Dan Osborne's 'heartbreaking' post after split from Jacqueline Jossa

Dan Osborne has shared a poignant post saying he does not want to "go back to reality" following his split from wife Jacqueline Jossa. The former TOWIE star has been spending time abroad after the breakdown of his nine-year marriage to the EastEnders actress earlier this year.

In an Instagram video, Osborne was seen playing football with a friend, wearing only shorts. Captioning the post, he wrote: "I can't tell you how much I don't want to go back to reality." Another image showed him watching a golden sunset on the beach. The football fan also jokingly asked Inter Miami if they had any trials, sharing a clip of himself doing keepy-ups.

Osborne and Jossa, 33, have had a turbulent relationship, with previous splits before rekindling. However, sources claim the couple decided to make the split permanent after living separate lives. A source told The Sun: "Everyone knows they've had their troubles, but after spending some time apart this year, they've decided to make the split permanent. Their two daughters are their main priority."

Despite the split, Jossa recently shared a montage on social media of family photos, including a picture of Osborne kissing her on the cheek. The post featured their daughters Ella, 11, and Mia, seven, set to Ed Sheeran's 'Photograph'. The caption read: "Happy to be back at work after half term."
