MAYA Jama has flashed her HUGE engagement ring as she and her fiance Ben Simmons went for brunch in New York.
The TV presenter kept it casual as she and her basketball player beau headed out together on Monday morning, strolling hand in hand.

Bundling into the back of a waiting car, the star completed her look with a blue handbag and baseball cap as she held her beau's hand.
The sports star opted for green trousers and a black jumper, accessorising with a huge silver chain and dark sunglasses.

Maya became engaged to Ben over Christmas after seven months of dating when he proposed on a trip to the US.
The TV presenter spent the holiday season at the sporting star's £3.7million mansion in Moorestown, New Jersey.
NBA player Simmons popped the question but the pair had kept the news quiet, only telling close family and friends.

Confirming the engagement, a source close to the couple said: “Ben adores Maya and has fallen head over heels for her.
"He picked up the ring on Jewelers’ Row in the diamond district of Philadelphia the day before he proposed.
“He chose the ring himself and felt he knew exactly what she would want. Maya said yes and they’re both thrilled.”
The source said Simmons had been nervous about popping the question because Maya had said no to a previous ex when he proposed.
They added: “He and Maya have been together for much less time but, thankfully, she said yes. Ben was so excited, but they’ve decided to keep the news low-key and tell only those closest to them.
“Maya flew to New Jersey to spend Christmas with him and is still there now.
“They had a small family gathering last weekend and announced their engagement.”
