Danny Jones has been captured ‘kissing’ his former I’m A Celebrity campmate Maura Higgins.

The McFly musician, 38, who has been married to wife Georgia Horsley since 2014, appeared to kiss Love Island star Maura, 34, over the weekend when they were attending Universal Music’s Brit Awards after-party.

The pair spent the night together at the bash, with onlookers then filming them appearing to lock lips around 3am.

Sources said Danny and Maura, who is single after her recent split from The Only Way is Essex and Strictly star Pete Wicks, ‘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, who also published videos of the apparent kiss.

The publication reported Danny had been with his McFly bandmate Tom Fletcher before Maura walked over, with the pair spending about 90 minutes together.

One said he ‘appeared to be giving her advice and at one point put his arm around her shoulder’, while Maura was also reported to have ‘laid her head on Danny’s shoulder as they talked with friends’.

After sitting down at a table together and chatting with their campmate Oti Mabuse, they walked into the foyer together around 3am – which is when they were filmed appearing to kiss.

Soon after they left the party, each later being seen at the Sony after party at the Nobu Hotel where they were ‘still grinning and joking about’.

‘Inside the party, it appeared to be just the two of them. The night was winding down as it was so early in the morning and a lot had gone home,’ the source also said.

Danny has been married to former Miss England Georgia for over a decade, with the pair sharing son Cooper, 5.

Meanwhile after months of rumours Maura was dating Pete, it was recently reported they decided to ‘remain friends’.  

‘There have been a few clashes, and it was eventually agreed they were better off as friends,’ a source told MailOnline.

‘Those closest to them know it’s been a very on and off relationship, which is why they were so resistant to go public in the first place. They remain close and share a deep connection.’

Metro has contacted representatives for Danny Jones and Maura Higgins for comment.
