With the UK summer proving to be a total washout, Jaqueline Jossa had the right idea by heading to sizzling Spain.
The former EastEnders actress was spotted with her two daughters, Ella, eight, and Mia, five – who she shares with husband Dan Osborne – looking truly relaxed as she soaked up the Mediterranean sun.
And her carefree beach photos caused her fans to sigh with relief after she admitted that she has finally learnt to shake off the pressure she’d previously felt over her appearance.
“I used to think I was fat at 17, 18 – how sad and miserable is that?” she said recently, reflecting on her teen years. “That’s why I can’t be bothered to moan now. Because I know in the future when I’m grey and old, I’ll be like, ‘I was so beautiful then why did I moan and call myself fat every day?’”
Jacqueline, who appeared on EastEnders as Lauren Branning from 2010 to 2018 before returning for two brief appearances last year and earlier this year, said her body shape noticeably changed after leaving the soap and having kids because she “wasn’t as active any more”.
