The 27-year-old actress starred as Lauren Branning in the long-running soap between 2010 and 2018, and she's admitted she'd happily return to the show at "the right time".

Jacqueline - who has Ella, five, and Mia, two, with Dan Osborne - said: "The door has always been left open and I would go back at the right time – it would have to be the right time for both of us [her and Dan]."

Jacqueline is also keen to try her hand at a different kind of acting role in the future.

She said: "I’d like to do something slightly different. Maybe a comedy or a period drama, or being a firefighter or a policewoman. I’m up for anything."

Despite her own success, Jacqueline is open-minded about the career paths that her kids will follow.

The soap star insisted she'd be happy if her girls become scientists rather than actresses.

She told OK! magazine: "I have no clue - they’re only five and two. It’s lovely not knowing - they could be scientists for all I know! They can be whatever they want to be."

Meanwhile, Jacqueline also revealed she's keen to reunite with some of her former campmates from 'I'm a Celebrity...Get Me Out of Here!'.

The former 'EastEnders' star is particularly keen to visit Caitlyn Jenner in Los Angeles when coronavirus restrictions are eased.

She shared: "Everyone is living their best lives and we haven’t been able to meet up for seven months because of the coronavirus. I can’t wait to see them all. I texted Caitlyn this morning."

She added: "I’ll be on the next flight – when we’re allowed to go!"
