A source told The Sun: ‘With Tommy Fury pulling out it gave show bosses the opportunity to look at other Love Island stars and Maura stood out as the perfect candidate.
‘She’ll bringing a bit of glamour to the jungle and make a brilliant campmate because she’s got a great sense of humour and is bound to get on with everyone.
‘It’s shaping up to be a strong year for woman on I’m A Celebrity this year.’
With Tommy out of the running, it was said to have paved the way for Maura’s appearance on the show as it meant that there wouldn’t be two stars from the 2019 series of the famous dating show in the jungle.
On Monday night Maura enjoyed her last date night out with new flame Pete Wicks before heading to Australia.
She was spending some quality time with former TOWIE star Pete, 36, ahead of weeks away from each other when she takes part in the show.
Pete and Maura were first linked back in August, and last month confirmed their relationship with a PDA-filled display in London.
For their date night seeing pianist Ludovico Einaudi at the London Palladium Maura flashed her toned legs in a white frilly skirt which she wore with a black velvet waistcoat.
The pair, who first met back in 2019 after Maura’s stint on Love Island, looked happy and relaxed together.
Despite Pete being linked to his Strictly dance partner Jowita Przystal, it appears Maura and Pete are now spending more time together.
At the end of October the Maura and Pete were seen kissing in the street outside Gloria restaurant in Shoreditch.
A few days before Maura had broken her silence on the rumours surrounding her romance with Pete, while appearing on the We Need To Talk podcast with Paul Brunson.
Maura will join the likes of Coleen Rooney, Jane Moore, Tulisa and Strictly’s Oti Mabuse in the Jungle

When Paul asked Maura if she and Pete ‘were a thing’, Maura told the host: ‘We just get on very, very well. I adore him, he’s an amazing person.
‘Do you know what’s so weird? We met very soon after me coming off Love Island and we just instantly clicked.
‘Our humour is the same. It’s like that sick, dark humour. It’s very abusive. We abuse each other. Very nasty, it’s hilarious.’
Maura split from her American stuntman boyfriend Bobby Holland Hanton earlier this year, and she has also previously dated Strictly Come Dancing professional Giovanni Pernice, as well as her Love Island co-stars Christopher Taylor and Curtis Pritchard.
