Jacqueline Jossa and Dan Osborne 'Living Separate Lives' Despite Reconciliation
Jacqueline Jossa and Dan Osborne are reportedly living separately despite having reconciled after a breakup last year, with sources suggesting the couple's marriage dynamics have significantly changed.
Reconciliation Followed by Separate Living Arrangements
The EastEnders actress, 33, and the TOWIE star, 34, broke up in 2025 and even sold their family home, but later rekindled their relationship during what was described as a "make-or-break" holiday to Mexico. However, insiders now claim that while they remain married, they are living what one source called "separate lives," with Dan reportedly having his own place.
A source told The Sun: "Dan and Jac aren't living as the average married couple. Their priority has always been the kids, and that will never change. Dan would never want to be apart from them, but knows he and Jac get on better when there's some distance so they're living separately as and when it suits."
Prioritising Children Amid Relationship Challenges
The couple, who have been married for eight years, share two daughters. Sources emphasise that both parents remain committed to co-parenting and keeping their family unit as stable as possible, despite the apparent strain in their romantic relationship.
"Jacqueline wasn't on board, but she wants to keep her family together," the source continued. "That's always been the goal. She's making the best out of the situation and trying to be as flexible as possible. It's a sacrifice, but she wants to say she's tried everything."
Cryptic Social Media Behaviour and Denials
Fans have noted changes in the couple's online interactions. Despite attending a family outing to see Paddington: The Musical together, neither posted photos tagging the other. Jacqueline has also shared cryptic quotes on social media, including one that read: "I recently heard someone say: 'The amount of good things in your life depends on your ability to notice them.'"
However, the couple's representatives have pushed back against split rumours, insisting to The Sun that they are "happier than ever." Another source suggested Jacqueline is "very private" and would likely keep any marital issues hidden "until she's ready to deal with the fallout."
History of Rumours and Previous Separation
The couple's relationship has frequently been subject to speculation, particularly regarding allegations of Dan's infidelity. They confirmed their separation in March 2025, issuing a statement that asked for "respect and privacy" while stressing that their daughters would "remain their top priority, surrounded by love and care."
Signs of trouble emerged earlier when their six-bedroom Essex home, which they had spent three years renovating, was put on the market in summer 2024. The property sold for £1.6 million in spring 2025, around the same time it was reported both had stopped wearing their wedding rings.
Rumours also circulated that Dan had purchased a bachelor flat without Jacqueline's knowledge, though she publicly dismissed this, calling it an "investment" and insisting there was "no big feud" between them.
Current Status Unconfirmed
The claims that Jacqueline Jossa and Dan Osborne are now living separately have not been officially confirmed by either party. Representatives for both stars have been approached for comment regarding the current status of their marriage.
Despite the ongoing speculation, those close to the couple maintain that they "love each other very much" but have both matured and changed over time, leading to this unconventional living arrangement focused on their children's wellbeing.
