ROCKY RIDE The new issue threatening Jacqeline Jossa & Dan Osborne's turbulent marriage & final red line she won't let him cross
SINCE getting hitched in 2017, Jacqueline Jossa and Dan Osborne's marriage has come under intense scrutiny, with multiple allegations of cheating, money problems and even arrests plaguing the couple.
Earlier this year, it looked like the pair had finally split for good after ditching their wedding rings, selling their marital home and releasing a statement saying they were 'handling things privately.'

However, following a 'make-or-break' holiday to Mexico, it appeared they were giving it yet another shot.
Now, pals have shared the underlying issues Jacqueline and Dan still face as they desperately try to make it work - and revealed the one deal breaker that would see the EastEnders actress walk away for good.

'There was a really rocky patch back there and they almost split permanently,' a source said.
'But Dan begged Jac to stay with him. He knows he's not perfect and ultimately she is madly in love with him and can't see herself with anyone else.
"She is desperate to keep their family together and he wants to be with her too.
"They're making every effort to reignite their spark with a mixture of therapy and space.'
However, according to the insider, there's still one thing they just can't agree on - and it continues to cause conflict between them.

WEDDING WOES
'Jac is desperate for them to renew their wedding vows,' the source said.
'But Dan isn't as keen.
"Their children, Ella and Mia and Dan's son Teddy, are at the heart of everything they do - Jac thinks it would be nice for the kids to see it and for all five of them to be in a photo together.

'Dan believes they've already proved their love for each other by sticking together through the highs and lows, so why should they have to do it again.'
And the lows have certainly been plenty.

CHRISTINE CONTROVERSY

For years Dan, 34, and Jacqueline, 32, have had to fight rumours of infidelity. In 2018 he furiously denied allegations he'd been getting close with Love Island star Gabby Allen.
And a year later, as Jacqueline was in Australia filming I'm A Celeb, model Chloe Ayling claimed she'd had a threesome with Dan and US reality TV star Natalie Nunn, again, something he denied.
However, in an exclusive chat with The Sun in 2020, Dan admitted he had been unfaithful, saying: 'I've made mistakes. I've done things I shouldn't have done.'
So inevitably his marriage was rocked further in June this year when The Sun revealed he had been swapping texts with Christine McGuinness and had even met her at a hotel in 2023, following her split from TV presenter Paddy McGuinness.

Pals admit now that Jacqueline was 'frustrated' by the reports and 'hates when all eyes are on her and her marriage.'
'Jac was embarrassed and fed up after the Christine stuff" we were told.
'It wasn't news to her, she knew about the rumours, it was just dredging up the past that they had already worked through so it was frustrating for her to be in the spotlight again.
"She doesn't want the world thinking she's married to some love rat - as far as she's concerned Dan is a good man.'
That said, the source maintains that Jacqueline has been firm with her husband before.

'The biggest misconception about Jac is that she's a walkover and a mug,' the mole said.
'She's very strong minded and she's given Dan hell for what he's done in the past.
"He's paid the price - he would be the mug to cheat again.'
THE DEALBREAKER

If Dan upset their kids, Jac would be tempted to leave, according to a source

While our source genuinely believes Jacqueline 'will never leave' Dan, there is an exception to the rule and that would be if he ever did something publicly to hurt their children, Ella, ten, and Mia, seven.

'If Dan's actions upset or embarrass their girls, especially as they get older and understand more, that would likely be enough to push Jac to walk away,' the source said.
'If Dan were to put her in a position where she was being humiliated publicly again, especially after she gave him another chance, she'd be unlikely to stay.
"She's told him it's his last chance.'
PAST MISTAKES

Aside from the infidelity rumours, Jacqueline and Dan have navigated other issues which threatened to derail their marriage.

In 2019, his business, Storm Entertainment, was plunged into thousands of pounds worth of debt, which put strain on the couple.
And in 2022, Jac was devastated when Dan was arrested at her 30th birthday party, after becoming embroiled in a 'mass brawl' in their back garden.

However, our source said Jacqueline keeps a 'level head' when it comes to problems, preferring to focus on protecting her daughters and keeping her family - including Dan's eleven year-old son Teddy from his relationship with Megan Tomlin - together under one roof.
'Jac's very level headed about stuff,' we were told. 'She just loves Dan so much but also wants to keep her family together.
"She thinks marriages are about ups and downs and nobody has it perfect. You always need to work on it.

"Ultimately, she would hate for their girls to wake up in the morning without their dad there.'
RULES OF ATTRACTION

As they try and move forward after yet another rocky patch, things do seem to be on the up.
The source explained that therapy, communication and Dan being open and honest with Jacquline has been hugely beneficial for them. But ultimately, the fact of the matter is that Jacqueline still fancies the pants off her husband.
'Oh, she thinks Dan is absolute sex on legs,' confirms the pal.

'And he in turn tells her he doesn't want to be with anyone else - and that tells her everything she needs to know. They're a family, a strong unit and they love each other very much.'
I've made mistakes. I've done things I shouldn't have done
Dan Osborne
Following their 'make or break' trip to Mexico, it seems Jacqueline has laid down firm ground rules and boundaries, which, according to our source, Dan is happy to stick to.
'Jacqueline's decision to stay with him seems rooted in genuine love, committed work to heal (through therapy and time apart) and prioritising their family unit for their children,' they said.
'She hasn't glossed over Dan's mistakes - she demanded clear commitment from him and truly believes they'll grow stronger together.'

Love Island's Sophie Piper sends temperatures soaring as she puts on a busty display in a skimpy green bikini during boat trip
Sophie Piper showed off her jaw-dropping figure during a lavish boat trip in a picturesque location on Tuesday. The former Love Island star, 24, put on a busty display in a tiny green metallic bikini top, teamed with matching bottoms. Sophie's long brunette locks were styled in beach waves as she struck a sultry pose for the camera. Sophie was joined by pal and fellow Love Island star Samie Elishi, who also looked incredible in a stylish green ensemble. Sophie, the sister of Rochelle Humes, found fame on the sixth series of Love Island, and the first winter series, while Samie appeared on series nine. Sophie is in a relationship with Love Island series one alum Josh Ritchie whom she finished All Stars with in third place in February 2024. The sizzling new Instagram post comes just days after she stepped out with sister Rochelle at the launch of Space NK's new Oxford Street store in London. Sophie flashed her toned abs in a white vest and low-rise jeans, while completing the look with trainers and silver jewellery. Meanwhile, Rochelle opted for a black mesh top and a blazer, teamed with white trousers and sandals. The TV presenter's outing comes after her return from Ibiza with her husband Marvin, where they spent time with JLS' former tour manager Graham Quinn. Rochelle's pictures with Graham raised eyebrows after he found himself back in the public eye last week after his ex Myleene accused him of cheating on her with an unknown celebrity - at her own birthday party. Myleene claimed she walked in on him taking the clothes off an unnamed star who has built a brand on her 'family values' and i t appears Rochelle and Marvin showed their support for Graham despite the claims as they enjoyed a trip together. Fans are also convinced that Rochelle has fallen out with fellow Saturdays singer Frankie Bridge after she shared a cryptic video on TikTok saying 'you're dead to me'. People rushed to the comments to speculate whether she could be talking about Rochelle after they were reported to have snubbed one another at Wimbledon. The sizzling new post comes just days after she stepped out with sister Rochelle at the launch of Space NK's new Oxford Street store in London The former bandmates became friends in childhood, both finding fame in S Club Juniors before joining Rochelle Humes, Una Healy, Mollie King and Vanessa White in The Saturdays. Yet in recent months, their relationship is said to have soured, with the pair reportedly snubbing each other when they attended Wimbledon last month. The pair were both pictured enjoying the hospitality at the tennis tournament but it is said they kept their interactions to a minimum. An onlooker claimed: 'It was clear the women were keeping their distance. They sat on opposite sides of the suite and kept to themselves.' They added to The Sun: 'While Frankie posed for pictures with S Club's Rachel Stevens, Rochelle took selfies with her husband Marvin and his I'm A Celebrity campmate Sam Thompson. 'Even though they were pleasant to each other when they did brush shoulders, they didn't spend any extra time together than they had to, in between being amicable while passing each other en route to watch the tennis.' Frankie's representatives have told Daily Mail that there is 'absolutely no feud' between the pair, while The Sun reports that those close to Rochelle insist there is 'no feud'. Yet that didn't stop Frankie posting a cryptic social media post on Monday that was captioned: 'You're so quiet… Thanks, you said something five years ago and I've just realised you're actually dead to me.' The TikTok video showed Frankie sipping on a glass of wine and was set to the music of Avril Lavigne's What The Hell. Frankie then added below: 'Takes me a while, but once you're dead you're dead.' She didn't specify who or what incident she was talking about in the post. While Frankie and Rochelle found fame as singers they have since both turned their hand to the world of TV - with Frankie a regular panelist on Loose Women, while Rochelle is a stand-in presenter for This Morning. Rochelle has just returned from a holiday to the Balearic island with her husband to celebrate their 13th wedding anniversary. She penned: '72 hours in sea, belly laughing, questionable dance moves and spicy margs that tasted better than our decisions. 'Our annual non negotiable child free trip with old friends who remind you who you are. Sore heads all round today but ironically my battery feels recharged! Just what I needed. 'Happy 13 my love @marvinhumes what a way to celebrate'.

Kids share their top 10 wonders of the world… and they might not be where you think
Sunflowers, seashells, and rocks top the list of 'wonders of the world' CHILD WONDER Kids share their top 10 wonders of the world… and they might not be where you think A STUDY of 381 six-and-seven-year-olds, revealed their favourites out of the millions of everyday wonders. Caterpillars (40 per cent), puddles (27 per cent), and diggers (17 per cent) were among the things to children in their tracks. 3 The study found 40 per cent of six to seven year olds polled were amazed by caterpillars Credit: Getty 3 Sunflowers topped the list of daily wonder for kids Credit: Getty 3 Puddles also made it on the top ten of children's favourite things Credit: Getty With 81 per cent picking up and keeping 'treasures', such as stones from the beach, or a particularly wondrous stick discovered in the woods. It also emerged this wonder is having an impact on their parents, with 62 per cent, of the 600 mums and dads also polled, crediting their youngster for making them appreciate the magic of the everyday things in their environment. In fact, 55 per cent of parents are more likely to notice and be amazed by these daily wonders because their child is. As part of Specsavers' 'Wonder' campaign, alongside commissioning this research, museum-style exhibitions have launched across the UK showcasing children's 'wonders of the world' to get parents thinking about the importance of children's eye health and its impact on their joy and curiosity. Each installation in London, Manchester, Belfast, Edinburgh and Cardiff features a different 'wonder' selected by five local children, alongside their very own plaque. This includes Yusuf's Digger, Aoife's Caterpillar, Ava's Sunflower, Ffion's Rock, and Mila's Seashell. Professor Sam Wass, child psychologist and neuroscientist, said: "Children see the world in a way adults often forget - full of magic, mystery and wonder. "Good vision is essential to this journey of discovery. "It helps children explore, ask questions and learn through play, all of which are essential to their development." And kids said they're most likely spot everyday amazing things at the beach (68 per cent), in the garden (63 per cent), or at their local park (50 per cent). But 35 per cent will even find something interesting to inspect on the way to school, according to the figures. Nearly seven in 10 (68 per cent) parents said their children often stop to look at things most would consider everyday - on average, five times-a-day. Common phenomena they observe their children stopping to watch and wonder at included birds on a wire (26 per cent), reflections in water (20 per cent), and slug and snail trails (16 per cent). More than a quarter (26 per cent) even report often being late every few days because their child is too busy being fascinated by an object. Perhaps as a result, over half (56 per cent) have been encouraged to slow down and look more closely at the world around them. Which may help the 39 per cent who admitted they very much take their ability to see clearly for granted. A further 66 per cent would be concerned if their little one stopped pointing out these everyday wonders. As 19 per cent also said this would be among the reasons they'd book an eye test for their child, as well as if they were struggling to read or write (45 per cent) or rubbing their eyes frequently (44 per cent). Sarah Joyce, director of optometry at Specsavers, added: "Being able to see clearly is vital to children as they learn about the world - as around 80 per cent of learning in school is visual. "But around one in five children under the age of 10 have sight conditions that can get in the way of all that wonder. "Conditions such as long- or short-sightedness, astigmatism, or a squint can often be treated more effectively if they are picked up early - meaning regular eye tests from the age of four, or sooner if they are having any problems, are essential. "The great news is, for children under 16, the NHS will cover the full cost of the eye test."

She dished out free samples of the Orebella Nightcap fragrance, which mixes vanilla, ginger and cardamom. A smell of a combination. Last year, the model threw a late-night bash for her Orebella perfume, Nightcap, at the five-star Petit Ermitage Hotel in Hollywood. The dazzling brunette wore a plunging semi-sheer low-cut dress featuring sequins, which she paired with gold heels. Bella shared snaps from the party, themed around an enchanted forest, to her Instagram followers. Guests were treated to astrology readings, sipped on cocktails and nibbled on fruit platters before trying out the new fragrance. Hadid made a dramatic hair change back in May when she swapped her signature brunette hair for a bright shade of platinum. And last month she switched things up again by chopping it into a chunky fringe. Hadid showed off her new look on Instagram in a carousel captioned, "the wildest flower in the wild ."
