Jacqueline Jossa has stamped out any pregnancy speculation from fans, addressing the rumours in a question and answer session last weekend. The mum-of-two, who was crowned the Queen of the Jungle in last year’s I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here!, already shares two daughters with her husband Dan Osborne.
Teasing an important announcement to come over Instagram, Jacqueline, 28, asked her fans to guess what her exciting news could be.
However, when one fan wondered whether she was pregnant with her third child, the former EastEnders actress fired back with a candid response.
Adding the “thumbs down” emoji, Jacqueline replied: “[Had] lots of these. Nope. Just chubby.”
Jacqueline and Dan, who tied the knot three summers ago in a sprawling Cheshire manorhouse, welcomed their first daughter, Ella, five, into the world in 2015.

To fans’ delight, the former soap star then announced she was expecting her second child in January 2018, giving birth to little Ella Osborne, two, later that year.
“We hadn’t been trying so it was a huge shock. I think I’m still getting my head around it,” Dan told OK! magazine at the time.
“Kids are a blessing but having three children is going to be a big responsibility. I’m not going to lie, I feel quite scared!”
“We both started laughing when the test was positive,” Jacqueline added.
With the family living together in their cosy Kent home, Dan also has one son, Teddy, seven, from a previous relationship.
This isn’t the first time Jacqueline has been forced to nip any pregnancy speculation in the bud – back in March, the I’m A Celebrity winner assured fans she was “bloated” rather than expecting.
Sharing a photo of herself posing in side-profile, she added the caption: “NO, not pregnant, just bloated.”
However, hinting she isn’t entirely averse to the idea of having another baby, Jacqueline has confirmed she will design a line of maternity wear as soon as she falls pregnant.

Following the success of her collection launch with In The Style back in April, the mother-of-two welcomed questions from fans about her plans in the fashion industry.
“Have you thought about doing maternity wear?” asked one fan.
Jacqueline replied: “Yes, I thought about this, maybe if I am ever pregnant. Will be the first thing I do. Right now I don’t think it would work.”
Sunday’s question and answer session also yielded I’m A Celebrity speculation from fans, with many wondering whether Jacqueline would be taking part in the new series following her success in the jungle last year.
Beating fellow campmates Roman Kemp and Coronation Street actor Andy Whyment, Jacqueline took over from 2018 champion Harry Redknapp on the I’m A Celebrity throne.
However, the Londoner was quick to shut down the rumours, replying “nope” in response to fan speculation.
ITV has already announced the 2020 line-up for the new series, with stars like Vernon Kay, Victoria Derbyshire and Mo Farah taking Jacqueline’s lead in the campsite.
With the series launching this Sunday, fans only have a matter of days to wait for their annual I’m A Celebrity fix.
