One source who provided information on their marriage breakdown after eight years said Dan’s absence at a family gathering was a telling sign.

Jacqueline Jossa and Dan Osborne’s marriage reached “breaking point” at Christmas, as the pair spent time apart. The couple confirmed their split at the weekend, after tying the knot eight years ago.

One source says their relationship had been struggling “for months” and that it reached a head in December. “Jacqueline and Dan’s marriage had been on the rocks for a while,” they said. “The cracks really started to appear at the end of last year and they reached breaking point at Christmas. At a time when most people are spending it with their closest and dearest, that wasn’t the case for them.” Spending the festive period with her family, Jacqueline, 32, was pictured with daughters Ella, nine, and Mia, six, in a snap posted my mum Selina – but there was no sign of Dan, 33.

“When that picture was posted, eyebrows were raised,” according to the source. “Where’s Dan?” was the question that was raised. They made an effort to get their union to work, but ultimately it just went too far. They are now attempting to understand their separation and what it means for their children.

It also appeared there was no love lost between Dan as his mother-in-law Selina, who has unfollowed him on Instagram, after appearing to previously be on friendly terms.

The EastEnders actress and the TOWIE star issued a joint statement this week to confirm their split. It said: “Jacqueline and Dan are handling things privately, choosing to keep their lives and relationship out of the public eye. They kindly ask for respect and privacy as they navigate this together.

Their children are always in charge, surrounded by both parents’ love and care, which is unchangeable. Above all, Jacqueline and Dan are concerned about the best interests of their children. There won’t be any more comments.

Over the years, Jacqueline and Dan’s relationship has been in the spotlight. The pair began dating in 2013 and married in 2017. It hasn’t been a drama free union. As well as spilt rumours, the pair have been dogged by cheating allegations, most namely in 2018 when Dan was seen with Gabby Allen on a yacht together, with both of them denying that anything had ever happened between them. The pair were on Celebrity Big Brother together in 2018.

Following her stint in I’m A Celebrity back in 2019, which she went on to win, Jacqueline planned to “restart” their relationship after admitting she had given her then-husband “two years of hell” over the allegations. Dan later issued a statement following that interview, where he said some of the allegations were “true” and some were “very untrue” and vowed to be the best husband he could be.

According to reports, their marriage suffered as a result of Dan’s purchase of a home last year without telling Jacqueline until the end.

In January Jacqueline’s reps denied the pair had split when approached by the Mirror. The following day a source told The Sun that: ”Jacqueline and Dan are both shocked, hurt and upset about the rumours of a split. Yes, it’s true they are selling their house, but that doesn’t mean they’re not together.”

Jacqueline, who plays Lauren Branning on the BBC1 soap, was this spotted without her wedding ring following her split as she headed out to the gym in Essex.

After a think tank questioned why Prince Harry was allowed into the country after admitting to using drugs in the past, Prince Harry is facing facing a lengthy legal battle in which files relating to his application for a US visa will be made public today.

Prince Harry is braced for the release of private documents related to his US visa application amid a long-running legal row. A judge in America has ordered the release of the documents as part of an ongoing Freedom of Information (FOI) request brought by conservative US think tank the Heritage Foundation.

Harry’s reference to taking cocaine, marijuana and psychedelic mushrooms in his controversial memoir Spare prompted the Washington DC organisation to question why he was allowed into the US in 2020 after quitting as a working royal. We take a look at what he’s said about his drug use in the past…

Cannabis

One drug that Harry admits taking in Spare is cannabis and in the book, he recalls his introduction to it while he was at Eton College. He said: “I don’t remember how we got the stuff. One of my mates, I expect. Or maybe several.

We would install a surprisingly thoughtful, organized assembly line in a tiny upstairs bathroom whenever we found ourselves in possession. Second and third boys sat in the empty bath, legs dangling over, waiting their turn, while the second boy leant against the window.

“You’d take a hit or two, blow the smoke out of the window, and then move on to the next station, in rotation, until the spliff was gone,” you might say. Then we all headed upstairs and giggled ourselves silly over a new show episode or two. “Family Guy”

Later in the book, he also recalls rolling a joint while he and Meghan were staying at Tyler Perry’s house after they fled to the US. In the book, Harry recalls how he and Meghan loved Tyler’s house describing it as ‘Xanadu’.

He also explains how, when everyone went to sleep, he would find himself checking the windows and doors around the house while security concerns were in his head. And he states in his memoir, “Then I’d roll a joint and sit on the balcony or the edge of the garden.”

The house looked across a hillside full of frogs and down onto a valley. I would take their late-night show and take in the floral air. I returned to Botswana because of the frogs, smells, trees, and the sky’s big stars. For those over the age of 21, cannabis is permitted for recreational use in California.

Cocaine

Harry also mentioned his drug use in Spare and said he had been offered a line at someone’s country house during a shooting weekend, and that he had since done a few more. Although it appeared to everyone around me to be making me feel special, it wasn’t very enjoyable and it didn’t make me feel particularly happy. However, it did make me feel special, which was the main goal.

“Feel. Different . I was a 17-year-old boy who was incredibly uneasy and willing to try almost anything to alter the status quo. I kept telling myself that, regardless. At a meeting with Dr. Gabor Maté, he said, “That didn’t do anything for me.” More of a social issue, perhaps?

Psychedelics

Harry also mentioned using hallucinogens at the same time, saying: “It was the removal of life’s filters — these layers of filters. It made it all for me, allowing me to relax, feel at ease, and feel less burdened for a while. He said, “I started doing it for recreational purposes before realizing how beneficial it was for me.”

Harry continued, “I would say that one of the fundamental aspects of my life was the one that helped me deal with the traumas and the pains of the past.”

It can be difficult to travel on a tight budget with all your essentials because many airlines now only offer a small handbag or backpack option in place of a free cabin bag. The brand’s mid-season sale for £104, down from £130, has the option of purchasing the Soft Stripe Underseat Cabin Bag, which is designed to fit perfectly underneath your plane seat.

The case is ideal for frequent travelers, long weekends, or overnight stays because it is 35 x 45 x 20 cm and complies with requirements from airlines like British Airways, EasyJet, and Virgin Atlantic.

A lifesaver when navigating airport security is the case’s double-layered pocket, which gives you quick access to electronics and necessary documents like board passes or passports. When using a smaller case, the soft exterior, as opposed to the hard shell, is advantageous because you can fit a little bit more inside.

What should you know about the 2025 Spring Sale on Amazon, including early deals that are already in effect.

This spring, you won’t need anything from Claudia Winkleman’s new luxe M&amp, S blazer.

The case can be stowed in the overhead locker for extra legroom, which is a definite plus because of its light design. Nothing is worse than having to call over a flight attendant or struggle to lift your bags, which results in holding up the entire plane.

The case works beautifully with the other Soft Stripe suitcases, which are also on sale, in indigo blue, forest green, and black. The Lightest Large Suitcase is now $ 292, the Lightest Cabin Suitcase is now £ 136, and the Lightest Medium Suitcase is now £ 168.

However, Tripp’s hard shell underseat cabin case is available for £42 here if you’re looking for a slightly more affordable option. This bag’s dimensions would fit British Airways and EasyJet planes as well.

A backpack like this one from Amazon, priced at £25.99 here, would probably be the best choice if you’re looking for luggage to fit their free hand luggage requirements because Ryanair’s luggage allowance is a little smaller than some other airlines.

Palma, the couple’s first child, was born earlier this month, and Mark Wright and Michelle Keegan are said to be “incredibly protective” of their daughter.

Mark Wright and Michelle Keegan are reportedly only letting immediate family see their new baby as they take time adjusting to their new lives.

The proud parents welcomed Palma Elizabeth Wright into the world on March 6 and told fans they had a “new love”. Netflix star, Michelle, 37, posted a sweet snap of little Palma on Instagram shortly after her birth. But now, she and Mark are said to be keeping access to their daughter strictly limited to their closest family.

A source said, “These first few days have been incredibly precious for both of them, lifting the lid on their family dynamic. They feel incredibly protective of both their child and their family. They simply want to be able to enjoy themselves without the interference of too many others.

They continued, “They’re not thinking too far ahead, and their immediate family will be allowed inside their baby bubble.”

Mark and Michelle’s countdown to Palma’s arrival was unfortunately marred by a terrifying burglary, which left the couple “shaken”. The parents-to-be reportedly locked themselves in their bedroom when their £3.5million Essex mansion was targeted by masked raiders in February.

Before their lavish pad’s alarm system went off, the Brassic star radio host is said to have heard their porch window smash. When four balaclava-clad suspects nearly entered the property, it is thought that Michelle and Mark were inside. When Mark yelled, authorities heard it through the couple’s security system, which advised the raiders to leave the scene in a getaway car. Thankfully, the couple was “very shaken up,” despite the terrifying ordeal, which no one else was aware of.

Happily, they can now concentrate on enjoying their bundle of joy, which Mark, the son of the new dad, described as the “best feeling ever,”.

On their Heart FM radio interview, he mentioned fatherhood while mentioning Olly Murs, a pal of his, on the show: “It’s the biggest accomplishment of my life, but obviously hats go off to my wife, who is a superhero for bringing this baby into the world.

He continued, “It makes you realize what our mothers did for us and what women had to go through,” and he expressed his gratitude for all mothers.

A heartfelt black and white photo of Palma featuring a peek at the baby’s crocheted bonnet was posted on Instagram by Michelle. Michelle gushed, “Together we have a new love – our little girl – to share,” as the baby girl’s tiny hand is being lovingly held by her parents.

Being a father was “the best feeling ever,” Mark said to Olly, who welcomed his own daughter Maddison with wife Amelia last year. Every morning, I’m so excited to see her face that I get up.
