With EastEnders actress Jacqueline Jossa being written out of the soap by bosses, it's no surprise that rumours are rife of what she could be working on next.

It's that time of year when more or less every celebrity and reality star is rumoured to be starring on popular ITV show I'm A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here, and it seems it's no different for 24-year-old Jacqueline.

Despite fans getting excited by the rumours, Jacqueline's rep has shut them down by saying, "Jacqueline is absolutely not doing I'm A Celebrity."

Earlier this month fans were left in shock when it was confirmed that Jacqueline and Lorna Fitzgerald, who play on-screen sisters Lauren and Abi Branning, will be written out of the show.

At the time of the announcement, a spokesperson for the show said, "We can confirm that Jacqueline and Lorna will be leaving EastEnders. They have both been wonderful to work with and we wish them all the best for the future."

Jacqueline, who has been on the soap for seven years, took to her Instagram page to reference the news. Sharing a photo of herself and Lorna on set, Jacqueline captioned the shot with a heart emoji.

Jacqueline's husband and former The Only Way Is Essex star Dan Osbourne also shared a message about the news. Taking to Twitter, Dan wrote, 'The show will miss these 2 characters.. You are so talented babe and I'm proud of you. This is just the beginning of your career 🙌🏼❤️'.

It is now being reported than Jacqueline does have something in the pipeline, with an insider telling Now Magazine, "She already has lots on the table to explore."

Meanwhile, the actress is set to continue her role on EastEnders until her dramatic exit later in the year.

After returning to the soap following her maternity leave for her daughter Ella, the mum-of-one shared an honest message earlier in the year, expressing how hard she finds it leaving her daughter to go to work.

Sharing a cute photo of herself and Ella, she wrote, 'Me and my beautiful angel. Miss her so much when I'm working! Btw I know I look really tired and worn down! O well I'm a working mum always busy and try to fit as much in as I can! So i am tired a lot and I love it. I love her. However tired and stressed I feel, she takes it away in seconds with her beautiful smile. Ella is Truly incredible and I love being a mum so much, lucky I love my job too! 💜💜 #iknowilooksleepy #iam #mumlife #farm #darling'.

Jacqueline welcomed her daughter Ella with Dan back in February 2015. The actress is also step-mum to Dan's son Teddy, who he shares with his ex-girlfriend.

Although Jacqueline's rep has denied reports she's entering the 2017 I'm A Celebrity jungle, many other celebrities are still being rumoured.
