5pm: Separate BRIT Awards red carpet appearances 

Danny Jones and Maura Higgins made headlines with their ‘drunken kiss’ at the BRIT Awards afterparty as they were filmed locking lips.

The former I’m A Celebrity co-stars became embroiled in a shock scandal when they were caught on camera sharing a kiss outside the BRITs Universal Music afterparty.

A second bombshell video then emerged which claimed to show the pair drinking wine together until 6am at a Sony party at the Nobu H๏τel in Marylebone.

Danny and his wife Georgia Jones, both 38, are reportedly fighting to save their marriage amid fears that a third video could leak of the night.

Neither parties have broken their silence on the footage, with Georgia cancelling a public Q&A at her best friend Kelsey Parker’s Baby Show in London on Saturday.

Here, MailOnline pieces together the full timeline of the wild BRITs night out that caused the scandal.

5pm: Separate BRIT Awards red carpet appearances 

The night got off to an uncontroversial start as former Love Island star Maura, 34, took to the red carpet solo shortly after her split from Pete Wicks.

She made sure to turn heads in a completely sheer black gown with an array of vibrant floral embellishments which hugged her incredible figure.

Maura arrived on the red carpet at around 5pm while Danny posed for official pH๏τographs at the event shortly after with his McFly bandmate Tom Fletcher.

Danny cut a suave figure in a white shirt and black trousers, which he styled with a brown jacket, as he took to the red carpet with Tom, 39.

Danny’s wife Georgia was not present at the ceremony while Maura risked an awkward run in with her ex, TOWIE star Pete, 37, who was in attendance.

Arriving separately, Danny and Maura then headed in to enjoy their separate nights out at the star-studded BRIT Awards.

The pair sat at different tables during the actual ceremony, which was held at the O2 Arena and saw the likes of Sabrina Carpenter and Teddy Swims performed.

2am: Looking cosy at the BRITs afterparty 

After enjoying the glitz and glamour of the BRIT Awards, both Danny and Maura then rubbed shoulders at the Universal Music BRITs afterparty.

With many different parties being hosted by various brands, they both descended on 180 House in Soho to continue their nights of celebrations.

And it was at the party that Danny and Maura were spotted spending time together, looking cosy in a booth with a group of friends.

PH๏τographs taken at the bash in the early hours of the morning showed the pair grinning from ear-to-ear as they sat beside each other in the VIP area.

Maura was just kick-starting her night as she sipped on a glᴀss of champagne while sat with Danny and another female.

Maura and Danny remained in the booth together for most of the night laughing and chatting away before I’m A Celeb co-star Oti Mabuse joined them for a catch up and to pose for a pH๏τo.

The trio seemed happier than ever as Maura rested her head on Danny’s shoulder while a pal snapped a picture of them.

Oti later circled the room, leaving Maura and Danny to put on a cosy display whispering between themselves. 

The McFly singer later walked the room briefly with bandmate Tom Fletcher, but returned back to where Maura was sat. 

Around 2:30am, other friends and people gathered around the booth, which didn’t seem to bother the pair who seemed very comfortable together.  

Also at the afterparty was Maura’s former flame Pete, but he didn’t stay long and made a swift exit alongside his friend and podcast co-host Olivia Attwood, who is married to Bradley Dack.

Pete seemed happier than ever as he told a MailOnline reporter he was getting an early night as he and Olivia had their first KISS Radio show the next morning.

2.50am: ‘Drunken kiss’ on The Strand

Video footage obtained by The Sun then showed the pair standing close together in the venue’s foyer as they put on a cosy display.

In the video, reportedly taken just before 3am, the pair are seen leaning in to chat to one another before Danny appears to kiss Maura quickly.

An onlooker told the publication of the interaction: ‘Danny and Maura seemed to be having a great time. They looked like they had 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.’

‘Danny appeared to be giving Maura advice and at one point he put his arm around her shoulder,’ a source added of the night. 

3am: Leaving the afterparty at 180 House

Just moments after the kiss, Maura and Danny were both pictured leaving the venue together as part of a larger group including Danny’s bandmate Tom.

PH๏τographs showed the pair smiling widely as they stepped out from the star-studded afterparty alongside one another.

Maura put on a leggy display in her plunging black blazer and frilled skirt look after she changed out of her red carpet look before partying the night away.

Danny wore the same dapper ensemble as he rocked at the awards ceremony and walked with his hands in his pockets while Maura stood alongside him. 

Maura then got into a taxi by herself while Danny – who shares a son Cooper, seven, with his wife of more than 10 years Georgia – headed off with the rest of his group. 

In a video, reportedly taken at 3am, Danny and Maura were seen sharing a quick peck, and just moments later, they were pictured leaving the party as part of a larger group (pictured)

4am-6am: ‘Knocking back wine’ at the Sony party 

But their night didn’t stop at the Universal afterparty as they reportedly headed on to the Sony bash at Marylebone’s Nobu H๏τel afterwards.

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’.

After heading their in separate taxis, it has been claimed that they ‘knocked back wine until 6am’ as they continued to party the night away together. 

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 made the most of the party.

Video footage allegedly showed the pair at the Sony party together, and that is believed to be their last sighting together, bringing to an end the infamous night.

A source has since claimed Danny and Maura regret their behaviour and have insisted the ‘kiss’ was ‘innocent’, though neither parties have yet broken their silence.
