Jacqueline Jossa And Dan Osborne Confirm Split After Secret House Purchase

The couple navigates their separation amid trust issues and past scandals.

After nearly eight years of marriage, Jacqueline Jossa and Dan Osborne have confirmed their split, igniting discussions about the challenges they faced over the years. Reportedly, the couple’s relationship unravelled significantly due to Dan’s secretive purchase of property, according to reports from MailOnline and various other sources.

The couple, who share two daughters, Ella and Mia, found themselves grappling with trust issues, particularly after it came to light last year when Dan bought a house without Jacqueline’s knowledge. This decision reportedly ignited feelings of betrayal from Jacqueline, 32, and added to the strain within their relationship. Insiders have indicated this act led to considerable arguments as Dan, 33, attempted to secure his future amid fears their marriage was on shaky ground.

Jacqueline was spotted for the first time without her wedding ring following the announcement of their separation on March 16, 2025. The couple's shared home, which they had once considered their 'dream home', was recently sold for six figures after being listed for £2 million earlier this year. Sources close to the actress noted her sense of betrayal and the resurfacing of old trust issues when news of Dan’s purchase reached her.

According to reports, Dan believed their relationship was dwindling and sought to take proactive steps by investing in property. “He put the wheels in motion because he believed their relationship was coming to an end... It caused a blazing row between them and the trust, which was already fragmented, really suffered,” revealed one insider to MailOnline.

This isn’t the first tumultuous chapter for the couple. Their history has been marked by accusations of infidelity against Dan, including alleged flings with several women, creating stress and doubt throughout their union. Despite these challenges, the couple seemed to navigate their issues for years, even attending marriage therapy together. Jacqueline once expressed hope for renewing their wedding vows after the therapy helped them reconnect.

Through ups and downs, including temporary breaks due to conflicts and altogether split rumors, Jacqueline and Dan had always stated their commitment to being loving parents above all. A representative for the couple confirmed their intention to keep matters private, stating, “Jacqueline and Dan are handling things privately, choosing to keep their lives and relationship out of the public eye. They kindly ask for respect and privacy as they navigate this together. Their children remain their top priority, surrounded by love and care from both parents, something which will never change.”

Current reports indicate Dan has moved out of the family home where Jacqueline remains with their daughters. Friends describe their relationship as amicable. Yet, anxiety surrounding their family was heightened last year, underscored by past controversies, including said cheating allegations and even being victims of theft during their holiday.

The timeline of Jacqueline and Dan’s relationship tells their story from initial romance when they met at an awards show back in 2013. Following ups and downs through subsequent years—including the announcement of their first pregnancy the next year and marriage at Cheshire Manor House—has forged their life together. Yet, these struggles seem to reflect on their recent decisions. Jacqueline's attempts to affirm their commitment through the promise of renewing vows now seem distant.

Sources close to the family have not ruled out future reconciliations or clear paths forward as they continue to navigate their co-parenting situation. Nonetheless, both parents will remain devoted to their children regardless of the changes within their personal lives. What remains clear is their mutual love for Ella and Mia; Jacqueline and Dan remain united behind the scenes to prioritize their children's wellbeing, vowing to support each other through this challenging time.
