Love Island’s Maura Higgins has revealed she was taken to A&E after a gruesome accident.
The star shared a snap from hospital, writing on Instagram: ‘Ended up in A&E after slicing my finger to the bone.’
Clearly unimpressed with the situation, she added: ‘Happy F**king Monday!’
Oh Maura!
The 31-year-old went on to share a throwback from her idyllic holiday to the Maldives so here’s hoping she was able to take her mind off the incident.
Maura, who rose to fame on series five of the dating show, most recently appears to be focusing on her career after her split from Strictly Come Dancing pro Giovanni Pernice.
The star celebrated as she signed a contract with a top modelling agency, teasing that ‘new beginnings’ are on their way.
Maura signed with top London modelling agency Elite Model Management, whose books also boast Kendall Jenner, Adriana Lima and Olympic sprinter Dina Asher-Smith.
Elite confirmed the signing to Metro.co.uk, with Maura’s deal also including a contract with Elite’s sister agency EWG Management in New York and LA.
Speaking to The Sun, Maura said: ‘I’m so excited about this new chapter in my life, working in TV alongside modelling has always been one of my biggest passions and I can’t wait to share some of the projects I’m going to be working on.’
It came after Maura’s split from Giovanni after a brief romance.
Giovanni and Maura went public with their romance in July this year following weeks of secret dates, and they seemed besotted with one another.

Later confirming their separation on Instagram, the dancer, 31, insisted there is no bad blood between the pair, and sometimes ‘great relationships with great people can come to a natural end.’
Taking to his story, the choreographer clarified: ‘There was absolutely no wrong-doing and this should be the end of any speculation.’
