MAURA Higgins was left red-faced when her Love Island USA co-stars stitched her up with an unseen clip.
In a behind the scenes peek at the set of spin-off show Aftersun, the reality star, 33, could be seen eyeing up studio guest Harrison Luna.
The handsome finance worker’s piercing blue eyes and slicked back hair appeared to have Maura hot under the collar and she couldn’t take her eyes off him as a production crew member changed his microphone.
She wafted her face with her prompt cards and said: “I’ll just sweat over here. It’s this fire.”
Ignoring the fire pit close by, bombshell Harrison said: “Yeah it’s pretty hot here in Fiji.”
When their interview had wrapped, Harrison stood up and offered Maura his hand, saying: “Nice to see you again.”
As he turned to leave she looked at him dreamily and made a heart shape with her hands as she mouthed “love you”.
She then said to herself: “What a man. Can I go in as a bombshell?”
Back in the present day, Maura was mortified watching the clip back.
She said: “I’m actually weirded out by how much I was staring at him.”
Earlier this year we revealed how she had split from her Hollywood star boyfriend after a whirlwind romance.
She had been dating American stuntman beau Bobby Holland Hanton since last summer.
However, in March, insiders said Maura realised there was no future for them as a couple.
A source told The Sun: “It was really fun for a while.
“But they’re different people. It’s over between them.”
