Back in May 2021, rumours first surfaced that Maya Jama was dating Kendall Jenner's ex boyfriend Ben Simmons.
The FIT Australian basketball player plays for the Philadelphia 76ers and had been spotted spending a lot of time with the TV presenter.
Speculation heated up after Maya flew out to his city - Philadelphia - earlier in the year and fans couldn't help but notice that Ben had been liking Maya's Instagram posts.
Back in March, Maya posted a photo of herself in a green tracksuit and the same day, she was apparently pictured shopping with Ben in the SAME outfit. However after this was pointed out, Maya deleted the post.
Coincidence?
We're not sure.
At the time a source told The Mirror, “Things are hotting up for Maya and Ben. They are really into each other and the fact she flew to Philadelphia to be with him says a lot. They had a fun two weeks together. It’s nice to see her so happy.”
Ben split from Kim Kardashian's younger sister, Kendall at the start of 2019 and sx months later, fans spotted his comment "🔥🔥", on a photo of Maya her dressed in a mermaid clam bra and with green hair.
His Insta activity came after Maya and Stormzy's split in August 2019, after four years together.
Fast forward to 2022 and Maya and Ben went public with their relationship, got engaged and have now split.
So, here's a quick need to know on Ben...
Who is Ben Simmons?
He's a professional basketball player, so Ben is a HUGE name in America. He currently plays for the Philadelphia 76ers.
How old is Ben Simmons?
Ben was born on 20th July 1996, making him 26 years old. That also makes his star sign a Cancer.
Where is Ben Simmons from?
If you've seen videos of Ben (there's many on the internet) you may be a little confused by his accent. Ben was born in Melbourne, Australia but his dad is from New York and he has lived in America for most of his life.
When and where did Ben Simmons and Maya Jama meet?
Well, we don't know if it was the classic lockdown romance where people had dinner over FaceTime, but Ben and Maya did meet around April 2021, with reports suggesting that Maya flew out to spend time with Ben.
It was after then that fans starting to spot Ben liking Maya's Instagram posts and Maya was caught out posting (and then deleting) pictures of herself in his huge house.

1 of 102019: Tommy Fury holds Ellie-Belly
This was totally the cutest thing ever. Love-struck Tommy Fury held on to Molly-Mae Hague's beloved Ellie-Belly teddy bear while he revealed to the Love Island group that he was choosing to "stick" with Molly, instead of "recoupling" with a different girl. And Molly-Mae was SO relieved that she fell to the floor crying. The whole scene had our hearts in our throats.
2 of 102019: Olivia Bentley and Digby Edgley's post break-up chat
Usually-cool-as-ice Liv Bentley crumbled into tears after revealing to her ex-beau, Digby Edgley, how "hard it is" to witness him partying all over the city on their friends' social media accounts. She even confessed to hiding herself away in the countryside. Hun, checking what an ex is up to while you're in the middle of nowhere is not the way to deal with a split. Block, delete, move on – and tell him to get his own friends.
3 of 102019: Amy Hart leaves the Love Island villa
Air hostess Amy Hart's heart plummeted to the floor when Curtis Pritchard admitted there was something missing in their Love Island romance and broke off their relationship. Totally infatuated with ballroom dancer Curtis, Amy decided it'd be best for both of them if she took flight (sorry, not sorry), enabling her to heal her shattered self and for Curtis to move on. Bet she didn't think he'd jump straight to Maura Higgins, though… ouch.
4 of 102018: Yazmin Oukhellou has heart-to-heart with her mum
Such a touching moment between Yazmin Oukhellou and her mum. During a heart-to-heart conversation, Yaz opened up about how alone she felt. Choked up and fighting back tears, Yaz's mum went on to tell her daughter – in her Essex twang – how she'll support her during the difficult time to get back to "how I know ya". Just proves that no matter your age, your mum is always going to be there for you.
5 of 102017: Megan McKenna rages at Pete Wicks
Try to stop your eyes popping out from your sockets with this eye-opening scene. Megan McKenna truly went in at boyfriend-at-the-time Pete Wicks. Screaming, shouting, ranting and hissing, Meg really kicked off following Pete's dirty sexting scandal. Even the producers had to get involved to stop the altercation turning physical. Sh-t.
6 of 102017: Kimmy K sobs over Kayne's meltdown
Sobbing uncontrollably, Kim Kardashian-West couldn't catch her breath when she learnt of hubby Kanye West's mental breakdown, resulting in him being hospitalised. Not long after her own unnerving Parisian robbery, Kimmy K was understandably still shaken by events – and this was just the cherry on top. Emotions came bubbling to the surface in an instant.
7 of 102016: CBB's Tiffany Pollard mistakenly believes David Guest is dead
It was sad times for Angie Bowie (and the world), when legendary artist David Bowie passed away, but Celebrity Big Brother co-star Tiffany Pollard really got the wrong end of the stick upon hearing the news. After Angie told Tiffany that "David's dead", the American reality star assumed she was on about fellow CBB contestant David Guest. Hysterical, Tiff goes on to spread the CONFIDENTIAL word that their housemate died from cancer. With all that panting, raving and swearing that ensues, you'd think that it was Tiffany who suffered a personal loss…
8 of 102015: Nadiya Hussain wins The Great British Bake Off
The Great British Bake Off is one sweet treat to watch on TV, and the moment when Nadiya Hussain won the competition was truly the icing on the cake. Fairly timid, and noticeably lacking confidence in her own abilities, it was so wonderful to see her gain the recognition she deserved. Delivering her lovely buns, raspberry millefeuilles and triple-tiered lemon drizzle wedding cake, you can bet that was one tasty win.
9 of 102013: Sandro Masmanidi's backstage meltdown on Project Runway
Drama queen Sandro Masmanidi just could NOT believe that the judges didn't give him the constructive feedback he was craving on his bow-inspired gown (FYI, fellow contestant Helen Castillo had just got ripped to pieces and Sandro was declared safe). Furious, the hot-head snatched the microphone away from this clothes, stormed out the studio, pulled down a curtain, pushed over a mannequin and put his middle finger up at the camera crew. Needless to say, he wasn't welcomed back on to the show.
10 of 102013: Geordie Shore’s Charlotte tells Gary that she loves him
Oh, the embarrassment. To be vulnerable and admit to the person who you're seeing that you love them… only for it not to be returned. Eesh. Now, that's torture. Poor Charlotte Crosby has been trying to win over Gary Beadle for ages… and just when she thought the pair were moving forward. THUMP. Rejected, once again. Wine, anyone?
