MAYA Jama and Ruben Dias kiss and cuddle to confirm their romance for the first time with a loved-up display.
The Man City defender, 27, even cheekily bit the TV star’s neck as they stood pitch side at a weekly Baller League match.
Love Island host Maya, 30, has been dating Ruben since they met at an awards bash in November but has kept their relationship under wraps until now.
The Sun’s exclusive video shows the couple hugging in a bunker behind the goal at the Copper Box Arena, in East London.
At one point the Portuguese pitch ace pulls her in for a hug, planting a smooch on her cheek and then rubs her back.
Later he playfully bites at the back of her neck.
A source said: “Maya and Ruben seemed very close, very loved up and were clearly very comfortable with each other.
“They were chatting to others around them but gravitated back to each other. They seem very happy with each other.”
It is the first time the couple have been seen together in public since they began dating.
Maya and Ruben were introduced at the MTV EMAs in Manchester in November, following the breakdown of her on-off relationship with rapper Stormzy last summer.
Last month we told how she had introduced Dias to her mum Bernadette, with sources saying they were “getting more serious”.
She also revealed in March she was taking Portuguese lessons.
The influencer-led Baller League sees former Premier League players, futsal players and celebrities face one another in 12 teams.
Maya is among several celebrities backing the new-look football format.
The TV host has teamed up with Swiss player Alisha Lehmann to lead MVPs United for the influencer-led football league.
The likes of KSI and darts star Luke Littler also attended Monday’s sport event.
