MAURA Higgins has belted out a Whitney Houston anthem about broken hearts following her split from Pete Wicks.

The Irish beauty, 34, watched the Queen of the Night tribute concert in London on Saturday night and enjoyed some of the late singer's biggest hits.

Among them were heartbreak anthems I Will Always Love You and Where Do Broken Hearts Go.

She could be heard singing along to the latter as she filmed the big-voiced impersonator on stage.

The night out followed Maura's stinging Valentine’s Day jibe at ex Pete.

We exclusively revealed how she was asked where Pete, 37, was as she left a restaurant and replied: "Dunno, probably cheating."

In another thinly veiled nod to her love life troubles, Maura sent herself flowers on Valentine’s Day with a note that read: “To Me, Love Me.”

Meanwhile, glum-looking Pete was pictured with his mum in Essex. He wore a baseball cap bearing the cryptic words “smoke and mirrors”.

Maura and Strictly hunk Pete were in a relationship for months after knowing each other for six years. But it was revealed on Friday that they had split despite a romantic Christmas break in Ireland.

The evening after the news broke, the model slipped into a red mini-dress with rose motifs for a meal with her hairstylist pal Carl Bembridge at a restaurant in London’s Mayfair.

Neither Maura nor Pete have publicly commented about their separation but it was claimed they had a series of arguments.

A source told The Sun on Sunday: “Maura was suspicious of Pete and whether he might have been messing her around. There have been some rows over trust.

“Although they have both been coy about their relationship, she really liked him and saw a future.”

Maura told a podcast she “adored him”, while former Towie star Pete called her “super intelligent” and “incredibly witty”.

They had been caught sharing a kiss during a Soho dinner in August and in October they were spotted in another clinch after a date in Shoreditch, East London.

They were snogging again later that month at the Pride of Britain awards after-party at Grosvenor House Hotel in Park Lane.

They never made their romance official and were apart in November and December while Maura was on ITV’s I’m A Celeb.

Confiding to jungle campmate GK Barry, she said: “Well, we’ve already been papped, tongues down each other’s necks, and we had no idea. The funniest part was I had a vape in one hand and a cigarette in the other, living my best life.”
