series of I'm A Celebrity and is a mentor on The Voice, is expected to skip the showbiz ceremony. Meanwhile, Love Island star Maura, 34, is reportedly expected to use the event as her

drunken kiss with single Maura at an afterparty for the BRIT Awards in March. READ MORE: Amazon beats Samsung with £211 discount on The Frame smart TV He later shared a public apology while

Maura stayed silent on the drama. Now, it's been reported Danny has decided to swerve today's BAFTA TV awards while Maura is preparing to make the event her big red carpet

comeback. A source has claimed to The Sun that while Maura is expected to attend with her 'head held high', Danny "won’t be attending though as he is focusing on his family

life and work. "He wouldn’t do anything to make wife Georgia doubt him and doesn’t want to set a foot a wrong." Mirror Online has reached out to Danny's representatives for

comment. Meanwhile, it's been claimed Maura won't answer any questions about the kiss. Following the scandal at the beginning of March, which saw Danny and Maura lock lips at a

BRIT Awards after party before heading to another after party where it was claimed they stayed up partying until 6am, Danny's wife Georgia, 38, went to stay with a friend. Following the

release of the shock video of Danny and Maura's drunken kiss, it has been claimed Georgia had 'moved out' of the family home but those close to the star told us she wanted to

“decompress” after a highly stressful few days, and was always coming home. “This wasn’t some grand gesture where she suddenly packed her bags and left," a source told us. "It was

just a girlie few nights at a close pal’s flat. Yes, she wanted some space, but she is home now, and while things are still fragile, they are trying to work things through." Later in

March, she returned to her family home. Meanwhile, Danny issued a public statement to apologise for his actions. In a statement, the McFly singer 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." Meanwhile,

Maura has continued to remain silent on the matter – after jetting to the US in the wake of the kiss scandal. Article continues below _LIKE THIS STORY? FOR MORE OF THE LATEST SHOWBIZ NEWS
