Dan Osborne reveals truth behind Jacqueline Jossa split

He admits that the couple's future remains uncertain

It’s been one of the biggest showbiz sagas in recent memory – have Dan Osborne and Jacqueline Jossa split, or haven’t they?

Cryptic tweets, photos of the couple ‘without their wedding rings on’ and rumours of Dan moving out of the family home have left many people speculating that their year-long marriage is on the rocks.

Well, finally there’s some news from the horse’s mouth – Dan has revealed exactly what’s happening between the showbiz pair.

The former TOWIE star, 26, has confirmed that he HAS moved out, but insists that he’ll RETURN in time for heavily pregnant Jacqueline, 25, to give birth.

In an interview with the Daily Star Sunday, the Essex-born hunk explained that he’d flown the nest he shares with Jacqueline and their three-year-old daughter Ella, following a series of rows.

He said: “I’m still staying with a mate. I left because we were arguing, and it is such a waste of energy.

“I still obviously care for Jacqueline, but if we can’t make each other happy then we shouldn’t stay together. Life is too short.”

Back in January, Dan and Jacqueline sounded thrilled as they announced that the former EastEnders actress was pregnant with their second child – even if it did come as a surprise.

Dan told OK! magazine: “We hadn’t been trying, so it was a huge shock. I think I’m still getting my head around it.”

However, in the months that followed, a number of things occurred that cast serious doubts over the couple’s relationship.

First up, Jacqueline set tongues wagging when she posted a couple of cryptic messages on social media.

In one, she appeared to slam media speculation about her marriage. She ranted: “No one needs to comment and get involved in things they don’t know anything about. Daniel and I are dealing with things privately as a team.”

She followed that up with an Instagram message that said: “Family and friends are just everything.”

And last week, Express.co.uk reported that the couple had been ‘spotted without their wedding rings on’.

But while those doubts have, sadly, turned out to be true, Dan revealed that he will be there for his estranged wife when she goes through labour.

He told the Daily Star Sunday: “I will move back to help before the birth and with the baby, but I don’t know after that. The main priority is the kids.”

Here’s hoping they can sort out their differences…
