The couple, who are parents to young daughters Ella, 11, and Mia, seven, exchanged vows in 2017 after dating for four years, have suffered a host of issues, including accusations of infidelity levelled at Dan.
The lothario, who also has son Teddy, 12, from a previous relationship, is now said to be shocked that Jacqueline has fully severed their marriage.
Insiders told The Sun: 'After all Jac’s been through, she’s finally had enough. They’ve been living separate lives all this year and she’s over it. There’s only so many times she can put herself through living in limbo and taking him back....

On Wednesday, it was revealed that the EastEnders actress, 33, has insisted on a divorce from former The Only Way Is Essex regular Dan, 34, after 'mentally checking out' of their tumultuous relationship for good
'She has mentally checked out of the relationship for the first time and Dan has panicked. He’s worried the grass isn’t greener and has had the shock of his life that he’s pushed Jac too far this time.'
Jacqueline first met Dan at an awards ceremony in 2013 and romance rumours soon began to fly while Dan's ex Megan Tomlin was still pregnant with their son Teddy.
Two years later Dan popped the question during a romantic getaway to Greece and they tied the knot two years later at Cheshire Manor House.
In 2015 they also welcomed their first daughter together, Ella Selina and their second daughter Mia was born in 2018.
Yet over the years their turbulent marriage has faced numerous difficulties, among them multiple claims of infidelity levelled at Dan, who has previously been accused of cheating on his wife with former Love Island contestants Gabby Allen and Alexandra Cane, engaging in an alleged threesome and has himself admitted to being unfaithful.
The pair split eight months into Jacqueline's second pregnancy after enduring a 'string of heated rows'.
The Daily Mail exclusively revealed at the time that the star had contacted a mystery girl to quiz her over an alleged night of passion with her estranged husband.

Jacqueline had heard on the grapevine that Dan had allegedly had sex with the woman during the summer prior, just months after their fairytale wedding.
In her message, the actress demanded to know if there was truth in the matter, insisting that she won't be angry with her if there is.
Speaking to The Daily Mail, the woman claimed she had a one-night stand with Dan after being mutual friends for a while, and meeting by chance in an Essex bar.
She alleged that the former TOWIE star told her that he was 'on a break from Jacqueline and things weren't working out' when they met.
The woman said she felt 'surprised, shocked, and awful' when she heard that Dan was still with Jacqueline and had been consumed by guilt, so felt compelled to tell her story after Jacqueline messaged her.
The star confirmed Dan would still be present at the birth as she opened up about the status of her relationship in an interview on Loose Women.
She explained: 'I'm good, honestly. I think, when stuff goes on at home, it's not normal for it to be everywhere.

'But it's not necessarily true or the reasons why you're not getting on at the moment. That's all I really want to say but I'm all good.'
Dan was first linked to Gabby after they were spotted getting close on a yacht in Marbella in 2018.
After a fan commented they looked 'cosy', Dan hit back, writing: 'Cosy with another woman. I am speaking and laughing with a friend. But of course a man and and a woman can’t be friends in this day and age can they. Also you don’t know me, don’t know how I "act".'
Gabby's then boyfriend Marcel Somerville also accused Gabby of cheating on him with Dan, however Gabby denied the claims insisting she was '100% faithful' throughout their relationship.
At the time The Sun claimed that Dan sent 'flirty messages' to his former Celebrity Big Brother co-star Gabby - months after the pair vehemently denied claims that they'd had an illicit tryst.
Then, in March 2019 rumours began to circulate that he had kissed Love Island's Alexandra Cane in a nightclub, which they both denied.
