Jacqueline Jossa and Dan Osborne Split After 8 Years – Dan Moves Out of Family Home
Jacqueline Jossa and her TOWIE star husband Dan Osborne have called it quits on their marriage after eight years with him moving out of the family home
EastEnders’ Jacqueline Jossa and Dan Osborne have split up. It’s claimed that Jacqueline, 32, has remained in their family home with their children, while Dan has moved out and is living nearby.
Dan is believed to have packed his bags just last week just months after the couple were said to be “shocked” by speculation that they had split. In January this year, the couple who have in the past been plagued by speculation about their relationship denied that they had split up.
“Jacqueline and Dan are handling things privately, choosing to keep their lives and relationship out of the public eye,” a statement said. It added: “They kindly ask for respect and privacy as they navigate this together. Their children remain their top priority, surrounded by love and care from both parents — something that will never change. Above all, Jacqueline and Dan have each other’s and their children’s best interests at heart. There will be no further comment.”
A source close to the couple said: “Jacqueline and Dan are on a break and are spending time apart from each other. It’s not been easy for them lately and they have made this difficult decision.” They added that neither Jac nor Dan know what will happen in the future but their break was “needed.”

The source claimed to The Sun that the pair are “amicable” as they work through their differences. They also went on to confirm that there was nothing else surrounding their decision, other than their own relationship. “Jac and Dan have been rocked by their fair share of scandals but this situation could not be further from that,” the source said.
Just hours before the news emerged, Jacqueline looked utterly heartbroken as she took to social media. Taking to her Instagram Stories, the mum of two, posted an array of snaps look glum. Captioning the pictures ‘Saturday’, the actress wore a black and white stripped short sleeve top paired with light blue jeans. While she had a face of makeup, her expression was far from happy.

Last year, Dan was excluded from Jacqueline’s social media snaps as the family celebrated Easter and she had also ditched her wedding ring. But speculation was debunked by sources who stated that the couple were “happier than ever” and he was simply “busy” over the religious holiday.
Jacqueline, famous for playing Lauren Branning on EastEnders and Dan, who found fame on The Only Way Is Essex married one another back in 2017 at a Cheshire manor house. The couple are proud parents to Ella, nine, and Mia, six, while Dan shares son Tommy, 11, with an ex-partner.

Their family home was put on the market earlier this year, with reports suggesting that Dan had purchased a home in his own name nearby. Last year, she shared a rare insight into their marriage as she set the record straight following allegations of infidelity from Dan as well as another split.
Last year, Jacqueline shared a rare insight into her marriage. She shared a string of loved-up snaps alongside her husband and gushed: “Just realised I haven’t even posted on the grid about Daniel’s bday or our anniversary and I just wanted to do a little appreciation post for my bestest friend in the world. Over 10 years and 7 of them married. Love you more than ever. Crazy little world isn’t it. Also it’s crazy how little photos we take now. Need more!!”
Dan and Jacqueline’s rocky history dates back to 2015, when Dan was accused of engaging in inappropriate behaviour with a well-known model. More accusations surfaced in later years, with claims of infidelity involving former Love Island contestant Gabby Allen. The rumours created tension in their marriage, but Jacqueline had maintained that she worked through the issues.
Jacqueline is said to have threatened to leave I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! when a co-star told her he believed that Dan had been unfaithful with the Love Island star. Instead, she was granted permission to leave for a few moments in order to send Dan a voicemail.
The Mirror has approached Jacqueline and Dan’s spokespeople for comment.
