and her boyfriend have ramped up security at their £4million Cheshire home after being targeted in a burglary attack.
The TV presenter, 31, and Manchester City ace, 28, were left 'devastated' after thieves ransacked their mansion in January.
At the time of the attack, Ruben was playing away against Galatasaray and Maya was notably in filming .
The burglars made off with thousands of pounds worth of items including designer clothes, jewellery and electronics, according to reports.
The couple had only recently moved into the Omaze prize-draw mansion, which is said to cost £20,000 a month to rent.
Now, the couple have decided to strengthen security at their property by paying for a Strongbox 24-hour security team to live in the garden - despite having 'state of the art security systems'.

'The couple asked a security firm to come in and assess the property and the suggestion was that having live-in round the clock guards would act as a great deterrent, a source told The Sun.

Daily Mail has contacted Maya and Ruben's representatives for a comment.
On the day of the targeted attack, Ruben reportedly raised the alarm after returning home from the away game and discovering the house had been turned upside down with valuable items missing.
A source said at the time: 'They are devastated, the house is the first they have moved into as a couple and is very special to them. Thankfully, neither was at home, but they are very upset that their personal space has been invaded.
They added to The Sun: 'Maya was very proud to move into her first home with Ruben and took lots of videos and pictures while in the house which she posted on her social media.
'Previously in their relationship, she was back and forth from London and he was living in a city centre flat. That’s why this property means so much to them.'
A spokesperson for Cheshire Police told Daily Mail: 'Shortly after 11.10pm on Wednesday 28 January, police received reports of a burglary at an address in Woodbrook Road, Alderley Edge.'
They added:'Officers attended and found entry had been made to the property and a number of items had been stolen.
'Enquiries are currently ongoing and anyone with any information should contact Cheshire Police on 101 or through the website.'
The couple were spotted viewing the ultra-modern property which was an Omaze prize-draw mansion in Alderley Edge back in November.
It was won by mother Emily Ward with a £25 ticket and she is still listed as the property owner.

The stunning 6,300 sq ft four-bedroom home boasts panoramic views, landscaped gardens, a luxury indoor leisure suite - and a sophisticated security system.
The mansion was reportedly available to rent for around £20,000 a month, but is also on the market for sale.

When asked if he is concerned about the publicity surrounding their relationship, Ruben told The Telegraph: 'No, I think that's the last thing you think about.
'We are just both aware of it, and there's no way around it.
'But at the end of the day, you don't make it about it. You make it about everything else, and then that's an extra you have to deal with and, obviously, be smart with it.'
The couple spent their second Christmas together.
