DANNY Jones’ wife Georgia has been supported by her sister while making a return to her podcast for the first time since her husband’s ‘drunken kiss’ with Maura Higgins.

Georgia has been absent from her podcast since husband Danny was caught on camera sharing a kiss with his I’m A Celeb co-star Maura at a BRIT Awards after party in March.
Seemingly getting back into work mode, Georgia could be seen wearing some indigo blue jeans, a pair of black shoes, a white t-shirt and a green bomber jacket as she left the studio.
Meanwhile, her sister was seen rocking a green floral dress, some trainers and a beige-coloured coat.
On Tuesday, Georgia revealed on Instagram that she was back recording her podcast.
Georgia famously hostspodcast Mum’s The Word!with palKelsey Parker, though has not taken part in it since the news broke of her husband’s drunken kiss.
Georgia’s last appearance on the podcast was March 3, which was released before the news of her husband’s kiss with Maura hit headlines.
The following week, Georgia did not appear in the March 10 episode of Mum’s The Word! With Georgia Jones & Kelsey Parker, with Kelsey hosting solo.
Instead of being joined by Georgia, Kelsey was joined by former Love Island star Olivia Bowen, who discussed the heartbreaking loss of one of her unborn twins.
At the start of the episode, Kelsey failed to touch on Georgia’s absence when she says: “Welcome back to Mum’s The Word. I’m your host Kelsey Parker and today I am joined by the amazing Olivia Bowen.”
And not only was Georgia absent from her podcast, but she swerved an in-person event last month as well.
She had been due to participate in a Q&A with her pal Kelsey, who she co-hosts her podcast with.
But Georgia was nowhere to be seen during the event at The Baby Show in London, despite Kelsey attending and answering questions from fans.
Days before she was due to speak at the event, a source told MailOnline: “Sitting down for a Q&A in front of a live audience is not what Georgia needs right now.
“She is mortified at how this has all played out and can’t help but feel humiliated.”
But now, Georgia seems to be getting back to work and recently announced she will be heading toThe Big Feastival in the Cotswolds in August with her podcast.
This comes after Georgia’s pals said she needed space before deciding her next steps with Danny after his kiss with Love Island star Maura.
Georgia went to stay with a friend after the news broke of Danny’s kiss.
A pal told The Sun: “The break has done Georgia a world of good.
“Being out of the house and with her friend Rose Mahon was what she needed to clear her head.
“Her relationship with Danny was pushed to breaking point and they are still trying to work out what they want.
“Danny has made it clear he will do anything to make it work.
“He loves Georgia and wants their marriage to get back on track.”

Emergency services were called at 1.23pm on Monday with London Ambulance Service, London Fire Brigade, the RNLI and the Coastguard searching for the missing schoolgirl.
The force said: “A recovery mission is now under way to find Kaliyah along the Thames, with the Met leading an extensive examination of the area.”
It said Kaliyah’s family have “asked for privacy at this distressing time”.
A relative told The Sun: “It was her birthday last week. She had only just turned 11.
“She was a beautiful bubbly girl. A very happy girl and lovely girl.”
Shaleen Rajaendram, 59, who lives on Barge House Road which leads onto the causeway, said: “I heard upstairs a guy was screaming ‘wait there, wait, the police is coming’.”
The man was standing on a balcony in a flat block overlooking the river and later told Ms Rajaendram he had been alerted by the children “shouting, screaming”, she said.
Ms Rajaendram continued: “Then I saw suddenly two kids were coming out to the top of the bridge, I said ‘what happened?’
“Then they said ‘one of my friends was playing in the water, one of my friends has gone into water and she’s gone underneath and we can’t find her’.”
The girl returned home while the boy told Ms Rajaendram where the incident took place.
Ms Rajaendram then called her neighbour, Kerry Benadjaoud, 62, who took a life ring down to the water but could not see the girl.
A man said he had called the police, Ms Benadjaoud said, adding: “But he said at the time he could see her (the girl’s) hands going down.
“So, by the time I got down there with the ring I couldn’t find her.”

The lifelong area resident said she discovered shoes, a sock, a coat and a phone near the river, and handed the items to the police.
“Apparently she was paddling, so her socks and shoes were off, her coat, then she must have slipped and gone down”, she added.
Ms Benadjaoud said the boy who had been with the girl was around eight or nine years old.
She said: “The little boy turned around and said ‘I tried to hold her hand but it slipped’.
“I said to the little boy’s parents, obviously he needs to see someone because it’s going to affect him later”.
Barge House Causeway is a concrete slope that goes directly into the River Thames and is used to transport boats, and residents pointed out that it appeared to be covered in moss and is slippery.
The girl’s next of kin have been made aware and are being supported by officers.
LAS was called at a similar time to police after receiving a report of a person in the water at Lowestoft Mews, close to the airport.
“We sent resources to the scene, including an ambulance crew, an advanced paramedic, an incident response officer and members of our hazardous area response team,” a spokesperson said.
“Our crews assisted our emergency services partners at the scene but were later stood down.”
LFB deputy assistant commissioner Joseph Kenny said: “Firefighters responded to reports of a person in the River Thames near Lowestoft Mews, Newham.
“Crews from East Ham, Barking, Ilford and Bexley fire stations were sent to the scene alongside crews from the HM Coastguard, RNLI, London Ambulance Service and the Metropolitan Police Service.
“The brigade also deployed its drone team and fire boat as part of its response, with crews carrying out a systematic search of the area.
“The brigade was first called about the incident at 13:23. Search operations for firefighters were concluded at 15:49 when responsibility for the incident was left with the police.”
A spokesperson for the RNLI said: “Tower RNLI was requested to launch this afternoon (March 31) to an incident near Woolwich.
“The lifeboat was later stood down.”
