Danny Jones’ wife has reportedly moved out of their family home after his kiss with Maura Higgins.
The McFly star, 38, who has been married to Georgia Horsley since 2014, appeared to kiss Love Island star Maura, 34, at a Brits afterparty in early March, and the photos quickly went viral.
Singer-songwriter Danny later took to social media to issue an apology after the footage emerged, saying sorry to his wife and family for ‘putting them in this situation’.
However, reports have claimed that while the pair are working through things as they were pictured together for the first time, they are ‘not together’ at the moment.
Miss England beauty Georgia, with whom Danny shares son Cooper, is believed to have moved in with a pal in London as she processes recent events.
In photos published by The Sun, she was seen this weekend with best friend Rose Mahon, walking the streets and joking around with her phone.
A source said of her marriage: ‘They’re not together, and she is working out what she wants to do.’
It’s claimed Georgia moved out of the marital home before going to the pub with friends after telling Danny: ‘I need to get away.’
‘She has been hugely hurt and embarrassed by everything and told Danny she needed to get away,’ the insider added.
Georgia has allegedly been staying with Rose since Wednesday.
She and Danny are now ‘talking about how they can move forwards.’
The update comes after a source also claimed Georgia doesn’t want to ‘come across as a pushover’.
They explained to The Sun that the ‘whole situation has been incredibly embarrassing for Danny and Georgia.’
‘They are keen to work through things together and move on.
‘But Georgia does not want people to think she’s a pushover and that all is forgiven already,’ they added.
‘She was concerned that the photos of her and Danny together gave the impression that everything is fine when that is very much not the case.’
It comes after Danny spoke out over the incident in a statement shared with his Instagram followers.
‘Hello everyone, sorry I’ve taken some time out to be with those closest to me,’ the I’m A Celebrity winner began.
‘I want to deeply apologise to my wife and family for putting them in this situation.
‘I love them so much, and we’ll continue to deal with this privately.’
He then thanked his fans as he concluded: ‘I love you guys, thank you for your patience, understanding, and support.’
The pair spent the night together at the event, with onlookers then filming them appearing to lock lips around three in the morning.
Maura is single after her recent split from The Only Way is Essex and Strictly star Pete Wicks, but Danny has been married for over a decade.
Sources claimed at the time that the jungle campmates ‘seemed to be having a great time’ before sharing a ‘brief drunken kiss’.
‘Danny and Maura seem to have a close friendship after meeting in the jungle. They were talking and laughing for ages,’ a source told The Sun at the time.

Maura has yet to address the scandal, but sources informed Metro that the ordeal has hit her hard.
‘Maura doesn’t understand why she is bearing the brunt of the backlash. The social media comments have been relentless, and she’s been feeling incredibly low for the past week.
‘She wants to move on from the situation but is worried this might not die down any time soon, or at least until Danny speaks out. Maura is thinking about Georgia throughout all of this.’
Reps for Georgia Horsley have been contacted for comment.
