She teased a very special announcement 👀
Reigning Queen of the Jungle Jacqueline Jossa delighted her fans on Sunday (8th November) afternoon, when she teased she would be announcing some big today (Monday 9th November), leaving fans wondering.
Whilst some guessed she could be launching a new hair product, or a new clothing range, a lot of her fans guessed she could be pregnant with her third child, but the former EastEnders actress was quick to shut down the claims.
Admitting it was a very popular guess, Jac wrote, 'Lots of these... NOPE 👎... JUST CHUBBY 🤣🤣❤️'. (sic)
