The Midlands celebrity was accosted outside an awards ceremony last night.
Maura Higgins is being commended for speaking out, after being grabbed by a stranger at an event in London.
A bystander took hold of the Ballymahon model's arm and tried to pull her towards his car, while being photographed after the National Television Awards.
The former Love Island star has branded the behaviour as "predatory" and says it's so commonplace she never leaves venues alone at night.
Anne Clarke from Offaly Domestic Violence Support Service hopes Maura's warning will help raise awareness:
