The presenter, 31, had previously laughed off questions from fans about whether she was on a 'zero hours contract,' after they noted she hadn't been seen on the show since launch night on June 1.
Ahead of the episode, Maya also took to Instagram to show off her latest racy look, with a tongue-in-cheek caption poking fun at her lengthy absence as she joked: 'I heard you missed me...'
Maya's trip to Mallorca last week for Love Island was a brief one, as on Saturday she shared video of herself at Bad Bunny's star-studded concert in London's Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
The star headed straight to the gig from her private jet, telling her Instagram followers how she made a quick change in the car.
Maya later popped up in Bad Bunny's famous La Casita on stage.
Last week, the presenter vowed she would be back in the villa 'soon,' after fans noted she hadn't appeared on the show since launch night.
One viewer fumed on X: 'Decide between yourselves? What does that mean? WHERE IS MAYA JAMA!! Is she now on flexible working hours or is it a zero hours contract now???'

Maya hit back: 'I'll be back in there soon I promise. I have been dying to get back in there tbh [to be honest]'.
Other fans also noticed Maya's absence, writing: 'Is Maya allergic to the villa why haven’t we seen her in weeks? #loveisland #loveislandUK',
'It feels lazy and like they trying to save money. Not good at all',
'Maya Jama hasn’t visited the villa since the first episode of Love Island UK??',
'Maya Jama hasn’t even visited since she dropped them off and they’re locked off???? What the hell is going on? #loveisland', 'Where is Maya Jama #LoveIsland.'
"What I will never do is give up" – Kimmich rules out international retirement after Germany's World Cup exit

Germany captain Joshua Kimmich is not considering retiring from international football after Monday's heartbreaking World Cup exit to Paraguay.
"I'll always have the determination to make another attempt. What I will never do is give up," Kimmich told MagentaTV after the match.
AdvertisementAdvertisementThe 31-year-old, who was also part of the squads that crashed out in the group stage at the 2018 and 2022 World Cups, converted his penalty in the shootout. However, it wasn't enough to prevent another disappointing tournament exit.
"I grew up in Germany watching the national team on television, and it always seemed to be the semifinals or the final. Of course, you want to give today's children, the people, and this generation that same experience. The fact is, we weren't able to give the people back home that," Kimmich said.
According to Kimmich, everyone in the team must take full responsibility for the latest failure.
“It's a real shame, especially at a time when it would do us so much good to have something in Germany we can be proud of. Unfortunately, the national team isn't that right now, and we all share responsibility for it,” he said.
"We have to take responsibility – no one can distance themselves from it. We have to own it, because we, the players who were on the pitch, are the ones who messed it up."
Taylor Swift won over Kelce's skeptical friend in backstage encounter
Taylor Swift won over another new fan in Travis Kelce's friend Taylor Lewan, days before the American power couple are expected to get married at New York's Madison Square Garden.
Swift joined Kelce last week for his annual 'Tight End University' - an event he helps plan for practice and networking with players who play in the position where the Kansas City Chiefs star made his name.
Swift has sprinkled some stardust over the last two events with a brief performance at the concert they host each year and this time, ex-NFL man turned podcast host Lewan got to witness Swift preparing to perform backstage.
Speaking on his popular Bussin' With The Boys podcast, Lewan explained: 'I'll just tell you this, dude - I was kind of into her music when I was younger. I haven't been super into it since then. It is just not my genre.
'The girl is incredible. What a performer. We are sitting backstage for a moment and she's about to go out. She's got a cluster, she's got a gaggle of individuals with her. But she's in the back before she walks out and you can see her just getting in the zone.
'I remember just looking at her being like "it is so cool that somebody who is as successful as she is, as famous as she is, she just handles her business the correct way at all times".

Bussin' With The Boys host Taylor Lewan was impressed by Swift's performance last week
'And for her to sit back, get in the zone and go out and put on a performance, whether it was three minutes or five minutes, it was a very short amount of time, but the pop from the crowd... everybody in that moment felt like she was singing individually to them. And I thought that was just awesome.'
Swift joined Lainey Wilson on the stage to perform her hit 'Love Story' and dedicated it to Kelce's friend and rival tight end George Kittle, who plays for San Francisco 49ers.
'She probably misses ball!' Lewan joked about the lengthy NFL offseason. 'She misses ball a little bit, dude! But she was awesome. It was just really cool to watch people who are outliers in their craft perform.
'And I thought she is clearly that, the biggest superstar in the world. It is just awesome to see all that going down, all while our boy Trav is just bobbing around, stoked to kind of like be there.'
Swift and Kelce are expected to tie the knot this weekend in New York at the city's most iconic venue.
There were people in the industry who wondered if their plans to marry at MSG were a high-profile decoy but Daily Mail earlier this week shared pictures of equipment getting loaded into the venue, seemingly in preparation for the big day.
It remains to be seen if Lewan is going. He has known Kelce for around 10 years but the guestlist has been kept quiet and those attending have been sworn to secrecy.
And if, as Lewan suggested, Swift is missing football then she doesn't have too much longer to wait.
Kelce's Chiefs team start the season with a Monday Night Football showdown against AFC West rivals Denver Broncos on September 14 at Arrowhead Stadium.
