Dani Dyer has shared her father's very Danny Dyer-esque reaction to the news that she is having twins.
The former Love Island winner confirmed that she is expecting with her footballer partner Jarrod Bowen last week, saying: "We have been keeping a little secret… Our little TWINS.
"So excited to meet our babies and watch Santi be the best big brother..," she added of her son Santiago. "The biggest surprise of our lives but feeling SO blessed.. our family is getting a lot bigger and we can’t wait."
Dani has now shared screenshots of WhatsApp conversations with her parents, her EastEnders star father Danny saying in response to the happy news: "Hold up. Are you f**king joking me?????"

He later added: "WTF. Oh my f**king god".
Her mother Joanne also had a hilarious response, writing to her daughter: "Can I have one?? OMG WOW".
Dani shares Santiago, who was born in January 2021, with former partner Sammy Kimmence.

Meanwhile, her father Danny exited EastEnders as Mick Carter over Christmas in dramatic scenes, which saw the character leap over a cliff to save Linda Carter.
Danny recently opened up about filming the big moment, telling What to Watch: "We had a wetsuit on under our clobber, and I've got to say the stunt people came in and they were amazing.
"We had the water tank stuff as well which they filled with broccoli juice. It's like a bath temperature so it's quite nice. My last scene I was all tearful and I was all emotional. I smelt of broccoli, it sort of softened the blow."
