Maya Jama and Ruben Dias are reportedly considering buying a £4 million Cheshire mansion once raffled by Omaze, as the couple look to move in together permanently.
Maya Jama and Ruben Dias are said to be seriously considering purchasing a luxury £4 million mansion in Cheshire that was once raffled off by Omaze. According to reports, the Love Island presenter and the Manchester City defender are ready to take the next step in their relationship by moving into a home they can call their own.
The stunning 6,300 sq ft four-bedroom property was originally won by Emily Ward through a £25 ticket as part of an Omaze charity campaign, which has previously featured stars such as Samia Longchambon and Claire Richards. The mansion, located in one of Cheshire’s most exclusive areas, is currently available to rent for around £20,000 per month, but is also up for sale if the right offer comes in.
According to The Sun, Maya and Ruben have already visited the property several times. “It’s the third time they’ve looked at the house,” a source revealed. “They spent about two hours there on Wednesday. Ruben arrived in his Lamborghini, Maya in a chauffeur-driven Mercedes. They looked deep in thought when they left together.”
The source added that the pair are growing increasingly settled together. “Maya has been spending more time in Manchester and Ruben is very happy at City. They want a place that feels like home.”
Emily Ward, the original winner of the house, previously said: “The house is spectacular — I can see why it’s so popular with millionaire footballers. It’ll be surreal popping out for milk and bumping into Wayne or Coleen Rooney!”
The couple, who confirmed their relationship earlier this year, tend to keep their romance private but have been spotted together more frequently in recent months. Maya recently shared a rare loved-up selfie, while reports suggest she’s been spending extended time in Manchester and even learning Portuguese to connect more deeply with Dias’s culture.
A source told The Sun: “Maya loves the down-to-earth nature of Manchester as well as the glamour of the football scene. London and Bristol will always be special to her, but she’s really enjoying life up north.”
The 31-year-old presenter has often shared glimpses of her Manchester visits on social media, including meals with Ruben’s private chef and outings around the city. The couple were even spotted shopping at the Apple Store in the Arndale Centre recently. Insiders say the relationship has grown serious, with Maya having already introduced Ruben to her mother, Bernadette.
