Danny Jones' Instagram has been hi-jacked by fans after he reportedly shared a kiss with Maura Higgins a the BRIT Awards afterparty.
McFly singer Danny, 38, and former Love Island star Maura, 34 - who formed a friendship during their time in the jungle last year - both attended the BRIT Awards at the O2 Arena in London on Saturday night. Later in the evening, they were spotted leaving an afterparty together.
The pair were among a star-studded crowd at the event, which also included Sam Thompson, Pete Wicks, Olivia Attwood, Calum Scott, and Oti Mabuse. While Danny arrived at the awards alongside his McFly bandmate Tom Fletcher, he was the only member of the group to attend the exclusive afterparty, where he and Maura appeared to be particularly close.
According to reports, the two shared a "drunken kiss" while attending the Universal Music afterparty at 180 Studios on the Strand. Footage obtained by The Sun appears to show Danny - who has been married to Georgia Horsley since 2014 - kissing Maura on the lips while they engaged in conversation. A source claimed they "seemed to be having a great time" and described the kiss as a "brief, drunken moment."
Having bonded on I'm A Celebrity last year - where Danny was crowned the winner -the pair are said to share a close friendship. They were reportedly seen chatting and laughing for a significant amount of time at the event, with a source suggesting that Danny was offering Maura advice. At one point, he put his arm around her shoulder, and she rested her head against him while talking with friends.
On Saturday night, Danny took to Instagram to post a photo from the BRITs as he posed up alongside YouTube and Britain's Got Talent star, KSI and his McFly bandmate Tom, 39. Danny captioned the post: "The collab you neeeeeeeed." However, fans have now taken to the comments to slam the singer following the reports of his BRIT Awards kiss with Maura.
One commented: "Then he went and cheated on his wife." Another echoed: "Wtf Danny. You are married with a child. Fans are meant to respect you but how can they when you don't even respect yourself." Someone else added: "Oh Danny you had it all man." Another fan defended Danny, as they wrote: "Omg EVERYONE NEEDS TO STOP! These are people lives. Leave them alone."
Someone else agreed, as they penned: "If you have come here commenting in the most negative way, when we don’t know all the facts shame on you, for trying to bring somebody down." While another quipped: "The Brits is the most unpredictable night of the year."
