Danny Dyer has made an unexpected dig at Jack Fincham over his split from daughter Dani.

The Love Island winners broke up just six months after winning the ITV2 dating show in 2018 after a rocky relationship.

Speaking on The Jonathan Ross Show, Danny claimed his daughter's new boyfriend Sammy Kimmence "seems proper".

The EastEnders actor then turned his attention to Dani's "other geezer", Jack, who he had welcomed into the family.

He also confessed he didn't want to become a grandfather anytime soon – but acknowledged that his daughter and her new man "have a roll about".


Discussing Dani's relationship with boyfriend Sammy, Danny said: “It’s weird, I was on here last time talking about her other geezer [ Jack Fincham ].

"She’s moved on, it’s all lovely, she is loved up to the eyeballs. This geezer seems proper.

"[Jack Fincham] seemed alright, listen, things happen. She is cracking on now though, it’s all good."


On whether he’d like to be made a Grandfather any time soon, Danny said: "No! I don’t think she [Dani] is maternal in that sense. She’s very ambitious. She wants to crack on and I think she’ll have chavs maybe in her thirties.

"I’m not going to encourage my daughter to have any kids, it’s madness because then you sort of think about her having a roll about… We know it goes on but I’m not going to encourage it!"

Danny, who is also dad to daughter Sunnie, 12, and son Artie, 5, admitted the kids pull him up on his infamously bad language and swearing


"I’m in EastEnders, I’ve got my own game show so when I get home I’ve got a serious case of tourettes, I’ve got to get it out of my system," confessed Danny.

"I can’t do it at work and they [my kids] pull me on it. They’ll go ‘Dad, you’re swearing again!’ I’ll be watching football, the other night I was watching the results come in for the cup and we lost and I was upset [and swore].

"They are well brought up kids, they go to good schools, they are articulate."

Danny also revealed he spent the weekend at a yoga retreat and even demonstrated a pose to the studio audience.

The EastEnders star said: "I went to a yoga retreat last weekend… I do it with my missus. She got me into it. Bikram I started with, 90 minutes in the heat.

"It was proper hard but I’ve got a nutty brain so I need to calm it down a bit. I do a bit of meditation and it sort of turns the nuttiness down a bit.

"I think everyone should do a bit of meditation, ten minutes a day, I think it’s an important thing. Yoga is a form of meditation in a sense.

"My favourite yoga is Yin Yoga, you just lay on your back. You lay on your mat and you hold your pose for five minutes.

There was also time for some EastEnders chat as Danny opened up on his character's upcoming storyline.

Mick Carter has been struggling with panic attacks and Danny is keen to reach out to a lot of viewers.

He said: "He is struggling with anxiety attacks and I think this mental health thing, it’s very prominent at the moment, especially in men.

"I know as a human being we deal with anxiety, there wasn’t even a word for it 15 years ago, ‘anxiety’, no one really knew what it was.

"That idea of just impending doom, you don’t quite know why so they’ve given Mick this storyline where he’s trying to be the glue that holds everything together when actually behind-the-scenes he can’t breathe properly and he thinks he’s having a heart attack and it’s trying to play it right.

"I’ve never had a panic attack in real life. I have had anxiety but to try and portray it… It’s reached a lot of people."
