The singer's fans have taken to social media to quiz him over the reports

McFly star Danny Jones has faced the wrath of fans after the married singer seemingly shared a kiss with his ITV I'm A Celebrity co-star, Maura Higgins.

The moment reportedly came at the Brit Awards afterparty over the weekend, with the two having formed a friendship after taking part in last year's series of the reality show, which Jones went on to win.


The 38-year-old allegedly shared a kiss with former Love Island star Higgins, 34, as they attended the afterparty for the London-based awards.

The two were also spotted leaving the afterparty together, sources claim.

One onlooker recalled: "Danny and Maura seemed to be having a great time. They looked like they had 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," they continued, The Sun reports.

It's understood the pair sat at different tables during the Brits ceremony, with Jones initially spending his evening with McFly bandmate Tom Fletcher before Higgins walked over.

Onlookers also said the duo spent 90 minutes together, with one adding: "Danny appeared to be giving Maura advice and at one point he put his arm around her shoulder."

At around 3am, Jones and Higgins apparently walked into a foyer together, where onlookers filmed them appearing to share a kiss.

One witness told the publication: "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."

Jones has been married to Georgia Horsley since 2014, and the two share a six-year-old son, Cooper Alf Jones.

While neither party have commented on the reports, Jones' fans have taken to his social media accounts to slam his alleged actions.

In the comment section of his Instagram snaps, one wrote: "Oh danny you had it all man."

"Here before the comments get turned off or limited!" another shared.

"Oh Danny, why?" another wrote alongside a broken heart emoji.

Someone else echoed this, asking: "Why??????????????????????????"

"Danny, Danny, Danny," someone else shared, along with face palm emojis.

Others defended the musician, with one writing: "Omg EVERYONE NEEDS TO STOP! these are people lives. Leave them alone!"

"Not here to defend him but if he was really drunk he probably regrets this, and he is having a low self esteem and disgust himself.. Nobody's perfect and everybody makes mistake.. He is human," another penned. (sic)
