At the time of reporting, at least one person was confirmed as dead in the worst storm in Dubai in 75 years.

Flooding has wiped out the UAE's millionaire playground - with Dan capturing the scenes from their hotel room in a dramatic Instagram video.

Now a source has told us: "Dan and Jacqueline took the kids on a break to Dubai and it's ended up being a nightmare.

"They've been trapped by the storms and are concerned about getting back home. The airport is chaos.

"They've hunkered down at their hotel and are hoping for the best."

It's not the first time their getaway has been scuppered by the conditions.

The source added to us: "It's like history repeating itself for them too.

"Last time they went to Dubai just the two of them in 2019 they got caught up in a big storm too."

Dan took to his Instagram Stories to post an update showing the family holed up in their hotel.

He enjoyed a cuddle with his youngest daughter Mia, aged five, as they relaxed on the bed, with him captioning the sweet snap which he captioned with the words: "Daddy's girl."

Yet his son Teddy, aged 10, looked less than impressed as he saw the conditions outside.

Meanwhile, Jacqueline and her eldest daughter Ella aged nine, were nowhere to be seen.

WEATHER WARNING

According to state-fun WAM news agency it is the bigger than any ever previously recorded in the UAE.

Inbound flights were cancelled at Dubai International Airport and others were diverted elsewhere - and DXB is still affected today.

The transport hub's X page wrote at 9am local time: "We advise you NOT to come to the airport, unless absolutely necessary.

"Flights continue to be delayed and diverted. Please check your flight status directly with your airline.

"We are working hard to recover operations as quickly as possible in very challenging conditions."

BIKINI BABE

The floods came just hours before the EastEnders showed off her weight loss as she revealed her latest career move.

The Lauren Branning star has released her latest swimwear collection with fast-fashion retailer In The Style.

Jacqueline revealed her real dress size - this being size 12 - as she modelled a zebra-print two-piece from her range.

She recently showed off her weight loss during a trip to the gym, where she revealed her fitness secret.

Jacqueline has previously told how she has started a new fitness routine involving various workouts - but has yet to detail to fans what these exercises include.

She explained: "I need to know what I'm doing is correct and right for me before I share it with you guys because I don't want to be messing with your lives."

Even keeping up her efforts on a family holiday, she swapped out sun loungers for the gym.
