Jacqueline Jossa supports Dan Osborne as he launches ambitious new business
EastEnders star Jacqueline Jossa showed her support for The Only Way Is Essex star husband Dan Osborne as he prepared to launch his new tanning salon business venture Jacqueline Jossa has thrown her support behind her husband Dan Osborne as he launched a new business - weeks after fears their marriage was on the rocks. The former EastEnders star, 32, has been married to ex-Towie star Dan, 34, since 2017 and together they are parents to two. Earlier this year it was suggested that Jac and Dan's marriage was on the rocks and headed for calamity. But come April, there were signs the couple were working through their issues and a "make or break" holiday away signaled that they were still together. Over the weekend, soap star Jacqueline turned up to the launch of her husband's new business venture, showing her support for the enterprise. Dan has created a new tanning salon in Benfleet, Essex, called Paradise. The couple were spotted there over the weekend - with Jac sporting a t-shirt adorned with the name of the new shop across the back. Dan shared highlights of a launch event while also teasing the official opening day. Sharing photos and video footage on Instagram, he wrote: "Thank you to everyone that came down today for our opening party of @paradiseinbenfleet We will be finally opening Wednesday 2nd July been a long time coming." Jacqueline reacted to the post writing: "Congratulations" alongside an excited emoji. While many other friends and followers reacted to Dan's post to offer further messages of congratulations. Jacqueline and Dan have weathered many storms over the course of their 12 year romance. They met at an awards show in 2013 and began dating soon after. They announced they were expecting their first child together the following year and their daughter, Ella, was born in February 2015. Four months later, in June 2015, the pair revealed they had become engaged. Dan shared the news with a social media post explaining he got down on one knee during a trip to Greece. He shared at the time: "She said YES!!! I am the luckiest man in the world to be marrying the woman of my dreams." After tying the knot in June 2017, the couple announced they were expecting a second baby together in January 2018. However, in May that year, they suffered their first bump - with reports hinting they had broken up while Jac was still pregnant. In June 2018, second daughter Mia arrived and in October that year it was revealed they had got back together - only for Dan to endure several claims he had been unfaithful in 2019. Despite repeated remarks their marriage was in trouble, the couple managed to remain close in the years since. But at the beginning of this year, there were reports they had broken up and were putting their family home on the market. Dan and Jacqueline ultimately hit back at the claims, however reports in March claimed Dan had moved out. However, they rekindled their romance in April when they took a "make or break" holiday to Mexico. A fellow holidaymaker told The Sun that they appeared to be getting on well, commenting: "Dan and Jac looked like any normal couple. There were a few Brits at the resort, but no one recognised them and they were left alone to relax and enjoy quality time together."

ITV announces huge change to how fans can watch Emmerdale and Coronation Street
From the beginning of next week, soap fans will be able to watch Emmerdale and Coronation Street via a whole new service - leaving many fans rejoicing at the news Soap fans were both excited and confused when ITV announced a major change to their weekly output. For decades, fans have tuned in to watch new episodes of Emmerdale and Coronation Street on the channel when they air on week day evenings. But as of Monday 30 June, fans will be able to watch new episodes from the beginning of the day as they will be available to view online hours before they transmit via traditional transmission avenues. Taking to social media on Sunday, social media channels connected to the soaps shared exciting news with fan. The update revealed that new episodes will be available to watch via YouTube for the first time. The official Coronation Street Instagram page announced: "Soap fans, rejoice! "Starting tomorrow, full episodes will be available on YouTube from 7am — the same day they air on TV!" The update included an image showing Emmerdale and Corrie characters posing beneath logos of their respective soaps. The update thus caused some confusion - as some fans thought that the cast of the soaps were being merged. One follower remarked: "I literally thought Debbie was joining Emmerdale for a moment there!" And others were excited to learn that they would be able to watch their favourite soaps via a new format - as many complained the ITV app is nigh on unusable. One hopeful soap fan commented: "Nice I hate itvx with their [user interface] and 27 ads a ep." And another commented: "This is awesome news! Yayyy!" In recent months, ITV has announced a number of changes regarding the way Corrie and Emmerdale will be broadcast. In February it was revealed the schedule would be changed from the beginning of next year. A statement from the broadcaster explained: "From January 2026, Coronation Street and Emmerdale will move to a new scheduling pattern on ITV1, introducing a soaps power hour from Monday-Friday, with 30 minute Emmerdale episodes at 8pm, and 30 minute Coronation Street episodes at 8.30pm. Episodes will continue to drop at 7am on ITVX, before transmission that evening." ITV's Managing Director of Media and Entertainment Kevin Lygo said at the time:'The new commissioning pattern is viewer-led. We already give more choice than ever to viewers on how they watch us through ITVX and we want to present their favourite soap to them, in the most digestible way. 'In a world where there is so much competition for viewers' time and attention, and viewing habits continue to change, we believe this is the right amount of episodes that fans can fit into their viewing schedule, to keep up to date with the shows. 'Research insights also show us that soap viewers are increasingly looking to the soaps for their pacey storytelling. Streaming-friendly, 30 minute episodes better provide the opportunity to meet viewer expectations for storyline pace, pay-off and resolution. 'Whilst viewing is growing on ITVX, we know a significant proportion of our soaps' audience still watch us via the schedule. This new pattern is in the DNA of the soap genre - nobody else does 30 minute drama this successfully. It creates a soap power hour that's consistent, and easy to find in the linear schedule, for the UK's biggest soaps. 'This new commissioning pattern will mean five hours of soaps a week, rather than the current six. We are conscious this will have an impact for the people who work on the soaps team. We will support our colleagues in ITV Studios as they work through these changes, and will do what we can to mitigate the impact on our people. 'These changes are motivated by doing what we believe is best for the continuing success of these important programmes in the long term. They also create headroom in the overall programme budget for investment in programming that can help ITV grow reach in a very very competitive market.'
