Bleary-eyed Dan Osborne stumbles out of hotel after-party with Christine McGuinness while Jac Jossa was in I’m A Celeb
BLEARY-EYED Dan Osborne was seen stumbling out of a hotel after-party with Christine McGuinness while his wife Jac Jossa was in the I’m A Celeb jungle.
The 2019 images have resurfaced after The Sun revealed reality stars Dan, 33, and Christine, 37, comforted one another amid their marital woes.
The pair sent flirty texts and model Christine said Dan had joined her for raucous nights out that helped lift her spirits after her split from radio and TV host husband Paddy.
The former Towie star was enjoying a night off parenting duties at London’s Butterfly Ball, mingling with fellow TV personalities – including Christine – while Jacqueline was Down Under.
Arriving on the red carpet, the father-of-three looked sharp in a black suit paired with a skinny tie.
As the night progressed, Dan appeared more relaxed, having undone a few buttons and removed his tie.
It seemed the influencer, who had been dismissed from Towie in 2015 following threats made to his ex-girlfriend, was enjoying himself at the event.
Later in the evening, a dishevelled Dan was spotted laughing and smiling as his friends propped him up and helped him walk on the pavement.
The bash also saw Dan mingle with other reality TV personalities, including Christine, Amy Childs, Imogen Thomas and Holly Hagan.
Inside, he was pictured enjoying a private chat with Chrstine – who, at one point, bursted into laughter at something he’d said.
At the time, reality star Dan was still building bridges with his actress wife over previous cheating claims.
EastEnders star Jacqueline and Christine are both represented by the InterTalent agency.
Dan is adamant nothing happened romantically between the pair, even suggesting that the text messages between them were “deep fakes or AI” when asked.
Earlier this year, The Sun revealed Dan had moved out of his and Jacqueline’s home and into a property he had bought behind his wife’s back.
Both temporarily removed their wedding rings.
It was the second time they had parted ways over the past few years.
Although it was claimed mum-of-two Jacqueline was furious, she later insisted the property purchase was for investment purposes only.
Christine, married to Paddy for 11 years — and who has won an award for her documentary about her autism struggles — recently pulled out of Channel 4 show, Celebs Go Dating.
In recent weeks, she has revealed she dated both men and women since she was a teenager.
Another friend added: “Christine is in a great place.
“She and Paddy are getting on well, everything is amicable, and she’s super-excited about the future.
“Life is good.
“Her friendship with Dan seems a lifetime ago.
“They don’t really speak now.”
‘Positive vibes’
Christine and Dan have been involved in charity football matches with Sellebrity Soccer together, including in February 2023.
She also managed Dan and other celebs in a game in February last year, in which he captained the team and scored in a 6-4 win on the Isle of Sheppey, Kent.
Proudly celebrating their victory, Christine wrote on online: “It was my positive vibes I was sending.
“My men never let me down, we only do winning.”
Dan has previously been hit by claims of cheating.
But a pal insisted this behaviour was all “very much in the past”.
Just months after fan favourite Jacqueline was crowned Queen of the I’m A Celeb Jungle, Dan admitted to infidelity.
He told The Sun he “takes full responsibility for being crap”.
He said: “I’ve made mistakes.
“I’ve done things I shouldn’t have done.
“Me and Jac have spoken about that and she has forgiven me.
“I know in the past I’ve denied things when they’re not true, then when something has been true, I probably just kept my mouth shut.
“I was a different person.”
