Love Island star Maura Higgins is set to ramp up security at her home after it was targeted by raiders.
Those closest to the reality television star say she was left “shaken” after the three masked men ripped down the gates at her complex and tried to pinch a number of vehicles. According to The Sun, Essex Police attended the address last Wednesday after the gang shook the gates down.
An insider said: “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 source said Maura is now planning to up security around both her home and her car.
