Maya Jama has posted an adorable tribute to her boyfriend after the rapper stormed to two victories at last night’s BRIT Awards.

Stormzy – real name Michael Omari - picked up gongs for MasterCard Album of the Year and British Solo Male on Wednesday night

The 24-year-old was also bestowed the honour of closing the lavish ceremony and used his performance to deliver a political message.

On Thursday, presenter Jama posted a touching message to her boyfriend on Instagram, along with a photo of him holding his two awards.

The 23-year-old wrote: “Proud is an understatement! You put everything into the album and work harder and are more passionate about what you do then anyone I know.

“You are inspiring on so many levels and everyone around you is blessed to have you, you deserve everything that comes your way.

“You are changing history and it is such a pleasure to witness you grow into the most incredible human.”

She concluded her sweet snap with the words: “The actual best.”

​Jama also shared the photo of Stormzy - whom she has been dating for three years - on Twitter with the same three words and a crown emoji.

The television star, who stunned on the carpet in a glittery pink coat dress, hosted a Facebook live coverage event of the BRITs arrivals alongside Professor Green.
