MAURA Higgins has touched down in Los Angeles after fleeing the UK amid her 'drunken kiss' scandal with Danny Jones.

In new footage, the pair are seen gazing at each other at the five-star Nobu Hotel — which they visited soon after their 3am Brits smooch.

Yesterday The Sun revealed Maura, 34, and McFly star Danny, 38, stayed at a hotel until 6am sharing wine.

And just a few hours later, the Irish star told fans she was heading to Los Angeles for an "exciting shoot".

Maura has now been spotted arriving at Los Angeles International Airport on Sunday afternoon.

The former Love Islander appeared to keep a low profile with a black ALO yoga cap and dark sunglasses.

Maura opted for comfort for the 10 hour flight - wearing a black one-piece bodysuit, a white jacket, trainers and socks.

The star looked serious as she exited the airport, while pushing a trolley with her Louis Vuitton luggage loaded on it.

Maura kept her curly brunette tresses in a low ponytail and wore little to no makeup.

Earlier today, Maura broke her cover to share a snap from her business class seat on a British Airways flight leaving London Heathrow.

She had a what appeared to be a glass of white wine in front of her and headphones at the ready for the long haul flight.

It comes after we revealed she continued partying with Danny until 6am after their kiss at the Universal Brits after-party.

Only security guards appear to be nearby as they are seen chatting intimately, laughing and holding filled wine glasses.

They then disappeared into a darkened, curtained-off side room at the Nobu Hotel in central London.

Staff said the room was for use by guests only.

One security guard said: “You can only go through there if you are staying at the hotel.”

Earlier that night, at about 3am, Maura was heard shouting “Danny” as they stood on The Strand leaving a Universal Records party at 180 House where they were filmed kissing at 2.50am.

They travelled by car separately across London to a Sony party at Marylebone’s Nobu Hotel.

An onlooker said: “Danny and Maura seemed to be enjoying their night of partying and had no plans to call it a night.

“They were knocking back wine at the Nobu from 4am and seemed keen to carry on. They weren’t seen leaving before 6am.”

The pair met when they appeared together in ITV1’s I’m A Celebrity in November.

After the Brits last Saturday, reality star Maura changed out of a see-through black outfit into a white minidress and jacket, with no top underneath, before going to an after-party where she kissed Danny, 38.
