Danny Jones marriage 'in crisis' amid fears of new Maura Higgins kiss video leak
The McFly singer, 38, was spotted kissing his I'm A Celebrity.... Get Me Out Of Here! co-star, 34, last week at a BRIT Awards after party, with the video later emerging online.
Since then, the musician has been in 'crisis talks' with his wife, Georgia Horsley, 37, in an effort to save their marriage of 11 years.

A new source has come forward to claim it is time Danny was "honest" and publically address what happened between Maura and himself, the Mirror reports.
The source claims: "Everyone would understand why Danny and his wife have been quiet. They are likely working through various discussions from the first video that was released alone. With this second video, Danny needs to now speak out.
"Maura is getting a lot of the backlash, and Danny seems to be getting away with his actions as a husband who was supposed to have been in love with his wife for over a decade. Danny's career should be halted at this point, and he should be big enough to now speak out to everyone and explain what has happened and take some accountability.
"This is unfair on his wife, who seems to have put the family and their marriage first. Who knows if another video will emerge, but being honest is now the only way that this has a chance of resolving itself".
It comes after reports that Georgia was focusing on their seven-year-old son Cooper and "protect him from all this madness."
"She loves Danny, but she is hurt," a source told MailOnline. "Georgia's priority is, and will always be, her boy Cooper. She wants to protect him from all this madness."
The insider added that although she's "more forgiving than most", the kiss "might be one step too far".
Neither Danny nor Georgia have publicly commented on the Maura kiss.

Cole Swindell Celebrates Release Of New Album 'Spanish Moss'
Singer/songwriter Cole Swindell Over the past eleven years, singer/songwriter Cole Swindell has made an indelible mark on country music. His expansive catalogue of music has racked up billions of streams and 13 No. 1 hits, so far. Familiar songs incudes 'Chillin' In,' 'You Should Have Been Here,' 'She Had Me At Heads Carolina,' and many more. The Georgia-native, who got his start as a songwriter, has also co-written a number of songs for other artists including the Florida Georgia Line and Luke Bryan mega-hit 'This Is How We Roll.' Swindell has just released his fifth studio album and can't wait for fans to hear it. Spanish Moss offers an ambitious collection of songs Swindell either wrote, co-wrote, or collected from other songwriters – all of which reflect where he currently finds himself in life. Cover of Cole Swindell's album "Spanish Moss" 'It's been a crazy process of trying to make the best album we can,' he says. 'But I knew when it was right, the whole team did, and now it's a complete album and here it is. I'm very proud of the whole thing, all twenty one songs. It's the most songs I've ever put on an album.' Tracks include 'Kill a Prayer,' 'Dirty Dancing,' 'Left to Get Right,' 'Take Me Down,' 'Heads Up Heaven,' and more. Many are deeply personal like 'Forever to Me,' a song he wrote for his wife, Courtney, on their wedding day. Another is 'Dale Jr,' inspired by Swindell's first time meeting with Dale Earnhardt Jr. At first glance, it might seem to be a song about two men at the top of their respective fields (country music and NASCAR), but it touches on a more emotional connection between the two. Both men lost their dads when they were far too young. 'People might see the title and think it's some kind of race car song, but it has nothing to do with that,' Swindell explains. 'It's me talking about the night I met a guy I'd always cheered for, whose dad was special to me and my dad. It's a true story about a common bond nobody wants to have. My dad was Keith Swindell, and his dad was Dale Earnhardt, but just Dad to him. So, Dale Jr and I didn't talk about entertainment or racing, we just talked about our dads.' Swindell has shown a true gift for tapping into his own life to write songs that resonate with others. He wrote his 2016 hit, 'You Should Be Here,' as a tribute to father who died unexpectedly when he was on tour. And while his 'She Had Me At Heads Carolina' was a re-worked version of Jo Dee Messina's 90s hit 'Heads Carolina' (with the help and permission of the original songwriters), it was inspired by Swindell listening to the song with his mom as a young boy. 'I legit remember riding around with my mom when the original version of 'Heads Carolina' came out,' he recalls. Swindell ended up sharing the stage with Messina as they performed 'She Had Me At Heads Carolina' at both the CMA and ACM Awards in 2022. It ended up winning 'ACM Song of the Year.' 'To be able to collaborate with her on those awards shows and for it to become one of the biggest songs of my career, has got to be one of the most full-circle moments of my life and career.' Spanish Moss comes three years after Swindell's last album. He says he might have liked to have come back around with something sooner, but he wanted to take the time needed to find the right group of songs. 'I'm proud of every album but that last one (Stereotype) did a lot of big things. 'She Had Me At Heads Carolina" and 'Never Say Never' with Lainey Wilson. So, to follow it up, there was some pressure and I think that's what made this one what it is." Swindell wrote or co-wrote just under half of those on the album and worked with Nashville's songwriting community for the rest. But all are close to his heart. 'A song has to be absolutely perfect for me,' he explains. 'It's got to make me feel something or wish I had written it. People ask, how do you know it's for you? And the answer is - if I wish I'd written it. It's a lot easier for me to tell my story, but, man, there's something special when somebody else tells it almost better than you could have told it yourself.' While Swindell is excited about the album, it comes as he and his wife, Courtney, prepare for the arrival of their first child, a baby girl. 'I'm so excited to be a dad, I'm tearing up just thinking about it,' he says. 'I'm telling you, I'm so emotional about this kid. I know I'm going to look at things a lot differently. You know, you always talk about your songs and albums being your babies and now I've got a real one coming. It's an exciting time in my life for both of them to be coming at the same time.' The baby is due in early August. Swindell will have some time off to spend with his family, then gear up to head out on his headline Happy Hour Sad Tour in September. Opening acts include Priscilla Block, Logan Crosby and Greylan James. He says it's hard to believe so much has happened since he left Georgia and headed to Nashville all those years ago. At 42, he's grateful for his incredible success in music. And now, over the past few years, having met his wife and now getting ready to start a family, he considers himself blessed beyond measure. 'I'm so proud of everything I've accomplished in my career, obviously. But finally getting my personal life in line, I think that's what I'm most proud of. And now having somebody to share all of this with.' Cole Swindell performs at The Big 98's Friendsgiving at The Grand Ole Opry on November 25, 2024 in ... More Nashville, Tennessee. (Photo by)

MLB All-Star starters named - who stood out?
Yahoo Sports senior MLB analysts Jake Mintz and Jordan Shusterman run through the list of players who will begin this year's Midsummer Classic in Atlanta. Hear the full conversation on the 'Baseball Bar-B-Cast' podcast - and subscribe on Apple Podcasts , Spotify , YouTube or wherever you listen. View more Advertisement Video Transcript Let's fly through the All-Star Game starters, which we got. Last night, the American League will be Cal Riley behind the plate. Vlad Junior at first base, Glaber Torres at 2nd, Jacob Wilson, former guest on this show. At shortstop, the first rookie shortstop starter in All-Star history, I believe; Jose Ramirez at 3rd base; the outfielders Aaron Judge, Riley Green, and Javi Baez. Ryan O'Hearn will DH in his first All-Star game appearance. Jordan, anything from the AL? Yeah, I think just the Tigers, the three Tigers is really awesome. Green, well deserved; his power surge this year has been amazing. Advertisement Glaber, well deserved; you know, it's a weak AL second base crop, but he's having an amazing season. I think he's got like a .380 on-base percentage, a really fun season there. And then Javi Baez is just one of the best stories of the entire season. It is funny that he gets voted as an outfielder because he very quietly has just reclaimed his job as the shortstop, but Baez starting in center for the AL All-Star game is amazing. The amazing thing is that he was traded for the other center fielder in this game, which is Piar Armstrong, just a delightful little nugget there. Let's go to the NL. Behind the dish, Will Smith, at first base, Freddie Freeman; second base, Keibert Marte, who is the highest vote-getter in round two of the voting. Advertisement Lindor at shortstop in his first ever All-Star start, and his first All-Star game as a Met, both of which sound impossible. Manny Machado at 3rd base in his 7th All-Star game, Ouna, Piar Armstrong and Kyle Tucker with the Cubs all in the outfield. The DH is gonna be Shohei Ohtani. We knew that already. This from Opta stats about Ouna. Ouna made a season debut in the Braves' 50th game. The only other player in MLB history to start the All-Star game despite not making his season debut until his team's 50th game or later was Joe DiMaggio in 1949. That is a fantastic fun fact. And yeah, I'll just talk about Keibert Marte. Advertisement Like last year, he finished 3rd in MVP voting with a 155 OPS plus, and I was like, wow, ... ... ... ... ... ... ... I didn't think he'd ever get back to his 2019 levels. This year, 175 OPS plus for Ketel Marte. He is sensational, uh, one of the best players in baseball.
