Danny Dyer has been captured proudly singing an X-rated song about his daughter Dani at a football match.
The actor and presenter, 48, shares three children with his wife Joanne Mas – including TV personality Dani.
The 29-year-old rose to fame appearing on reality series Survival of the Fittest in 2018, before going on to win Love Island alongside Jack Fincham later that year.
She’s since gone on to appear Celebrity MasterChef, Celebrity Gogglebox, Strictly Come Dancing and Celebrity SAS: Who Dares Wins, as well as co-presented the MTV series True Love or True Lies and the podcast Sorted with the Dyers with her dad.
Following her break-up with Jack the same year they won Love Island, she then got back with her ex Sammy Kimmence, with whom she later welcomed son Santiago with. She then later started dating West Ham United footballer Jarrod Bowen in 2021 – giving birth to their twin daughters Star and Summer in 2023, before marrying her partner two years later.
However, this weekend Danny – a life-long West Ham fan – was spotted belting out a song about his daughter during the team’s FA Cup defeat to Leeds.
‘Bowen’s on fire, and he’s s******g Dani Dyer,’ he was seen declaring.
Dani had previously expressed embarrassment over the X-rated tune.
‘Dani is really embarrassed about the whole thing. Her dad Danny is a huge West Ham fan, so she hates the idea that he has to hear about her when he watches games,’ a source previously told The Sun.
But in more recent times, Dani herself has weighed in on the cheeky chant.
Speaking on the Great Company podcast in October, she explained how her son has a sweet version he likes to sing, but that her dad actually liked getting the chant started at West Ham games.
‘Do you know my little boy says “kissing”. He sings it in the back of my car sometimes,’ she said.
‘I’m like that’s your mother you’re speaking about! My dad sings it, he thinks it’s brilliant. He says he starts the chant off sometimes! Yeah alright mate…”
Meanwhile, Danny has previously labelled the song ‘romantic’.
Over the years Danny – who is a life-long West Ham fan – has also expressed his love for his son-in-law.
‘I think I’m in love with him. He plays for West Ham and he’s unbelievable, this guy. He comes in my house, I take his shoes off for him and I give him the remote control, and I say, “Mate, this is your house now”. He’s an incredible person. I can’t wait to give Dani away, but I still think that he’s marrying the wrong Danny Dyer,’ he told Closer last year.
‘Honestly, I feel sorry for my other daughter, who’s nearly 18, because she could never bring home a man to match what Jarrod’s done for me. She could bring home a heart surgeon or somebody who cures cancer and I’ll go, “Well, really? Jarrod’s got the winning goal in a European final”. I couldn’t have written a better script. He’s just such a beautiful man.’
However this weekend Dani’s ex Jack has admitted that things couldn’t be ‘any worse’ for him, having ended up homeless.
The influencer entered rehab for the second time earlier this year after relapsing with drugs and alcohol. He had just £20 to his name, blowing millions on his addictions.
During an appearance on Good Morning Britain this month Jack explained that he ‘did a detox of benzodiazepines and pregabalin, prescription drugs’, for six weeks, but he ‘knew’ it needed to be done.
He’s now revealed he’s felt unsupported by his family after being discharged and is now staying in a hotel with his dog while trying to figure out ‘what to do’.
‘I’m just gonna reset and work out what to do and where I wanna live,’ he said.
Despite the current uncertainty about his living situation, Jack said he was looking forward.
‘There’s been a few struggles along the way, and look, I’m starting again from zero,’ he acknowledged. ‘I’m a very optimistic person, and I just think it can’t get any worse than this. I’m gonna do my acting and get back into TV work; I’m gonna do all the things I said I was gonna do.’
