Police were called in the early hours of last Wednesday after the gang broke open the large metal gate by shaking and pushing at it.

A source said: “Maura was shaken up.

“Neighbours caught it all on CCTV and it was chilling to see three masked men ram through the gates and start trying to break into cars.

“Maura has lived in her gated community for three years and said she no longer feels safe.

“There are a number of high- profile names in that complex and living in that area. It is worrying for everyone, including Maura.

“The complex has a real ­community feel so they are all supporting each other and the CCTV has been shared around.

“Maura is upping security on her car and at her home.”

The property is in a popular area of Essex where Mark Wright and Michelle Keegan also live.

Irish Maura, 32, found fame on Love Island in 2019.

She went on to make a name for herself as a TV presenter. She has hosted segments on This Morning and fronted the BBC’s show Glow Up Ireland.

But Maura has previously insisted that people misjudge her.

She said: “When I meet people out, they always say, ‘You’re so much nicer than I expected.’”
