Maura Higgins finally broke her social media silence on Sunday after kissing married McFly star Danny Jones at the BRIT Awards last weekend.

The Love Island star, 34, and the singer, 38, hit the headlines after spending the evening at Universal Music’s party at 180 House last Saturday, where they were spotted in a compromising clinch.

And now almost a week later, she has finally returned to posting on her Instagram which has been completely silent since the scandal broke.

She took to her Story to share that she was escaping all the drama with a work trip to Los Angeles.

Sharing a snap of her in a first class plane seat, she penned in the caption: ‘Exciting shoot’, while a glᴀss of champagne was seen nearby.

It comes after Maura and Danny reportedly stayed up until 6am drinking wine after their ‘drunken kiss’ at a BRIT Awards afterparty.

It was claimed the pair then headed in separate taxis to a Sony party at Nobu H๏τel in Marylebone, where they allegedly ‘knocked back wine until 6am’.

An onlooker told The Sun: ‘Danny and Maura seemed to be enjoying their night of partying and had no plans to call it a night.

‘They were knocking back wine at the Nobu from 4am and seemed keen to carry on. They weren’t seen leaving before 6am.’ 

The publication also claimed that Maura and Danny were seen ‘chatting intimately and laughing’ as they continued the party.

MailOnline has contacted Maura and Danny’s representatives for comment.   

Reports of Danny’s ‘drunken kiss’ with Maura has reportedly been a ‘slap in the face’ for his wife of over 10 years, Georgia Horsley.

In the wake of the scandal, Georgia has apparently made a pledge about her marriage and her future with the rocker.

A source told The Mirror: ‘She’s been an incredible partner to him so this feels very unfair. But Georgia is a strong woman, she won’t let it ruin what they have.’

The source went on to reveal that Danny and Maura regret their behaviour and have insisted that the ‘kiss’ was ‘innocent’.

They said: ‘Danny and Maura insist it was totally innocent and nothing meaningful. 

‘They got on really well in the jungle and it’s just foolish that they let themselves get caught up in something after a big party night, especially so publicly.’

Danny and his wife Georgia, a former Miss World, married in 2014 after meeting in 2009 at a Miss London event and share seven-year old son Cooper together.

Meanwhile, Danny liked a Sєxy Instagram picture of Maura before their ‘drunken kiss’ at the BRIT Awards – as it’s revealed the I’m A Celebs co-stars ‘kept in touch’ after their jungle stint. 

The former Love Island star and McFly singer became friends after starring in the most recent series of I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here! and stayed connected on Instagram since the show ended last December.

Danny has even publicly shown his admiration for Maura by liking one of her Sєxy posts, which was shared in January, and pictured the influencer dressed in a black bra and leopard print dress. 

The image, captioned ‘Ravenous’ by the influencer, showed Maura flaunting her slim frame in the figure-hugging outfit, posing with her arm outstretched across a wooden table. 

Neither Georgia nor Danny have spoken in public since the ‘kiss’, with Georgia even cancelling a planned appearance at The Baby Show this weekend.

Georgia’s podcast co-host Kelsey Parker was forced to cancel a public Q&A at the Baby Show in London on Saturday after Georgia pulled out of the event all together.

Georgia, who co-hosts the podcast Mum’s The Word with best friend Kelsey, cancelled her appearance in the aftermath of her husband Danny Jones’ ‘drunken kiss’.

As Kelsey attended the event alone, a source revealed to MailOnline that the talk finished 15 minutes early and saw the star avoid the Q&A part of the event. 

Confirming Georgia’s absence, an insider added: ‘Sitting down for a Q&A in front of a live audience is not what Georgia needs right now. She is mortified at how this has all played out and can’t help but feel humiliated.’
