THE Traitors star Maia Gouveia splashed out on a company credit card months after being sacked, according to reports.
The 25-year-old spent three months as the manager of gifting company Bubblegum Stuff last year before being sacked for allegedly failing to show up.

The single mum went on holiday to Trinidad without telling company boss and Apprentice 2016 runner-up Courtney Wood, 38.
Six months later the company noticed transactions made on the card through Maia’s Apple Pay account and alerted the police.
A source told the Mail: “Maia is deeply regretful for the mistakes she made during her employment with Bubblegum Stuff and her actions afterwards.
“She was going through a tough time as a new mother and wishes she behaved differently.

“Maia’s father visited the Bubblegum Stuff offices to make amends after the credit incident was exposed while Courtney decided against taking the matter any further.”
In September Maia explained on TikTok that she has a lot of debt after giving birth to her daughter.
She referenced a viral trend that saw creators ask their followers to watch their video for a minimum of five seconds.
After this, the viewer is required to engage with the content in some sort of way.
This could involve liking, sharing, or commenting on the clip.
The TikTok creator rewards programme would then reward the poster per qualified view.
This system meant that the creator could potentially pay off their debts if they received enough qualified views.
Maia went on to land a place on hit BBC reality show The Traitors along with her sister Armani, 28.
On Friday, Armani, who was a Traitor, was eliminated from the show in a tense round table that saw her Faithful sister help to condemn her.
Swaying her fellow contestants, Maia admitted she was only 60 percent sure Armani was Faithful after noticing changes to her personality in the Scottish estate.
It was enough for the other competitors who decided correctly outed her as a show villain.
