And after announcing her big partnership, she uploaded a clip to TikTok and told her 1.4million followers: “Can’t even play”.

One fan tried to pay her a compliment by saying: “Adding tennis player to her CV.”

But Maura straightforwardly replied: “I’m s**t”.

Maura revealed she was also joined by a snake as she filmed the ad in Los Angeles.

Showing off the reptile, she said: “There’s a f*ing snake! Oh my God I am back in the jungle.

“Wow, he is so fast. Why am I not scared also?”

The ex-Love Islander later swapped her £74 tennis skirt for a red fringed bodice while still in the States for Coachella.

Maura, who kissed married McFly singer Danny Jones, 39, at a Brit Awards after-party last month, said of the look from Oh Polly: “I told the design team: ‘If I don’t faint, it’s not tight enough’.”
