They were said to have been in ‘deep conversation’ at the event, with a source saying: “Stormzy and Maya are together again. They’re taking it slow but are very much back in each other’s lives after a long time when they didn’t speak or see each other.”

A second insider at the party said: “They spent loads of time together at the afterparty and were chatting in a corner for ages.

“It seemed as though they went somewhere else together afterwards because she walked out and then he followed her out five minutes later.”
