Looking tanned, the influencer let her long brunette hair flow down her chest and shoulders in blow-dried waves.

“In this heat, I’ve just got to give a shout-out to my fans,” she joked in the comments of the upload – after two weeks of Instagram silence.
It comes after Maura revealed she was sexually assaulted while ASLEEP in a taxi after her fans asked her about her “worst encounter”.
Model Maura shockingly told she isn’t ready to reveal the details of her most horrifying experience, but opened up about an incident with a taxi driver.
She said: “The worst one I’ve never ever ever opened up about and don’t think even think I’m ready yet. It was one of the scariest thing that’s ever happened to me.

“I had an incident with a taxi driver a long time ago in Ireland.
“Silly me, I fell asleep. My friends were dropped off before me and I was dropped off alone because I lived alone at the time.
“I woke up and his hand was right up my skirt. Honestly, I sobered up so quickly. I mesmerised his taxi number so quick and still remembered it the next day.”
Previously, Maura showed off her VERY toned abs in a workout snap as she gave fans a sneak peek at her gym routine.
