Jacqueline Jossa shared on her Instagram that she was sad because their family had to miss out on holiday due to the coronavirus outbreak. She is currently self-quarantining with her husband, Dan Osborne, and two children, Ella, 5, and Mia, 22 months.
Former "EastEnders" star posted a lovely photo of her and her daughters in their swimsuits playing in an inflatable pool in their garden. She captions it with "bringing the holiday to the home since 2020."
Then Jossa posted a series of videos in her Instagram story while laying on her sofa watching Lady and the Tramp, as her children play outside. She admitted to her 2.6 million followers that she was feeling down and is missing her family while practicing social distancing.
Jacqueline Jossa Develops OCD
She said that she had been into cleaning the house lately, and it is making her crazy. She added that when her firstborn daughter Ella moves a toy, she would ask her to put it back to its original place. She feels like she is developing OCD.
Jacqueline Misses Her Family
Her message to all the sad people out there is that she is on the same boat as them because she feels sad for not seeing her mom and dad, and she also misses seeing her kids play with her parents.
Also, she misses her sister and her kids because she is used to seeing them at least twice or three times a week. She wants her kids to play with their cousins.
The "I'm A Celebrity" winner said that it seems like the global health crisis has given us all a "natural pause" from our busy everyday lives.
She is thinking about what is happening to the world as it is making her daughters confused because they are used to seeing their grandparents, and now they do not get to see them.
She even jokingly asked if it is possible to do this for months because, for her, this is life's way of giving us a pause. She compared the current events to her experience in the jungle last year and said that it was the hardest and most horrible experience she has ever had because she had to be away from her daughters for four weeks.
However, that experience was enlightening, according to Jossa. She said that she is not going to take her kids for granted because she wants to spend all the time with them.
Jacqueline's Message to Parents
The 27-year-old mother is telling parents to take this pause and natural time to restart and reconnect with their children by playing with them and doing fun things together. She said that she would be taking off from Instagram to spend more time with Daniel and her daughters, so they could enjoy being at home.
Speculations of Dan and Jacqueline Split Up
Dan Osborne posted a photo of him on Instagram while working out with a caption saying that he does not know what day of the week or month it is anymore, but he is glad that he ordered [this] gym equipment before the pandemic happened. Then he followed through advising people to stay positive, fit, and, most importantly, stay safe and healthy.
However, one of his fans noticed that he was not wearing his wedding ring and asked if he and his wife have split up.
Osborne replied, saying that he does not wear his ring during workouts.
That statement cleared up speculations.
