Reality star Dan Osborne has headed on another family trip with Jacqueline Jossa and their kids as they continue to focus on their marriage after announcing their split in March
Dan Osborne has continued to prove he is trying to make things right with Jacqueline Jossa and focus on their family amid reports he sent “flirty texts” to Christine McGuinness. The couple tied the knot in 2017 but, following months of speculation, announced in March that they had decided to spend time apart.
However, just weeks later it seemed like they were not ready to give each up just yet as they jetted off to Mexico for a “make or break” family holiday with their children. Speaking to the Mirror, a source said the pair were “trying to fall back in love with each other again.”
They explained: “They’ve had a rocky, up and down relationship so now they’re trying to do things differently and give each other more space at home, while enjoying this holiday. Jacqueline and Dan want to be together for their children and do want to be a family, but now it’s a case of remembering why they were together in the first place.
“It’s been a tough road, and they know things need to change to make this work.” Dan, 33, and Jacqueline, 32, have continued to put in the effort and have jetted off on another family break together.
As they carve out their path of reconciliation, Dan shared snaps from their trip to Ireland with daughters Ella, 10, and Mia, six. They enjoyed a day in the countryside walking alpacas while looking out over sandy beaches.
In a heartwarming moment, Dan cuddled Mia as they cherished the family day out together. Their trip comes just days after reports that Dan had reached out to model Christine as they both dealt with their marriage breakdowns.
Christine was going through a divorce from funnyman Paddy McGuinness, and it was thought the pair found solace in each other’s situation and formed a stronger bond. The Real Housewives of Cheshire star’s marriage was over, but Dan was reportedly still trying to mend his broken home with the EastEnders star.
According to the Sun, the pair who have known each other since 2019, had stayed in touch in the years and remained amicable when they bumped into each other, but sparks soon became noticeable.
A source told the publication: “They stayed in touch sporadically and would bump into each other at events and their messages got pretty flirty. Some were seen by mutual friends.
“She would call him ‘D’ in texts, and it became an open secret among their circles. There is no suggestion anything sexual happened, but it’s fair to say there was a spark between them.”
The insider insisted: “She is absolutely adamant nothing sexual happened between them. She also was 100 per cent single at the time and could chat to anyone she wanted.”
Former TOWIE star Dan is also adamant there was no romance between the pair with a pal saying: “Dan is devoted to Jacqueline and would hate for any suggestion of impropriety. Of course, it’s possible for a man and woman to be mates.”
Christine and Paddy split after 11 years together. Despite breaking off their marriage vows, the duo stayed living together for the sake of their three kids.
