The former Love Island star, 34, split from Pete in February this year after a short fling.
Soon after Maura made a jibe about Pete ‘cheating’ on her – which led to Olivia defending Pete to insist that he was never unfaithful.
The Sun reports that Maura has now unfollowed them both amid the tensions. The publication claims Olivia and Pete have also unfollowed Maura.
A representative for Maura has been contacted by MailOnline for comment.
MailOnline exposed their secret rift last year after Olivia accused 2019 Islander Maura, 34, of using the ‘same script’ including her reasons for entering the ITV2 dating show – ‘revenge on an ex.’

In March this year Olivia revealed the meaning behind the ‘cheating’ joke she made about her friend Pete on the Brits red carpet.
The TV presenter, 33, made the cheeky quip while talking to MailOnline on the night after it was claimed Pete’s infidelity ended his relationship with Maura.
Speaking about Sam Thompson, Pete told us: ‘It’s hard for Sam tonight because I’ve got a new work wife. But, he’s not far away, he’s over there actually.’
He added: ‘It is a little bit weird because it feels like I am…’
‘Cheating?’ Olivia interrupted as they both broke out into fits of laughter, before she added: ‘Not the first time, I might add.’
‘Because… I have never done that,’ Pete said.
Olivia then clarified on her Instagram Story that they only joked about the claims because they are untrue and she ‘doesn’t find cheating funny’.
Taking to social media, Olivia wrote: ‘Cheating’s not funny. Pete didn’t cheat. That is the joke. Hope that helps.’

She added: ‘Well I appreciate that you could read between the lines – I had to comment because A LOT of people couldn’t – because that’s not something I would find funny at all.’
The former Love Island star went on to explain that she seemingly means no ill will towards Maura and is simply being protective of her friend.
Olivia said: ‘And I’m just going to caveat that with with I’m very protective of my friends but I don’t hate / have feuds / at war with anyone.
‘You guys have seen my work schedule – I don’t have time to eat most days.’
She continued: ‘When I get up in my feelings I probably shouldn’t do coded Instagram Stories because then things get misconstrued. I’ll just say it with my chest in future if I’m upset.’
The next say after the music awards ceremony, Pete took a swipe at his ex Maura after she kissed Danny Jones at the BRIT Awards afterparty.
The former TOWIE star and the Love Islander agreed to part ways after a series of rows just before the event.

Maura was then seen sharing a ‘drunken kiss’ with McFly’s Danny Jones – who has been married to his wife Georgia for over a decade – as they attended Universal Music’s BRIT Awards afterparty.
Seemingly making a dig at his ex on his Staying Relevant podcast, Pete savagely said his would ‘banish Love Island from the world’ when asked by a fan.
His co-star Sam Thompson laughed and replied: ‘That’s so aggressive.’
Pete continued: ‘It takes over everything, that’s all anyone talks about for f**king three months of the year.’
He added: ‘It’s very difficult to have small talk with people when that’s their reference because I don’t know anything about it.’
Sam said: ‘Let’s be honest I can’t imagine you hanging out with people who say, “When’s the nearest episode of Love Island?”‘
Pete responded: ‘No but even when I walk through the office… just no.’
Maura starred on the fifth series of the ITV programme back in 2019, while Sam’s ex, Zara McDermott, also featured on the show in 2018.
