Maya added no caption to the image slide, simply holding the red blooms up to the camera.
The ITV2 host, 30, and Manchester City ace Rúben, 27, have been dating since the end of last year.
And it’s not the first time she’s been treated to an impressive floral selection as back in January, the former Radio 1 DJ showcased another selection of roses with fans claiming “they’re from Ruben.”
Clearly after her long-haul trip, the sports ace was eager for a nice welcome home.
Maya also treated fans to a series of holiday snapshots on her Instagram grid, with images showing her posing on a balcony as well as stripping down to a series of bikinis.
She met the defender in September at the MTV Europe Music Awards, two months after announcing her split from rapper Stormzy.
She and Ruben were then spotted for the first time together in public on New Year’s Eve, when they shared a romantic dinner.
A source said: “Maya and Ruben swapped details at the EMAs and have chatted since, but things went up a gear in early December.
“When Ruben got injured and had to miss the congested new year fixtures, he jumped at the chance to see in 2025 with Maya in Spain.
Spending New Year’s Eve together was a real step forward in their relationship.
GETTING SERIOUS
The Sun was recently first to report how the loved-up pair were getting serious, and had taken their relationship to the next level.
A source said: “Maya and Rúben are getting more serious and she has met his mum Bernadette.

“She is very happy and in a great place in her personal life and her career.
“It’s shaping up to be a very exciting year for Maya.”
The couple got together after being introduced at the MTV EMAs in Manchester in November, following the breakdown of Maya’s on-off relationship with rapper Stormzy last summer.
At last month’s Brit Awards, it was also revealed Maya has started taking Portuguese lessons.

She captioned an Instagram post: “Lessons have started,” as a man believed to be Rúben spoke Portuguese in the background.
Speaking about her take on relationships previously, Maya said: “I’m such a lover but I am a big leaver as well.
“I know what makes me happy and I know what I like — and this is no disrespect to anyone I’ve been in a relationship with, but if it’s not that then I will leave it.
“I only want you if you are going to add to that or make it better, otherwise I am not really on it.”
