Maya Jama: How My Make-Up Artist Content Has Been a Long Journey

Maya Jama, 28, recently wrote an emotional tribute to her make-up artist of ten years, Letitia Sophia, as she reflected upon their “journey together”. The Love Island host took to Instagram to share a picture of Letitia showcasing her make-up applying skills on the brunette beauty and gushed over her in the caption. Maya revealed that when she couldn’t afford both hair and make-up, Letitia would double up as both. The two have been friends for ten years and have been on a “proper journey together”.

Maya started her showbiz career in 2012 and went on to present her own show on BBC Radio 1 until 2020. This year, she took over as Love Island host from Laura Whitmore, who announced she was stepping down from the role back in August. A teaser released last month featured Maya with brunette wavy locks and wearing a glittery jumpsuit, seemingly adorned with a sketch of Cupid’s arrow.

Speaking out on her new role earlier this month, Maya vowed to be “as involved as I can” in delivering viewers all the inside details from the famous ITV dating show villa. She said her role is to deliver information and facts, but because she loves the show so much, she wants to be the best mate to the contestants and give them advice. Viewers took to social media to discuss the amount of airtime the new presenter was getting already, with some saying she had already had more screen time in one episode than Laura Whitmore did in one season.
