Danny Dyer cried watching his daughter on ‘Love Island’.
The ‘EastEnders’ actor got "a bit choked up" as he saw Dani Dyer struggle when she learned her on-screen partner Jack Fincham had cheated on past girlfriends, prompting her to dump him briefly, as he wished she’d found someone better.
Danny’s wife, Joanne Mas, told the Sunday People newspaper: "He got a bit choked up when she was sad about finding out Jack was a t**t. That’s his daughter and they have a very close bond."
She also confirmed that her spouse "wasn’t happy" when he learned about 22-year-old Dani’s plans to take part in the saucy reality show, but he’s feeling better about it after seeing a few episodes.
She said: "Danny wasn’t happy at first when she was going into the show but at the moment he thinks Dani has done well with her behaviour."
However, the ‘Football Factory’ star does want to see his daughter be less emotional.
Jo said: "He wishes that Dani could be a bit like me when it comes to emotions, as he thinks I’m hard work and I don’t give anything away. Basically not a melt."
Jo isn’t particularly impressed by any of the guys in the villa.
She said: "The weird thing is there are three million good looking boys her age in the UK – and these don’t seem to be the elite… The boys are young and they don’t have a clue."
Meanwhile, it seems the 40-year-old actor has decided to embrace Dani’s decision to join the controversial programme.
He shared a photo with 11-year-old daughter Sunnie on Instagram and quipped: "Me and the wife have come to accept the fact that we was put on the planet to reproduce Love Islanders. Oh well…embrace it…good luck in 2028 Sunnie #doubledoubleproud #TeamDani (sic)"
