Dani Dyer has revealed the twins she’s expecting with her footballer boyfriend Jarrod Bowen will be identical.
Dani and Jarrod announced on January 20 that they were expecting twins, but former Love Island star Dani, 26, only confirmed overnight that they aren’t fraternal.
What’s more, the soon-to-be mum-of-three shared a hilarious text message exchange between herself and her famous dad, Danny Dyer, that captured his incredible response to the news.
When Dani told her EastEnders star dad: ‘We’re having twins,’ he replied: ‘Hold up, are you f*****g joking me?’
His daughter – who already shares one-year-old son Santiago with ex-boyfriend Sammy Kimmence – responded: ‘Dad, I can’t believe it, they missed it on the scan and now it’s come up as identical twins.’
‘WTF. Oh my f*****g god,’ Danny hilarious fired back.

‘Anyone can have them,’ the star added. ‘Which I never knew until we found out.’
Dani announced the news of her pregnancy on social media earlier this month with a series of snaps.

In one, Santiago could be seen holding a blackboard showing the words ‘I’m going to be a big brother to twins’. The board also had two scans pinned to it.
Alongside the post, Dani wrote: ‘We have been keeping a little secret. Our little TWINS. So excited to meet our babies and watch santi be the best big brother.
‘The biggest surprise of our lives but feeling SO blessed. Our family is getting a lot bigger and we can’t wait.’
Dani shot to fame on the 2018 series of ITV’s hit show Love Island which she won with former partner Jack Fincham. They split up nine months after the show ended.
On January 23, 2021, Dani gave birth to Santiago with Sammy, who she dated before she starred on Love Island and later rekindled her romance with after splitting from Jack.
Dani later separated again from Santiago’s dad, who was jailed for three and a half years in 2021 for defrauding two pensioners out of more than £34,000.
