They snuggled up together and giggled a lot as they tucked into their sushi dinner, seemingly oblivious to their fellow diners.

The couple, who got engaged last summer, only had eyes for each other at the Japanese restaurant as they kissed and Jacqueline leaned in to give him a hug.

Jacqueline, 23 and 24-year-old Dan had left toddler daughter Ella at home with family and were clearly enjoying their freedom for the night.

The couple got engaged last year but have been forced to defend their relationship after they cancelled plans to get hitched this summer.

But while some eyebrows were raised over their decision amid fears their relationship was on the rocks, Jacqueline said she and Dan – who has son Teddy by his ex-partner Megan Tomlin - postponed the wedding simply because they’d felt too rushed.

Speaking to OK magazine, she said: “We just ran out of time to plan everything. I thought we had ages to get stuff sorted, then all of a sudden it was March and we didn’t have anything booked.

“We’ve not found a venue that’s perfect for us yet. We want to wait and find somewhere that we love.

“Just because we’ve postponed the wedding, it doesn’t mean our relationship is falling apart – we’re still getting married! I hate that people view me as some poor, vulnerable girl who is so put upon by Daniel.

“I don’t need a man to make me happy. I’m with Dan because I love him, not because I feel trapped with him or need someone! I don’t feel trapped just because we have a daughter together. I would be absolutely fine on my own.”
