This Morning fans have been quick to point out how today’s phone-in on the show related to Danny Jones’ kiss with Maura Higgins, with presenter Cat Deeley referring to the scandal
This Morning viewers have taken to social media to highlight how today’s phone-in was secretly a reference to Danny Jones and Maura Higgins’ recent kiss scandal.
Today’s show saw hosts Ben Shephard and Cat Deeley invite viewers to call in to give their thoughts on whether a drunken kiss counts as cheating, with Cat noting that the topic had been “in the headlines” a lot recently.
“Now here’s a question for you – does a drunken kiss on a night out count as cheating on a partner?” Ben told the camera. Cat added: “Lots of headlines in the news about this right now but are you grappling with the issue in your own relationship? If you are, Dr. Linda is here to help.”

As for who should ring in, therapist Dr. Linda Papadopoulos said: “Today I want to hear from anyone who is on either side of this issue. Maybe you suspect your partner of cheating, maybe you found out that they’re cheating and you’re being pressured to leave them and you actually feel it’s something that you can work through
“Maybe you have done the cheating and you want to come clean. Whatever the case is, I know this is a complex area but it’s one that’s underdiscussed so please give us a call and we’ll speak about it and hopefully get you some good advice on how to cope.”
Viewers were quick to point out how This Morning appeared to be referencing the scandal surrounding Danny Jones’ kiss with Maura Higgins, which was caught on camera at a BRITs afterparty earlier this month.

“Love how This Morning are talking about Danny Jones and Maura Higgins, without mentioning their names about that ‘drunken kiss’,” one viewer wrote. Another said: “I’m expecting Danny Jones to call in to this phone in @thismorning #ThisMorning.
Danny, who is married to Georgia Horsley, made his first TV appearance last week following the scandal in a pre-recorded episode of The One Show. The McFly singer appeared alongside bandmate Tom Fletcher to announce one of the winners of the show’s 500 Words competition.
Meanwhile, a source recently told The Mirror that Danny needs to address his kiss with Maura after keeping his head down over the past few weeks. Another video had emerged of the pair enjoying a wild night of drinking at swanky Nobu Hotel in London until 6am.
