Just last month, Danny, 39, also uploaded the first picture of his partner to social media since his kiss scandal broke. Mum-of-one Georgia, 38, has endured a tough year sparked by Danny's drunken kiss with I'm A Celeb co-star Maura Higgins at a BRITs after-party, which The Sun was first to reveal in March. The incident plunged their marriage into crisis and the podcast host was reportedly "furious" at the way the Star Girl singer handled the aftermath of the debacle. Now they have put on a united front at the Wonderwall hitmakers' comeback show. An image posted to Danny's Instagram Stories showed the couple, who share son Cooper, flashing a loving look at each other after Oasis' mammoth setlist. They looked adoringly at each other in the black and white image, with Danny's parent in between them. The McFly boyband star wrote in his caption: "Oasis day one that was f***ing incredible." On her page, mum of one Georgia posted a snapshot of her Adidas outfit, with red shorts and a white top. At the gig, Oasis paid an emotional tribute to rocker Ozzy Osbourne who passed away this week, aged 76. Danny Jones' wife Georgia breaks down in tears live on This Morning saying 'I felt like a failure' PRESSING AHEAD Georgia's heart-warming upload came after a rough few months for the influencer and her family. Pals previously said she was keen to press ahead with her career and did not want to be "seen as a victim" after Danny's kiss was exposed.

They married the following August in her hometown of Malton, North Yorks, in a ceremony which featured musical performances by McBusted and Ellie Goulding.

Danny Jones and wife Georgia enjoy Oasis date night as they move on from Maura Higgins kiss
McFly star Danny Jones and his wife of almost 11 years, Georgia, went to see Oasis as they get their marriage back on track following his drunken kiss with Love Island's Maura Higgins McFly's Danny Jones seems to be back on track with his wife Georgia Horsley after the couple's 11-year marriage was rocked by Danny's drunken kiss with I'm A Celebrity co-star Maura Higgins. The couple were all smiles as they attended the first of seven Wembley gigs for the Oasis reunion tour. Mum-of-one Georgia, 38, could be seen in a black and white photo posted on her husband's Instagram Story, which showed her beaming as they made their way from Wembley Stadium. Danny was looking over at her as they shared a laugh between them, showing they've put their rocky patch behind them and have moved on. They were joined by Danny's mum Kathy, who walked in between the pair in the candid snap. It's been a tough year for the couple, with the news of Danny's drunken BRITS kiss with Love Islander Maura sending shockwaves earlier this year. Danny, 39, shares seven-year-old son Cooper with his wife, who he married in 2014. The singer and reality star eventually apologised for the incident, with Georgia temporarily moving out of the family home. But lucky for Danny, it appears Georgia was willing to give their marriage another try, although the pair lay low on social media since the video surfaced in March this year. They appeared on Instagram together earlier this week, in a family photo taken in the garden. Podcast host Georgia shared the photo, writing: "And then there were 17... My family are dotted all over the world so getting all of us together at once is near on impossible which makes days like this even more special. "Cousins, aunties, uncles, parents, husbands, wives, kids… my house was full and my heart happy. Missed you Si." Danny's grovelling apology to his wife was issued two weeks after the clip of him and Maura cosying up at a party after the BRITs went viral. He apologised to his family for his behaviour, writing: "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." After taking a break from Danny, Georgia got back to work on the podcast she hosts, alongside Tom Parker's widow, Kelsey. Despite public sympathy for Georgia's situation, the former Miss England winner refused to be "seen as a victim." A source told The Sun: "Georgia has her head back in work and this year is already shaping up to be very exciting. She has got a fresh deal with Omaze to record social media ads. "Georgia is refusing to be seen as a victim and after everything that happened she wants to crack on and get back out there. She has already done some filming for them and couldn't be more excited about what doors this job could open." While Georgia and Danny work on their marriage, Maura has remained tight-lipped about the whole situation. A source told Closer earlier this year: "It's been a tough few weeks for Maura. She's mortified and would do anything to erase what happened. She was at complete rock bottom when it all came out. "At the same time, she feels like some of the backlash that's come her way is unjustified. She's saying that she refuses to be labelled as the villain or the sole reason that Danny's marriage is in bits. It just isn't fair for all the blame to be on her."

Wet Leg: Davina's favourite band are coming to get you. And second album, Moisturizer, proves that the Isle of Wight indie rockers are no one-hit wonders, says Adrian Thrills
Verdict: Cream of the crop BENSON BOONE: American Heart (Warner) Verdict: Heartland rock goes pop There was something gimmicky about Wet Leg when the Isle Of Wight duo began attracting attention with their deadpan 2021 debut single Chaise Longue. Formed at a local music college by students Rhian Teasdale and Hester Chambers, they were clearly talented but also, as that name suggests, a bit silly. One-hit-wonder status appeared to beckon. Four years on, they are a more serious proposition. They may not hail from a traditional hotbed of rock and roll, but Wet Leg are on the cusp of the big league. Since Chaise Longue, they've topped the UK album charts, won two BRITs and two Grammys, played stadiums with Harry Styles and conquered the world's festivals, including last weekend's Glastonbury. Their second album, Moisturizer, out next week, is a significant step forward. With the three male musicians who have been touring with Teasdale and Chambers now full-time members, Wet Leg have grown into a road-hardened quintet — and Moisturizer avoids any second album wobbles. It's less quirky than their self-titled 2022 debut, but it cements their indie-pop credentials while incorporating dance music and big pop ballads. The group (who got their name by picking emoji combinations at random) moved to the genteel Suffolk seaside town of Southwold to make the album, writing by day and watching horror films at night. Their gothic movie club has prompted a few spooky touches. Chambers and Teasdale sport ghoulish talons on the album sleeve, with Teasdale also flashing a fiendish grin. There's also a song inspired by the cult horror film Jennifer's Body. Other than that, though, affairs of the heart dominate. The songs are split between those celebrating loved-up domestic bliss and those giving the brush-off to unwelcome amorous advances. In the former camp, CPR sees Rhian examining the complexities of a new relationship. 'I took a breath, jumped off the cliff because you told me to,' she sings. 'Is it love or suicide?' Another love song is named after Wet Leg super-fan Davina McCall, and uses the latter's Big Brother catchphrase ('I'm coming to get you') as an expression of unbridled passion. The mood is more acerbic on Catch These Fists, a dance-punk number about resisting a sleazy male admirer. 'This always happens late at night, some guy comes up, says I'm his type,' sings Teasdale. The changes of pace arrive towards the end of the album. The disco-influenced Pokemon is a dreamy love song ('your kiss is all I'll ever need, you taste so sweet, like grenadine'), and 11:21 a tuneful electronic ballad that shows how Teasdale is developing into an assured frontwoman. Their old whimsy now gone, Wet Leg are in it for the long haul. There's more to American star Benson Boone than first meets the eye. The singer from Washington State, who appeared briefly on American Idol in 2021, chalked up the UK's second biggest single of 2024 (behind Noah Kahan's Stick Season) with his bruised ballad Beautiful Things. He seemed thoughtful, introspective... and a little (whisper it) dull. I was half expecting more of the same when I saw him play a sold-out show at Kentish Town Forum last year. Within minutes, however, he had revealed his true colours by pulling off a gravity-defying backflip from the top of a speaker cabinet. He was similarly energetic when opening for Taylor Swift at Wembley Stadium last summer. Brian May, who has played live with him, calls him 'a golden prodigy'. His second album, American Heart, attempts to add blue-collar rock to his repertoire. He says he was inspired by Bruce Springsteen, although his brand of Americana is perhaps closer to The Killers, with a touch of Harry Styles's featherlight pop. There's strong material here, plus moments that are more generic. What stands out is his forceful, belting voice. There's something touchingly wholesome to the songs, all co-written by Boone, 23, and his collaborator Jack LaFrantz. One number, Mr Electric Blue, pays tribute to his dad ('a man's man, a good, hard-working American'). There's another track, piano-and-strings ballad Momma Song, in which he sings about how much he misses his mum when he's on tour. Elsewhere, he wrestles with ideas of masculinity on The Man In Me and revisits a forgotten love affair on Take Me Home. There's a similar sense of yearning on Reminds Me Of You, in which Boone lists all the things that bring back bittersweet memories of an old flame. These include flip-phones, coffee, a New York show and, bizarrely, a popular brand of mouthwash. But it's his performances that steal the show, even when he's making the most of some average material. He soars on Mystical Magical, recycling Olivia Newton-John's 1981 hit Physical, and delivers the title track with a flourish. 'We're living in some crazy times, and I get so scared we'll never make it through our 20s,' he sings. Brian May's faith in him isn't misplaced. Moisturizer is out on July 11. Wet Leg play TRNSMT Festival, Glasgow, the same day ( American Heart is out now. Benson Boone starts a UK tour at SSE Arena, Belfast, on October 23 (
