Singer Danny Jones and wife Georgia look to be getting their relationship back on track and she appeared on This Morning in an emotional segment on the ITV show
Danny Jones’ wife Georgia broke down in tears as she emotionally opened up on her 18-month struggle with postnatal depression.
The McFly star’s partner says she ‘felt like a failure’ following the birth of their son Cooper seven years ago. She discussed her troubles on ITV’s This Morning, and says she woke up every day praying things would improve. Postnatal depression affects more than one in 10 women within a year of giving birth, and Georgia says she wanted to shine a spotlight on the help available for anyone who may be struggling.
Singer Danny his wife Georgia faced a tough time earlier this year after he was pictured kissing his I’m A Celebrity campmate Maura Higgins at a showbiz bash. The pair are trying to move forward, and she has put her energy into raising awareness of the condition.
Danny was recorded snogging Love Island beauty Maura at a Brits after party back in March. Danny, who has been married to Georgia for over a decade, eventually issued a grovelling public apology days after the drunken kiss after Georgia temporarily moved out of their family home.
Georgia told viewers: “Cooper is our absolute world, and it’s hard to imagine, but the immense love I have for him now wasn’t there right from the beginning. The hardest part for me was just that, becoming mum. It was the initial entrance of Cooper into the world and how I felt. It wasn’t that instant gushy, ‘Oh my gosh, I love my baby so much’ and I think because I didn’t feel that, I then put so much pressure on myself.
Tearfully, Georgia added: “I was just not the best person to be around because I was just low. I felt like I was failing at being a mum, really failing at being a mum, and I didn’t want that, nothing in me wanted to feel the way I was feeling. You try and you try, each day you wake up and you’re like, ‘Ok, hopefully I’ll feel better today’ and then you don’t. Then you’re like, ‘Why? What’s wrong with me?’.”
She went on: “I had postnatal depression and despite trying to mask it, those closest to me knew I wasn’t coping. Danny definitely noticed that I wasn’t myself. What he found hard was that he couldn’t fix it and he didn’t know how to solve the problem. After 18 months of struggling in silence, I finally reached out. I went to therapy and honestly, it was the best thing I’ve ever done.”
While the married couple navigate their new lives post-kiss, Georgia gave fans an update on ‘life lately’ earlier this month as she posted a string of snaps on her Instagram. Snaps shared by Georgia showed her spending time with friends, working on upcoming projects and soaking up special moments with her son Cooper, who is seen playing a guitar and posing with friends before attempting a Go Ape course.
A source has claimed to the Daily Mail: “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.
