Soap star Jacqueline Jossa got fans talking earlier this year when she posted a series of sweet family photos – minus husband Dan Osborne and her wedding ring.
It didn’t take fans long to notice, and the actress was bombarded with messages asking whether her relationship was on the rocks. Former TOWIE and Celebrity Big Brother star Dan, 32, is father to her two daughters, Ella, nine, and Mia, who turns six this week.
The rumours were quickly denied by Jacqueline, who subsequently took to Instagram to post a number of cute family snaps, with her wedding ring firmly back in place.
And sources close to the EastEnders star, 31, have said that they are “happier than ever”, and that Dan was simply missing from the Instagram post due to being “busy with hosting duties”, including looking after his parents.
Friends of Jacqueline’s have also said she often removes her rings, especially when she’s filming the BBC One soap, for fear of losing them. The interest in the couple’s marriage is no doubt due to their past troubles. Jacqueline, who returned to her role of Lauren Branning in EastEnders in January, following a five-year hiatus, first started dating Dan back in 2014, but the pair split for a brief period soon after.
And although they reunited in 2015 and married in a fairy-tale ceremony in 2017, after a two-year engagement, they split again in 2020 during the lockdown. Jacqueline moved out of the family home in Essex for a while to live with her parents.
