Jacqueline Jossa shares ‘chav’ throwback to herself as a teen before finding fame in EastEnders
JACQUELINE Jossa has given fans a rare glimpse into her teenage years, as she shared a throwback snap of herself before finding fame.
The EastEnders star, 28, posted a photograph from her former "chav" days while posing with a pal.
In the throwback shot, Jacqueline was seen cuddling up to a friend as she sported a pink jumper and hooped earrings.
The actress shared the snap as she took part in an Instagram trend, which sees users post pictures related to a prompt given by their followers.
As part of the challenge, Jacqueline also posted a glam photo of herself in a purple-lit room, which showed her at her lowest.
Captioning the post, she detailed: "Just before going into the jungle."
However, she soon went on to win the ITV show and was crowned Queen of the jungle.
Earlier this week, the former soap star opened up on her goals for the year ahead.
Posing alongside her daughters on Instagram, Jac explained: "Okay I have literally been in pjs for 3 weeks straight.. bath and then a new pair.. send help.
"I need to try and get back to some sort of life. Had a chilled Xmas and not been on much."
Jac went on: "How is everyone, 2021 is no different is it... either way happy new year and all that.
"Alsooooo I had a revelation.. I eat like it’s this Xmas week every single week which is why I don’t gain weight over Xmas... I really gotta get into it this year, eat better and move more.
"Please say 2021 is the year If not anything else I get my ass into gear. Ffs."
As well as overhauling her diet and fitness, Jac and husband Dan Osborne are also moving into a new home.
