Olivia Attwood copies rival Maura Higgins’ and shows off her Birkin

Not content with parallel career paths and a shared love interest, Olivia Attwood and Maura Higgins also have the same taste in designer bags.

Olivia, 35, debuted her latest arm candy on Wednesday, revealing she was taking her new £17,000 bag out for the first time.

Snapping photos with the burgundy Hermès Togo Birkin 30 with gold hardware, Olivia told her Instagram followers: ‘I got this baby in Paris in Jan and today is her first day out,’ before adding: ‘Taking her on an adventure.’

Maura, 35, has already been showing off her own burgundy Birkin for weeks, after receiving it as a gift from her Traitors US co-star Rob Rausch in March. 

Rob officially made amends with Maura after betraying her during the show by buying her her dream bag, and she has been attached to the envy-inducing accessory ever since. 

Love Island stars Olivia and Maura have been locked in a feud for years over claims Maura has been trying to ‘copy’ Olivia’s career.

While there have undoubtedly been similarities in their career projections, when it comes to the pair’s plans to crack America, currently Maura is coming out on top after signing up to Dancing With the Stars following her huge success on Traitors.  

In February it was claimed that Olivia and Maura’s rivalry had hit boiling point over their toxic whispers and Pete Wicks connection. 

The rift first came to light in 2024 during Maura’s stint in the I’m A Celeb jungle.

Sources revealed that Maura was seen as trying to follow a ‘similar script’ to boost her appeal, mirroring Olivia’s path after she signed up for Love Island in 2017 following her split from Bradley Dack after he was unfaithful. 

The tension between the two further escalated when they were both signed to the same PR agency, Dundas Communications. 

The dynamic became awkward as they were lined up for similar jobs, prompting Olivia, who had worked with the agency first, to move on. 

In a surprising turn, ten months after Olivia joined a new public relations agency, Align, which specialises in growing careers in America, Maura then followed suit, signing with the same company.

After splitting from TOWIE star Pete Wicks last year, Maura delivered a savage dig to him on Valentine’s Day.

Asked where he was as she left a swanky restaurant, she quipped: ‘Dunno, probably cheating.’ After he denied he had been unfaithful.

Olivia and Pete were first seen kissing in March after years of being close friends.
