Maya Jama cut a comfortable figure in a tracksuit as she arrived back in the UK with the Love Island stars after a five-hour flight delay on Wednesday.
The presenter, 31, looked in good spirits despite the long delay departing Cape Town, South Africa following the ITV2 reality show final on Monday night.
Maya swapped her glamorous risqué dresses for a grey zip front hoodie, layered over a white T-shirt and black tracksuit bottoms.
The ITV star kept a low profile by pulling up her hood and wearing a pair of sunglasses as she made her way through Heathrow.
Maya completed her airport ensemble by styling her dark tresses in two neat plaits and rocked a pair of Nike trainers.
It was reported that the Cape Town airport experienced a power cut after a fire, causing passengers to wait hours to take off.
On the same flight, Maya was joined by the Love Island All Stars contestants as Harrison Solomon and Belle Hassan put on a very loved-up display.

The pair couldn't keep their hands off each other as they kissed in the arrivals terminal in London.
Belle cut a casual figure in a blue tracksuit complete with white crops and a black baseball cap.
Meanwhile Harrison, who finished in sixth place on the show with Belle, rocked a black tracksuit and a Louis Vuitton backpack.
Elsewhere the girls Helena Ford, Jessy Potts and Jess Harding were spotted hugging one another as they went their separate ways after landing back home.
AJ Bunker showed off her jaw-dropping figure in a grey catsuit which boasted a plunging neckline.
The star, who only lasted a few days back in the villa, looked sensational in the one-piece which she teamed with white trainers and matching long socks.
It comes after The Love Island: All Stars voting results have been revealed after Monday night's epic final.
Ciaran Davies and Samie Elishi were crowned winners of the third season of the spin-off show yesterday evening (23 February 2026).
The pair were up against Millie Court and Zac Woodworth, Leanne Amaning and Scott van-der-Sluis, Lucinda Strafford and Sean Stone and Whitney and Yamen Sanders.
Now Love Island have since shared by how much Ciaran and Samie won by on their Instagram page.
Loved-up pair Ciaran and Samie got 35.22% of the vote, followed by Millie and Zac who got 23.38%.
Leanne and Scott received 19.41%, while Lucinda and Sean got 12.77% of it, and lastly, Whitney and Yamen ended up with 9.23%.

And while many were over the moon with the results, it left some sharing a theory that it was down to the producers.
One said in the comments section: 'That’s not our votes, that’s the producers votes; I don’t believe it, who’s fiddling the votes;
'who believes this? Its not adding up to anything'.
Others rushed to support the new couple, 'Why everyone so bitter about Samie and Cieran winning?; My winners;
'Sammie and Ciaran the most genuine humble couple ever.'
Daily Mail have contacted ITV for comment.
Love Island: All Stars returned to our screens this year on January 15.
The show follows previous stars return to the South African villa for a second chance at finding love.
Winner Ciaran shot to fame on the ITV2 show back in 2024 and placed second alongside ex girlfriend Nicole Samuel.
Meanwhile Samie took part in the ninth series back in 2023 and later returned to the All Stars villa last year - but failed to find a connection.
When asked why they think the public voted for them, Ciaran said: 'We stayed in our own lane, we didn’t go and cause huge problems in the Villa.'
Samie added: 'Maybe we’re relatable, real people? I like to think so. Very true to ourselves.'
'Yeah, the way we were with each other, that’s maybe why we got the votes for the win,' Ciaran continued.
'Thank you to anyone who voted so much for voting, it was a surreal moment. Supporting us on that mad, mad journey. Me and Samie will just keep doing what we’re doing when we are back home.'
Breaking down in tears, Samie emotionally thanked viewers for voting for them, with the thrilled couple sharing a kiss in celebration.
Samie and Ciaran coupled up soon after she entered the villa as a bombshell, and despite many late arrivals and twists, the pair's romance was the strongest of the series.
Speaking to host Maya Jama ahead of their win, Ciaran confessed he knew Samie was 'a bit of him' mere minutes after she entered the villa.
Samie agreed, admitting that while there were other male bombshells who entered the villa, none of them turned her head.
She added: 'No offence to anyone who came in but they didn't even touch the sides compared to Ciaran.'

It wasn't a smooth ride for the pair, as Ciaran was briefly coupled up with Lucinda after she entered the villa, leading to tensions between the two girls, which culminated in a huge row after the Snog, Marry, Pie show challenge.
Ciaran said: 'Looking back at it, me and Samie have spoken about this and to see her that upset, I didn’t realise at the time how upset I made her, until two weeks after, which was really hard to hear, especially from Sophie and Josh as they said the same thing.'
Before being announced as runners-up, Millie revealed that Zac was hoping to spend a 'month or two' with her in the UK, and she had plans to reunite with him in the US.
Earlier in the show, Scott van-der-Sluis and Leanne Amaning made it to third place, despite previously being tipped as bookies favourites to win.
Lucinda Strafford and Sean Stone finished in fourth place, after a huge storm around the legitimacy of their romance.
The couple have brushed off accusations that Lucinda is in a relationship with clothing CEO Huayi Huang, who is funding her lifestyle.
Yamen Sanders and Whitney Adebayo were the first to be out of the winners running, finishing the final in fifth place.
Harrison Solomon also finally addressed his ex Lauren Wood's claims they were 'still together' when he entered the villa.
The footballer hit back at his former girlfriend's accusations in Monday's final, stating it was a 'shame' she'd spoken about their failed relationship publicly.
Harrison famously quit the Love Island villa so he could be with Lauren during the 2025 series, but in November it was revealed the pair had split.
After Harrison entered the All Stars villa, Lauren shared that she believed that they were still 'in a relationship' when he joined the show.
But speaking during the Love Island: All Stars final, Harrison hit back at the claims and confirmed that they had 'amicably' split up at the end of October, as he watched Lauren's comments during an appearance on Joe Baggs' podcast for the first time.
He told Maya Jama: 'It's a shame because I feel like we broke up v amicably, I thought a lot of things she said in the podcast were untrue, but it's something I don't really want to air on national TV, I need to air it in private, have the conversation with her and go from there.
'I don't want to air it all on national TV.
'We ended at the end of October, last time I saw her was end of October, we've spoken a couple of times after we broke up.'
Asked whether he'd even indicated to Lauren they could reunite, Harrison added: 'Not at all and it's a shame she said that and tried to twist things but it's a shame.'
Belle Hassan, who coupled up with Harrison in the villa, then shared her thoughts on Lauren's comments.
She said: 'I actually haven't watched it, it's not nice she's upset, things could have been clearer, fair enough, I think breakups are quite difficult, especially if you ended amicably, sometimes the lines can be quite blurred.
'It's for you to sort in private but it's not really my business to get involved. Hopefully you guys get it sorted.'
