Melvin Odoom who appeared on I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here! alongside Danny Jones and Maura Higgins appeared on Good Morning Britain and addressed their kiss

Danny Jones and Maura Higgins’ I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! co-star has spoken out on their drunken kiss. Melvin Odoom appeared on Good Morning Britain on Monday and revealed that the cast of the ITV jungle show are in a group WhatsApp chat with one another, which has been active in recent days.

It comes after reports Danny’s wife Georgia, who is said to he ‘humiliated’ by his behaviour, has moved out of the family home. The BRIT Awards kiss also appears to have caused strong feelings among Danny’s formerly close I’m A Celeb pals – with some of them choosing not to publicly wish him a happy birthday last week.

Following the furore, Radio 1 star Melvin appeared on GMB with the hosts not wasting time to ask him his verdict. When asked about Danny and Maura’s kiss after the BRIT Awards, Melvin said cooly: “It’s none of my business.” He revealed that everybody “got on” in the jungle and their WhatsApp had been used to wish Danny a happy birthday last week.

“The thing is, we’ve all got a WhatsApp group, we all got on in the jungle,” Melvin said, before adding: “The other day, it was Danny’s birthday, we all wished him a happy birthday. In regards to this story, it’s none of my business. That’s all I’m saying on it. I got on with everyone and they were all really lovely, I wish them all the best.”

“Definitely,” Melvin said when host Susanna Reid commented that she hopes Danny and his wife Georgia can work through the issues. But Melvin was left gobsmacked on the show as he stood in for Richard Arnold on the show. “First of all, you guys don’t hold back,” he said before adding: “Just straight in with the hard stories.”

Danny, 38, was all smiles as he and the 34-year-old Love Island star Maura attended the Universal Music party and were spotted locking lips with one another in direct view of other party goers. Sources at the time claimed the pair were “having a great time” and had struck up a close friendship after meeting in the Australian jungle.

It was reported that they later headed to another after party and were said to be sat downing wine with one another until 6am before leaving the party together. Now, two weeks later, it’s claimed that Danny’s wife Georgia has “moved out” of their family home and told those closest to her that she won’t be a “pushover.”

“Danny and Georgia may still be married but they’re not together and she is working out what she wants to do,” a source told The Sun. They went on to add: “She has been hugely hurt and embarrassed by everything and told Danny she needed to get away. She has been staying with her friend Rose since Wednesday.

Last week, Danny issued a short but grovelling apology to his wife and family via his Instagram Stories. He said: “Hello everyone, sorry it’s 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 them so much and we’ll continue to deal with this privately.

“I love you guys, thank you for your patience, understanding, and support. See you all soon, Danny.” Sources close to the McFly star say he has been left “mortified” by the scandal.
