Dan Osborne treats Jacqueline Jossa to romantic meal amid claims ‘her parents want her to dump him’


Dan Osborne treated his wife Jacqueline Jossa to a romantic dinner date at home on Saturday, amid claims her parents are staging an intervention in a bid for her to split from him ‘once and for all’.

Sharing the results of his hard work on Instagram, the former TOWIE star, 28, appeared to brush his marriage drama aside as he sat opposite the actress, 27, while catching up over a delicious meal. 

The ex-EastEnders star is currently splitting time between two homes after reportedly issuing an ultimatum to her husband in a bid to save their marriage, but according to a new report, her mother and father want their daughter to leave her romance behind as they ‘fear for her future.’

The Sun on Sunday has claimed the mother-of-two’s family are not fans of her tumultuous relationship with the father of her children, with a source claiming: ‘To say that John and Seline don’t approve of their son-in-law is an understatement.

‘John has had words with Dan on lots of occasions and has warned him against damaging his daughter.

‘Jacqueline has proved massively popular since her jungle win and it’s felt by them and her advisers that he is bad for business. He needs to be out of the picture on a permanent basis and they are planning to make this very clear.’

MailOnline has contacted Jacqueline and Dan’s representatives for further comment.

The publication also insisted Jacqueline walked out on her long-term partner after he sent ‘flirty messages’ to longtime pal Gabby Allen – a rumour she has since denied – months after the pair shut down claims they had an illicit tryst. 

A representative for soap star Jacqueline told MailOnline: ‘To suggest Jacqueline and Dan have argued over messages is totally false.’ 

‘Dan has begged for one final chance, and of course she wants to fight for her marriage for the sake of their kids.’

It previously emerged that Gabby’s ex, Myles Stephenson, had told his I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! co-star Jacqueline in December about Gabby and Dan’s purported ‘affair’, after she grilled him for information in the Australian jungle.

Rumours first began swirling Gabby and Dan were having an affair in April 2018, after they were pictured looking cosy on a yacht together in Marbella.

But the trained dancer has since claimed her ex-boyfriend is a ‘compulsive liar’ and has rubbished any allegations her and Dan were more than friends.

She revealed at the time of the initial allegations in April 2018, Jacqueline messaged her to ask if there was anything she would like to tell her.

I’m A Celebrity bosses allowed Jacqueline to contact Gabby again by voicemail in December in order to try and clear up any doubts she had after Myles’ claims. 

Jacqueline, who shares daughters Ella, five, and Mia, 23 months with Dan, is reported to have given her husband a ‘last chance ultimatum’ as they work on their turbulent relationship.

The Queen of the Jungle has moved back into her family home on a part-time basis after claiming that she needed a break last week.
