SHORT BAFTA APPEARANCE AMID SCANDAL
A source said: 'Maura wanted her red carpet return to be a big moment. She thinks enough time has passed — she can't hide forever.
'She did just that in her big frock but she wasn't prepared for the length of the ceremony or the cramped seating in the hot hall.
'She was talking about her dress taking up too much space and was absolutely boiling.
"So she snuck out with pal Luke Hamnett while a nominations reel was shown.
"It'll be frowned upon in TV circles as the Baftas is an incredibly prestigious event and leaving is a big no-no.'
Another source told The Sun Maura also took off early because she had a shoot the next day.

Shoppers from all over the city rushed to the store to snap up quality clothing at pre-war prices in Ireland's first 'shopping frenzy'. During the excitement, a window was forced in and the police had to be called to help control the crowds hoping to bag founder Ben Dunne's 'Better Value' bargains. Dunnes later opened more stores in the 1950s and began to sell groceries in 1960 - starting with apples and oranges. The retailer said: "Fruit was expensive at the time and Ben Dunne yet again offered Better Value than anyone else in town. "Over time, our food selection has grown and that spirit of good value has remained strong. "Now we offer a wide range of carefully-sourced foods from both local Irish suppliers and overseas." The retailer's first Dublin store opened its doors in 1957 on Henry Street and a super store on South Great Georges Street was unveiled in 1960. They added: "In 1971, our first Northern Irish store opened, and many others soon followed. "Expansion continued in the 1980s in Spain, and later into Scotland and England." Dunnes now has 142 stores and employs 15,000 people.
