Maura Higgins jets to Paris as Danny Jones issues apology over their ‘drunken kiss’ while her ex Pete Wicks enjoys night out with Becca Edwards

Maura Higgins brushed off the recent drama and jetted to Paris on Saturday after her ‘drunken kiss’ with married Danny Jones sparked controversy. 

As the McFly singer, 39, issued an apology to his wife Georgia Horsley, the Love Island star, 34, enjoyed lunch in the French capital.   

Meanwhile in London, Maura’s ex Pete Wicks enjoyed a night out with Ex On The Beach star Becca Edwards. 

Danny hit the headlines after spending the evening with Maura at Universal Music’s BRIT Awards afterparty, where they were spotted in a compromising clinch.

He has since released a statement apologising to his wife Georgia for ‘putting her in the situation’.

Maura has yet to address the scandal and was shared a series of pH๏τos to her Instagram Story after arriving in Paris.

Elsewhere, Pete, who said he ‘couldn’t care less’ about the drama, went out for dinner with Becca, 32, to Amazonico restaurant after returning from Dubai. 

The former TOWIE star wore a black leather jacket with a plain T-shirt, jeans and smart Chelsea boots for his evening out. 

Becca followed closely behind in a cropped bra top which she teamed with high-waisted H๏τ pants and тιԍнтs. 

Pete is said to have ‘moved on’ from his ex Maura after they went their separate ways in February. 

He had already booked to go on a lavish 5 star holiday in Dubai meaning he was able to escape the drama.

A source told MailOnline: ‘Pete has moved on and couldn’t care less about Maura. He feels indifferent about the drama currently surrounding her.

‘He is focusing on himself and enjoying a break in the sun before getting back into work.’

Pete stayed at The Lana H๏τel, the Dorchester Collection’s first H๏τel in the Middle East, with rooms starting at £730 per night.

In the wake of the scandal, both Maura and Danny have been hit by a wave of criticism, with many furious on behalf of Georgia, Danny’s wife of 10 years and mother of his son.

Two days after making a cringeworthy return to social media, Danny released a statement on Friday apologising to his wife Georgia for ‘putting her in the situation’. 

On Instagram, two weeks after the incident took place, Danny said: ‘Hello everyone. Sorry its taken me a while to post this but I’ve taken some time out to be with those closest to me.

‘I want to deeply apologise to my wife and family for putting them in this situation. I love then so much and we’ll continue to deal with this privately.

‘I love you guys, thank you for you patience, understanding, and support. See you all soon, Danny.’

While Danny was sharing his social media statement, Maura threw herself into work amid the ongoing drama. 

Pete seemingly took a swipe at his former flame Maura as he joked about the ‘awful lot that happened at the BRITs’ during his latest podcast episode.

Hinting at the ongoing drama on his Staying Relevant podcast with Sam Thompson , Pete put on a shocked face as he joked: ‘So… a LOT happened at the BRITs, an awful lot happened at the BRITs. I am probably gonna leave that there because…

‘A lot happened at the BRITs but we’re just gonna move on from that and we’ll tell you about our BRIT’s experience.’

Sam laughed as he smugly added: ‘Our BRITs was great. We had a lovely BRITs experience.’

Before Pete chimed in with: ‘Nothing happened there… for us. But we had a great time, Universal afterparty, we stayed there for a little beer, had a few drinks.’

Former Made In Chelsea star Sam, 32, went on the joke that they ‘did it right,’ before Pete put his head in his hands and quipped: ‘No, no, no, it’s not that other people did it wrong.’

Sam then clarified: ‘What I mean is at these parties you don’t want to linger for too long. We got there nice and early, we left the BRITs a little bit early, got there before the crush happens.

‘Had a few drinks, had a really good time, spoke to loads of people and then left at about 1am, which is the perfect time to bounce before everything gets a little bit messy.’
