Former Love Islander Maura, 34, has made several saucy confessions during her time on the show, including one where she revealed she told her mother “EVERYTHING!”.

But Sharon has now said sometimes her daughter gives a away a bit “too much” information.

Speaking to The Mirror, she said: “I would say to her on Facetime, ‘is everything okay? Are you happy in all aspects of your relationship?’

“And she would always try and embarrass me by saying this, that and the other and I would say: ‘too much information. I don’t need to know, I don’t need to know.

“She likes to make me embarrassed.”

Meanwhile, earlier today The Sun exclusively revealed how Sharon is yet to meet her rumoured lover Pete Wicks.

She told us: “I don’t know him. I only know what she has told me, which is that she’s single. She’s just getting on with it.

“I suppose being single, she’s a young woman, she’s going to date. She obviously doesn’t want anything serious yet, so I don’t know.

“I never watch Strictly. I’ve never had interest in it. It’s not a show I’ve ever watched, so I’m not going to start now.”

After starring on Love Island in 2019, Maura gained a reputation for being out spoken

Commenting on this, Sharon told us: “I’ve always brought my children up to stand up for themselves. You have to in this life.

“Maura has always listened to that end of things with me.

“Because you cannot go about and have people insult you.

“If there’s anything somebody says that is inappropriate, you’re entitled to speak up and tell them, ‘No, you cannot do that’.

“I like that she can stand up for herself.

“But also the other side of Maura is, if she has an issue with somebody, she’ll tell them.

“She doesn’t hold grudges. If it’s ironed out, it’s forgotten about.”

Asked about her friendship with Reverend Richard Coles – who she lived with in the Jungle Junkyard – Sharon said: “Maura gets on with everybody.

“That was the pinnacle for me – I loved the banter between the two of them. It had me in stitches, I loved it.

“Maura loves meeting new people, and anybody she does meet, they’re friends for life. That’s the way she is.

“Maura is Maura. She has a potty mouth, but she’s funny. I think with Maura, it’s just her character.

“She’s fun-loving and she’s a bubbly girl. She’s always making any situation bright somehow by cracking jokes and having fun.”
