watchers to money.” It comes after Maya looked happier than ever as she shared a series of romantic snaps with Man City boyfriend Ruben Dias.

Maya launched a YouTube channel 12 years ago, but she hasn’t updated it in a while. She has reportedly been having discussions about how to monetize her popularity, according to sources.

The insider claimed that Maya is “very business-minded.” She realizes that Instagram is not financially viable, but she wants to maximize her potential to make money.

More than two million people subscribe to Molly-Mae’s YouTube channel, which generates significant income through brand acquisitions and ad revenue.

For her birth vlog, the former Love Islander reportedly made £4,000 in just 24 hours.

Maya, who will front the Love Island final on Monday, has her fingers in a number of pies. As well as presenting, she recently landed her “dream role” as a gangster’s wife in Guy Ritchie’s hit Netflix series, The Gentlemen.

She also co-owns the Swedish plant-based milk company Sproud, and she also has eyewear label MIJ Masks, as well as significant brand partnerships with Gordon’s Gin and Rimmel London Cosmetics.

The big news comes after Maya took the major step of going Instagram official with the new man in her life, Manchester City footballer Ruben Dias. And it looks as though things have been going from strength to strength over recent months, if her latest post is anything to go by.

Maya and Ruben spent quality time together on the party island of Ibiza after completing her filming duties. Maya can be seen laughing coyly into Ruben in a split second.

Ruben held her hand in a loving embrace while he was still there.

On News Year’s Eve in December of last year, there was initial speculating about Maya dating Ruben.

At the MTV Europe Music Awards in Manchester in November, the pair bumped into one another.
