Danny Jones' wife Georgia breaks down in tears and admits 'I felt like a failure' as she makes emotional first TV appearance since his drunken kiss with Maura Higgins
The 38-year-old - who shares a son called Cooper with her husband Danny, 38 - appeared on This Morning to talk to hosts Cat Deeley, 48, and Ben Shephard, 50, about post-natal depression.
The couple - who tied the knot in 2014 - welcomed their son into the world 2018.
Georgia spoke to some professionals about the matter, as well as some other mothers who have suffered with the same as her.
Talking about her experience, she bravely said: 'I felt like I was failing. At being a mum. I thought hopefully I'll do better today and then I didn't... I thought, what's wrong with me.
'What Danny found hard was that he couldn't fix it, he didn't know how to solve the problem.

'I went to therapy and it's the best thing I've ever done.
'I lost my sparkle, I'd look back at old pictures of myself and think 'she wasn't there.'
'If I'd had support maybe I wouldn't have spent 18 months not being me.'
It is Georgia's first appearance on television since husband Danny, 38, was seen kissing his former I'm A Celeb co-star and Love Island favourite Maura, 34, at the annual showbiz bash in February.
It comes a day after Georgia posted her first picture of Danny as part of a Father's Day tribute on Instagram on Sunday - following his drunken kiss with Maura.
The couple weathered a rough patch following Danny's drunken snog with Love Island star Maura at the BRITs afterparty in February.
The podcaster, 38, who has kept quiet throughout the scandal, posted a picture of her father and one of Danny to celebrate the special day.
Georgia, who shares son Cooper, seven, with Danny captioned the post: 'For the Dads Happy Father's Day'.
It has been over two months since Danny and Georgia have been pictured together in public after they seemingly put on a 'united front' and decided to remain in their 10-year relationship.
At the end of May Georgia gave an insight into her 'life lately' with an update - but failed to mention the McFly star.
She shared a series of recent photos with Cooper and her friends - with Danny missing.
She captioned the post: 'Life lately… Friends, family, filming, fresh air and fun… lots of lovely fun.'
Danny and Georgia's marriage was rocked after the I'm A Celeb winner shared a drunken kiss with campmate Maura at a Universal Records party and further reports claimed the pair had continued their night until 6am, sharing wine together at Nobu Hotel bar.
Danny, who apologised to his wife and family for 'putting them in this situation', has stayed living at the couple's West London home, where Georgia moved to on her own as he appeared on the ITV jungle series in December.
Sources told MailOnline that despite their efforts, Danny and Georgia are like 'passing ships' and friends fear their relationship is hanging on by a thread.
A source told MailOnline: 'Danny and Georgia have been trying to navigate a very difficult time in their marriage and for the best part they have been taking each day as it comes.
'They may be living under the same roof, but they barely see each other and right now are like passing ships.
'Danny is preparing for his summer gigs with McFly, and Georgia has been attending influencer events and collaborating with brands, all while looking after son, Cooper, who regularly features on her Instagram profile.
'But when they're not working, Danny is out on his motorbike or exercising in the gym, and Georgia is either on her own or spending time with family and girlfriends.
'They haven't actually been publicly seen together for six weeks and behind the scenes, their relationship is anything but normal.'
Georgia, who's a former Miss England, temporarily moved out of the family home in the wake of the kissing scandal.
But after deciding to give their marriage a second chance, she returned to the property as sources claimed Danny was willing to do 'anything to make it work.'
MailOnline contacted Danny's representatives for comment at the time.

"We are not here to speak negatively about any individual or company. "However, we have to stand up for ourselves and, more importantly, for the people who work hard to make Attila run smoothly. "Moving forward we are going to take the necessary measures to make sure nothing like this ever happens again. "We can only hope you understand and respect our decision."

"But let's just say that we (Attila) did every single thing right, showed up to Germany, & got absolutely f****d over day 1.
