Dan Osborne has admitted he "made mistakes" in his marriage with Jacqueline Jossa.
The former ‘The Only Way Is Essex’ star has been married to Jacqueline – with whom he has Ella, five, and Mia, two – since 2017, and after rumours of a rocky romance have been circling the pair for months, Dan has now confessed to doing things he "shouldn’t have done" in the past.
However, despite his slip ups, Dan insisted Jacqueline has "forgiven" him, and the pair are working on rebuilding their relationship.
Speaking to The Sun newspaper, he said: "I’ve made mistakes, yeah. 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.
"It seems a cliché to say, but I was a young lad and on TV and stuff. I’m not saying you get big headed, but you get dug out for things anyway and then you’re feeling s*** in yourself.
"And then you get a bit of attention… then things are bad at home, so you go out and get p***** instead of working on fixing things.
"It’s a bunch of mistakes all built into one that made it bad. So, I take full responsibility for being crap."
Dan, 29, admitted he even told the former ‘EastEnders’ star he wouldn’t "blame" her if she called time on their romance.
He added: "There have been times where if it were the other way round, I would have left.
"I would have gone, so I’ve said to her ‘I wouldn’t blame you if you left me’. I’ve said that to Jac.
"I’ve said if it was the other way around I’d be gone, it’s not like I’ve been brushing off any mistakes that I’ve made. I’m fully aware of them and I’m aware that it ain’t right."
And now, Dan is hoping he and Jacqueline, 27, can move forward with their relationship, including renewing their wedding vows.
He explained: "We want to renew our vows and do it properly this time. If we look back at our wedding pictures, it was amazing but since then there’s been so many negative things, it’s sort of tarnished it, so we both would like to renew our vows and put the past behind us and do it properly from there.
"We’d go abroad or something small. We had a big wedding so we won’t do that again. I will buy her a new ring as her wedding ring broke."
