Jacqueline Jossa has firmly addressed the ongoing rumors about her marriage to Dan Osborne, stating she is “done” explaining their relationship status to the public. The couple, who have been married for several years, have faced intense speculation about a potential split, particularly after listing their home for sale and Dan purchasing a separate property.

In an exclusive interview with The Sun, Jacqueline made it clear that despite the rumors, she and Dan are still very much together and simply taking a step back to reassess their assets. “People seem to think they know more about my life than I do,” she said, refuting claims that their marriage is on the rocks. “They were saying: ‘Jacqueline didn’t spend Christmas with Daniel.’ But all I have to do is post pictures of us together with Christmas hats on. We lie in bed next to each other, laughing and reading stuff online about us.”

Jacqueline expressed frustration at the constant speculation but admitted that being in the public eye comes with the territory. Reports the Mirror, She explained, “I read things about Mark Wright and Michelle Keegan and go: ‘Really? Is that true?’, but I’m sure they are happy. It’s not my business what other people think or want to read.” Despite her frustrations, Jacqueline noted that she has made a conscious effort to stay out of the limelight in recent years, opting not to participate in reality shows. “Apart from me being back on EastEnders, I haven’t put myself out there in that space,” she added.

The actress, known for her role as Lauren Branning, shared that she and Dan have focused on their family life and careers instead. “We just crack on with our day jobs and looking after our kids,” she said. “He is a fantastic dad. I’m done going on to social media trying to explain it.”

Jacqueline also touched on a distressing incident from last year when she and her family were victims of a robbery during a holiday. The couple, along with their two daughters, Ella and Mia, and Dan’s son Teddy, were reportedly confronted by two masked burglars in their villa in August. It is believed that the thieves made off with around £20,000 worth of jewelry, including Jacqueline’s engagement ring. A friend of the couple revealed that the burglars managed to break into the property in about ten minutes, despite the villa’s security measures. “The villa has good security and Jacqueline and Dan have got CCTV. They think it took about ten minutes for the burglars to break in,” the friend shared.

Despite these challenges, Jacqueline remains focused on her family and career, firmly dismissing the ongoing rumors surrounding her personal life.
