Maya Jama set pulses racing as she put on a leggy display in a trio of striking new images on Tuesday.

The TV and radio presenter, 26, turned heads in a pair of bold patterned hotpants and a matching tie-up shirt by Dolce & Gabbana as she posed up a storm for photographer Emily Almodovar.

Maya teamed her eye-catching co-ord with a pair of towering coral pink tie-up heels as she worked her magic in front of the camera.

The TV personality accessorised with statement earrings and a gold chain, while wearing her raven locks tumbling around her shoulders in bouncy curls. 

Maya wrote on her Instagram page alongside the striking gallery: ‘Too experienced to be taken for a ride.’ 

The presenter will soon return to TV screens alongside Peter Crouch, 40, for a re-branded version of his BBC1 show Save Our Summer.

A source confirmed to MailOnline on Tuesday the series will air during this year’s European Championships.

The show will air how it was originally intended, a companion to Euro 2020 matches which have been rescheduled for this June, rather than a primetime Saturday night offering.

Due to the tournament’s postponement last year following the coronavirus pandemic, the show was transformed at short notice to fill the void left by the football.

The programme was overshadowed by the furore surrounding presenter Maya’s ‘revealing’ outfits, which caused her to call out viewers for ‘hyper sexualising’ her figure.

A source told MailOnline: ‘The series deserves a second chance as it never ran how it was initially conceived.

‘The Euros is the essence of the show and without any football, producers faced an uphill battle from the start to make it work, especially with all the pressure it was under being aired on a Saturday night. 

‘Hopefully this summer viewers will be won over.’

The overhaul – expected to take place between June and July – is likely to feature a new name and the inclusion of a studio audience, which was heavily missed last year.  

Last November, in an exclusive interview with MailOnline, Maya branded the reaction to wearing low-cut dresses while making her prime-time debut as ‘ridiculous’.

She said: ‘I’ve always worn the same thing but when I was slimmer nobody commented on it and as soon as you have got a fuller figure people are shocked and insulted by your body, so I found it ridiculous. 

‘I’ve been wearing the same outfits, the same cut tops, my entire career and there was never really that many comments on it until I started putting on a bit of weight.

‘I was like “Gosh, if you’re shocked at boobs or even just a bit of cleavage on telly, I don’t know how people cope when they go to the swimming pool or the beach because there’s a lot more boobs on show there.”

‘It’s a woman’s body – I don’t feel like it should cause such outrage. I’m going to continue to dress how I’ve always dressed no matter what size I am.’
