They looked loved-up during their ‘make or break’ family holiday in Mexico earlier this month, but Jacqueline Jossa and Dan Osborne are keeping fans guessing about the status of their eight-year marriage.
Now insiders reveal that Jac wants to give their rocky relationship one last try following their split last month – with a plan to move abroad for a fresh start.
‘Jac wants to give it one last try with Dan, and this time she feels like she’s got it all figured out by setting out a major plan for their future, which would see them live abroad,’ the source says. ‘She’s been dropping hints about it, but the truth is Jac seriously loves the idea of leaving all their problems behind by emigrating to Spain and she has already been looking at dream properties.’
Jac, 32, hinted that she would love to start a fresh chapter in Spain when she shared a photo of herself watching the sunrise on holiday. ‘Can’t wait for more mornings like this. One day I will live abroad somewhere with a beautiful view,’ she said. When a fan said their dream was to live abroad with their partner and kids, mum-of-two Jac replied, ‘Same.’
She told another follower, ‘I honestly think it would have to be Spain’ when they asked which country she’d love to move to, adding, ‘I think we all should and run a bar in Nerja [in Costa del Sol].’
Closer reported last week how friends were urging Jac, who shares daughters Ella, 10, and Mia, six, with Dan, to reconsider getting back with him. Jac is now hoping that a move away will help them escape the drama once and for all, but pals are warning her once again to be careful.
The source says, ‘Her friends are really worried as they don’t feel that moving country is going to magically fix all the problems. They’ve tried to tell Jac that wherever you go, your head goes with you – and you still carry all the same worries and insecurities. But Jac sees living abroad as a fresh start and finally leaving all the negativity and bad memories behind.’
Having been together since 2013, Jac and Dan’s 12-year relationship has been plagued by cheating rumours. They split briefly in 2018 after Dan, 33, was linked to Love Island’s Gabby Allen. He was also forced to deny he had a threesome with his Celebrity Big Brother housemates Chloe Ayling and Natalie Nunn that same year. ‘I’ve made some [mistakes] that have almost cost me my family’, he said in 2019, as the couple vowed to ‘restart their relationship’.
But in March, they announced in a joint statement that they’d split – days before reuniting for their fortnight-long holiday, which has given Jac fresh hope that they can get their romance back on track again.
The source adds, ‘Jac feels this could be the answer to all their problems. She knows it’s a wild decision, but this holiday with Dan gave her so much hope. He was like a different man and everything felt new again. She wants to keep hold of that feeling. Her gut instinct is telling her that being away in another country would be a chance for them both to start again.’
