Dani Dyer pregnant with TWINS as Love Island star shares glowing snaps

Love Island star Dani Dyer announced she is expecting twins with boyfriend Jarrod Bowen.

The TV personality, who has a son named Santiago, took to Instagram to share the exciting news with fans.

"We have been keeping a little secret..." she said. "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."

In the snap, her son Santi held up a sign which read: "I'm going to be a big brother to twins."

Another picture had Dani and footballer Jarrod facing each other as he placed his hands on her waist.

She wore a tight grey dress that showed off her growing baby bump.

Jarrod rocked a simple white t-shirt and grey shorts.

In one picture, Dani's growing bump was the focus as Jarrod wrapped his hands around her and her belly.

Friends and fans were delighted with the news and took to the comment section to congratulate her.

"Omg congratulations my love!!!!! So happy for you," Shaughna Phillips said.

Comedian Katherine Ryan commented: "Ayayaaaaaye congratulations."

Amy Childs added: "Congratulations darling, twin mum club," while Samira Mighty posted: "OH WOWWWWWWW. CONGRATULATIONS MY LOVE."

Kaz Crossley commented: "Wow congratulations beautiful."

Jarrod and Dani first went public with their relationship in December 2021 after finding love together.

Their romance came after Dani split from the father of her son Sammy Kimmence after he went to prison for conning elderly pensioners out of £34,000 in 2021.

Dani discussed the struggles she faced after giving birth to Santiago with BBC's Tiny Happy People back in April.

She explained that she has relied on the support of her EastEnders star dad Danny Dyer, 45, and mum Joanne Mas, 45, since becoming a single mother.

Dani said: "The way they have been there for me is honestly just such a dream. There have been some long nights, if Santi's not been well, where I really struggled and I've just needed to have a chat or a sleep in the afternoon. And they've been there for me. Knowing I've got them, I am blessed with that."

Dani first rose to fame when she competed on Love Island back in 2018, after having a glimpse into the spotlight thanks to her dad Danny Dyer being a well-known actor.

She won the series with then-boyfriend Jack Fincham but the pair ended up splitting nine months after leaving the villa.
