Exclusive: ‘I attended BRITs Afterparty with Maura Higgins and Danny Jones – what I saw before kiss shocked me’

Maura Higgins and Danny Jones were looking very cosy at the BRITs after party after spending hours sitting in a booth together, before reportedly sharing a kiss.

Maura Higgins and Danny Jones spent the BRITs Universal afterparty looking very cosy for several hours before their kiss at the bash, Mirror can reveal. The I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! co-stars were seen seemingly sharing a short kiss in a clip from the party, which was held at 180 Studios on The Strand. Footage obtained by The Sun appears to show 38-year-old Danny – who has been married to Georgia Horsley since 2014 – kissing Maura, 34, on the lips while they engaged in conversation.

When we walked into the afterparty, Maura’s former flame Pete Wicks was on his way out – making an early exit with pal Olivia Attwood as they seemed to be getting an early night. But Maura was only just beginning her night as she sat down in a booth table with Danny, another female friend and Oti Mabuse, who was coming and going from the table.

Maura and Danny were sitting in the booth together for most of the night, they were laughing and chatting and seemed really cosy for hours. Some other people gathered around the table to chat but they didn’t really move from that spot and weren’t dancing much, they were clearly comfortable. Danny occasionally walked the room with Tom Fletcher, but he kept coming back to Maura.

Maura went to the after party after spending the night at the BRITs ceremony, where she was sat at the same table as Jamie Laing and Sophie Habboo. There was only one table in between Maura and Pete, but the pair didn’t go near one another. While Danny was a few tables away with McFly bandmate Tom.

As the clip of Maura and Danny seemingly sharing a kiss was shared, a source told The Sun that they “seem to have a close friendship” after meeting on ITV ‘s I’m A Celebrity last year – which Danny won – and were “talking and laughing for ages”. A source also told the outlet that he appeared to be giving Maura advice and put his arm around her shoulder at one point. They added that she also laid her head on his shoulder as they talked with pals.

Danny has been married to Georgia since 2014, and the couple share a seven-year-old son, Cooper. Mirror has reached out to Danny and Maura’s reps for comment.
