Jacqueline Jossa’s announcement that she’s returning to EastEnders has delighted soap fans, but a source believes her surprise comeback is a “make or break” move that could put unwanted strain on her and Dan Osborne’s six-year marriage.
Last week, the 30-year-old actress revealed she’s heading back to Albert Square later this year to reprise her role as Lauren Branning – five years after her dramatic departure.
And now a source has told new that while former TOWIE star Dan, 32, is “over the moon” at his wife’s soap return, the pressure of playing feisty Lauren could put pressure on the couple and their cosy family dynamic.
“Since Jac left EastEnders, she and Dan have lived in their own bubble and have been able to spend lots of time together with their children,” the source said. “Her return to the show could make or break this situation, with her working many more hours.
“Jac feels it’s the right time to go back to work, but like any working mother, she knows it’ll be tough. They are a strong couple and although they’ve had their ups and downs, they’ve always come out the other side and stick together no matter what.”
The mum-of-two’s big announcement came just days after she set tongues wagging with a cryptic quote on her social media that read, “Anyone who doesn’t value what you bring to the table doesn’t deserve you.”
