The Love Island host, 30, and Manchester City ace Rúben, 27, have been dating since the end of last year.
Maya Jama's romance with footballer Ruben Dias is getting serious after he introduced her to his mum Bernadette
Maya posted snaps of her and pals after watching City's 2-2 draw with Brighton
A source said: "Maya and Rúben are getting more serious and she has met his mum Bernadette.
"She is very happy and in a great place in her personal life and her career. It's shaping up to be a very exciting year for Maya."
The presenter was in Lisbon last month to watch Rúben in action for Portugal in their 5-2 win over Denmark in their Nations League quarter-final second-leg.
She was in a hospitality box with a pal at the José Alvalade Stadium.
Maya also shared snaps from Rúben's luxury villa during her stay before returning to London where she was seen in the crowd watching Usher at London's O2 Arena this weekend.
The couple got together after being introduced at the MTV EMAs in Manchester in November, following the breakdown of Maya's on-off relationship with rapper Stormzy last summer.
At last month's Brit Awards, it was also revealed Maya has started taking Portuguese lessons.
She captioned an Instagram post: "Lessons have started," as a man believed to be Rúben spoke Portuguese in the background.
Weeks later, Maya posted snaps of her and pals after watching City's 2-2 draw with Brighton.
And speaking about her take on relationships last week, Maya said: "I'm such a lover but I am a big leaver as well.
"I know what makes me happy and I know what I like — and this is no disrespect to anyone I've been in a relationship with, but if it's not that then I will leave it.
"I only want you if you are going to add to that or make it better, otherwise I am not really on it."
Bernadette is a proud supporter of Rúben's career.
After he signed for City in 2020, she told The Sun he started playing football in their home in Portugal with his brother Ivan, who is also a professional footballer.
She said: "The first time Rúben and Ivan used to kick a ball around was at home and their first stadium was the corridor in the flat."
