Elsewhere Maura shared a snap of her bedroom at the hotel she was staying at, which had been decorated with pink Happy Birthday and heart balloons as well as a huge cake and bouquet of roses.
‘My heart is so full,’ she captioned the snap.
Her stunning display comes weeks after Maura admitted that she does in fact get Botox in a new Instagram post – after previously denying using the injectables.
She took to her socials to do a Q&A this weekend where she opened up about her beauty regime.
One fan asked her: ‘Will you ever talk about skin treatments you have? You are glowing! Xx.’
She responded: ‘When I first got perioral dermatitis I stop getting facials altogether, now it’s just skincare and of course with the help of Botox from the best @drroshoffical.’
In the snap shared alongside she looked as radiant as ever as she showed off her smooth complexion.
The former ring girl spoke about if she’d had cosmetic work done soon after her appearance on the ITV2 reality dating show in 2021.

She said: ‘I got my lips done three months after coming out of Love Island, and lip fillers last five to six months. I haven’t had anything done since then; I just let it dissolve.
‘But people still assume I’ve had my lips done, Botox. People are even saying I’ve had my nose done when I’ve not actually had any work.’
She explained at the time: ‘I had braces on for a long time, and since my teeth have moved, they’ve actually pushed my lips out slightly.
‘I feel like I don’t need it. If I were to get my lips done now with my straight teeth, it just wouldn’t be a good look.’
It comes after Maura vowed to be at her confrontational best come January in a first look at her forthcoming appearance on The Celebrity Traitors USA.
Maura will add another string to her TV bow while battling it out to win a cash prize of $250,000 for her chosen charity after signing up for the second series of the hit show.
And a first look at the former Love Island star in action finds her dressed in a racy green latex outfit, her hair pulled into a tight bun as she offers the camera a smouldering look.
Wearing minimal cat eye makeup and a pair of silver earrings, Maura looks every inch the traitor in her first promotional pictures for the show – but her status won’t be revealed until the Peacock show finally airs on January 8.

Teasing fans in an accompanying video, she said: ‘If someone comes for me at the roundtable, god love them.’
Despite being filmed with a predominantly American cast, the show follows is filmed at Ardross castle in the Scottish Highlands – the same venue used by BBC producers for the British version.
However, Claudia Winkelman plays no part in the US variant, with hosting duties handled by Scottish actor Alan Cumming.
Higgins will be joined on the upcoming season by many other well-known faces including Jason and Travis Kelce’s mother, Donna, 74.
Discussing her forthcoming appearance on the show, which will also be streamed on BBC iPlayer, the TV personality described the events of the upcoming season as ‘chaos’.
She told The Playlist: ‘In this new season, there is chaos again, once more. There is chaos and it’s brutal. It’s brutal.
‘About halfway through, there is a scene in it that is the greatest moment in Traitors’ history. Honestly, I just cannot wait for the world to see it. It’s utter carnage and utter just mad. It’s just brilliant!’
