The REAL reason behind Jacqueline Jossa and Dan Osborne’s shock split after eight years of marriage as EastEnders star steps out for first time without her wedding ring/hi
Jacqueline Jossa and Dan Osborne split after the former TOWIE star purchased a property without his wife’s knowledge, MailOnline can reveal.
The EastEnders actress, 32, was left in shock after discovering Dan, 33, had bought a house in Essex, last year, which put additional pressure on their strained relationship.
Sources close to soap star Jacqueline, who shares daughters Ella, 10, and Mia, six, with Dan, say she felt ‘betrayed’, and it had ‘reignited old trust issues.’
The couple subsequently struggled to make their marriage work following weeks of heated rows.
Jacqueline, who was pictured for the first time on Monday without her wedding ring, was the sole owner of the couple’s ‘dream’ £2million six-bedroom home, which was put on the market in June and sold earlier this month for a six-figure sum.
A source told MailOnline that Dan, who’s also a father to son Teddy, 11, with ex-partner Megan Tomlin, wanted to ‘protect’ himself and invest in somewhere to live for his own security as his relationship with Jacqueline gradually declined.

An insider revealed: ‘Dan bought a house last year without telling Jacqueline until the final stages.
‘He put the wheels in motion because he believed their relationship was coming to an end and with Jacqueline owning their marital home, he needed to look after his future.
‘It caused a blazing row between them and the trust, which was already fragmented, really suffered.’
It was confirmed on Sunday that the couple had separated following almost eight years of marriage and over 10 years together, with Dan already spotted without his wedding ring.
The Sun on Sunday revealed Dan had packed his bags and moved out with the couple uncertain about their future.
An official statement said: ‘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 that will never change.
‘Above all, Jacqueline and Dan have each other’s and their children’s best interests at heart. There will be no further comment.’
MailOnline has contacted Jacqueline and Dan’s representatives for comment.

MailOnline exclusively revealed in July how Jacqueline had put her Essex mansion up for sale after spending years renovating the property, which she documented on Instagram.
Jacqueline previously described the abode as the couple’s ‘forever home’, sharing the moment she collected the keys with her followers.
The former I’m A Celeb winner, who returned to EastEnders as Lauren Branning in 2023, proudly shared videos on her profile where she took her fans on a tour of the property, showing off a bar area with light-up ‘The Osborne’s’ sign.
Jacqueline married ex-TOWIE star Dan in June 2017 and last paid tribute to her husband online in July, which coincided with their wedding anniversary and his birthday.
She wrote: ‘Just realised I haven’t even posted on the grid about Daniel’s birthday or our anniversary and I just wanted to do a little appreciation post for my bestest friend in the world. Over 10 years and seven of them married. Love you more than ever. Crazy little world isn’t it.’
The couple have faced their difficulties over the years, with their marriage plagued by cheating allegations against Dan.
He was accused of having a fling with Love Island: All Stars winner Gabby Allen in 2018 after they were pictured cosying up together on a yacht in Marbella.
The former ITVBe star was also accused of having sex with a mystery woman months after his wedding to Jacqueline, and partaking in a threesome with Celebrity Big Brother model Chloe Ayling and US reality TV star Natalie Nunn, which he denied.

Six months later, he was seen kissing 2018 Love Islander Alexandra Cane on a London night out.
In 2019, during her appearance on I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here!, fellow campmate Myles Stephenson, who had previously dated Gabby, told Jacqueline he believed Dan had cheated with the Scouse Islander.
A year later, Dan finally confessed to making ‘mistakes’ and said ‘I’ve done things I shouldn’t have done’ as he finally took responsibility for his actions.
He even admitted that if Jacqueline had behaved the same way he did, he would have walked out on their relationship, saying, ‘If it was the other way around I’d be gone.’
Dan has previously claimed it was Jacqueline’s stint in the I’m A Celeb jungle, where she was crowned winner, that made him realise how much he appreciates his wife.
He admitted to ‘struggling’ without her and once Jaqueline was out of camp, they agreed to hit the refresh button and start a new chapter.
They were hit with split rumours last Easter when Dan failed to make an appearance at a family get-together hosted by Jacquline at their home, but the coupled denied they were going through any problems.
