‘I love working with Dad'

Love Island favourite Dani Dyer on joining her father, Danny Dyer, in Walford

- ALISON SLADE

As we know, it’s all about ‘faaarmily’ on EastEnders, and that’s certainly the case this week, as Danny Dyer (Mick Carter) stars alongside his real-life daughter, Dani, who makes a guest appearance as a pregnant cabby called Jeanette.

Mick’s running late for pregnant wife Linda’s scan when he flags down Jeanette’s motor, but he gets more than he bargained for when Jeanette’s waters break.

We caught up with Love Island star Dani, 24, who recently became a mum to baby son Santiago, to find out about a very special ‘Bring your daughter to work’ day...

How did you react when you found out you were going to be in an episode of EastEnders?

I was really excited! I’ve always been such a massive fan of the show, so to be a part of it was such an amazing opportunity.
