Maura Higgins’ brutal backlash after Danny Jones kiss proves blame always falls one way

Numerous guests spotted Danny Jones and Maura Higgins looking very cosy and loved-up at the 2025 BRITs Universal afterparty before sharing an intimate moment. Get Me Out of Here! I’m a Celebrity! In the party’s footage, which was captured at 180 Studios on The Strand, co-stars were seen kissing one more time.

The McFly singer, who has been married to Georgia Horsley for more than ten years, kissed Maura early on Sunday morning in the middle of the night. The short clip has received a lot of comments online, with many blaming Maura for the adultery.

One user wrote, “Sad thing is, this is not her first encounter with a married man,” in a popular Reddit thread. His wife revealed that her Dancing on Ice partner’s relationship with Maura caused his marriage to end, and his wife later claimed it was due to his relationship with her. She believes that all men are cheaters because she is busy helping them cheat, according to another user.

The lack of accountability for Danny Jones’ behavior was glaringly obvious because Maura was the target of the majority of the criticism. Monica Lewinsky spoke recently on the Call Her Daddy podcast, which was hosted by Alex Cooper, about the stigma associated with being referred to as the “other woman” and how her infamous affair with US President Bill Clinton had an impact on both her career and overall safety.

Lewinsky claims that “I was very quickly depicted as a stalker or mentally unstable, a bimbo, who was both the pursuer and who was not attractive enough to be pursued.” And, in reality, there was a version of me that neither my friends nor family recognized.

No denying that Monica Lewinsky had a sexually and emotionally charged relationship with Bill Clinton. She now recognizes her errors and comprehends how they have portrayed other women negatively. Even though they are frequently pursued, Cooper and Lewinsky continue to talk about how these affairs always have an impact on women. The pair examines Lewinsky’s loss in the years that followed, as well as in the heat of the situation.

The double standards that women are expected to uphold by society are illustrated by Monica Lewinsky’s case. There was a very clear power imbalance, especially in Lewinsky’s case, where Monica was a 22-year-old intern having an affair with the married US President, who was 27 years her senior. She was never the one who made vows to a spouse, so she was never required to keep that commitment. However, President Bill Clinton was able to maintain both his position in power and his marriage while she was given the name and label of “the other woman.”

As Monica Lewinsky demonstrated, who had an affair and was constantly being scrutinized and dissected by complete strangers, that labeling women as “the other women” has incredibly detrimental effects on those involved, both short and long term.

It’s important to consider who is truly accountable for these actions, even though the kiss between Maura Higgins and Danny Jones is still receiving criticism.
