Danny Dyer WILL star on TV show with daughter Dani after Gogglebox glory

They've proved to be TV gold together

Love Island winner Dani Dyer’s new reality show with Jack Fincham will star her famous dad after all, according to reports – despite her claim the EastEnders favourite would not be involved.

The Sun claims mum Jo should also turn up in scenes shot for the ITVBe series, with fans sure to be delighted at seeing the whole Dyer family appearing together.

An TV insider is quoted as telling the newspaper: “The series will predominantly be about Dani and Jack and their romance after leaving the villa – but it didn’t make sense for the people closest to them not to make an appearance.

“Danny has welcomed Jack into the family with open arms and always supports both him and Dani whenever he can.

“It’s been no different with the show – viewers can definitely expect to see him and Jo on screen.”

Titled Jack and Dani: Life After Love Island, Dani previously told Metro.co.uk Danny would play no part in the show.

“Jack and I are filming something for ITVBe at the moment while we are being followed around by cameras,” she said.

“My family aren’t involved so there’s no big Kardashian type show coming up with the Dyers, sorry to disappoint.

“Don’t think my dad is ready for that yet!”

However, Dani did suggest the whole Dyer clan might show their faces when she revealed talks had taken place about making it work.

She said on Capital FM’s Breakfast Show: “It’s the whole family.

“Oh my God I’m gonna give out some spoilers there! Like The Osbournes. It could possible potentially happen next year, yeah.”

Dani later gave an update to the radio station, saying: “We’ve just sort of started. It’s exciting. It is hard work though, it’s sort of back to all that again, ain’t it? I’m like ‘Oh no Dan, here we go again’.

“It is weird. Me nan loves it though.”

Meanwhile, back in July, Jo told The Sun’s Bizarre Magazine they were considering an offer, but that any deal would depend on Danny’s existing commitments with EastEnders.

“We’ve been offered a reality show, but Danny is contracted at the BBC,” she said.

“We have always joked about it.

“People do say we need a show in our house because there’s always a drama.”
