Dani Dyer has revealed the gender of her unborn twins. Former Love Island star Dani and West Ham footballer Jarrod Bowen will be welcoming two baby girls into their family later this year.
After announcing the pregnancy last month, Dani revealed the big secret to her Instagram followers. She has been dating Jarrod since 2021, and is already mum to son Santiago, two, with former partner Sammy Kimmence.
"Half way our little darlings," the pregnant star began when captioning a snap of herself cradling her growing bump. She continued: "A lot of you have been asking on the gender of our babies and we are so excited to share with you all that we are having identical twin girls."

The Mirror reports that TOWIE star Amy Child, who is also currently pregnant, was one of the first to comment on Dani's post. She wrote: "Aww how lovely Dani."
Dani and Jarrod announced their pregnancy news to fans last month. "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."
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.
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."
Jarrod and Dani’s romance followed the reality TV star parting ways with her conman ex Sammy Kimmence – who was sentenced to three years in jail in July 2021. The mum-of-one split with the father of her child after she discovered the full extent of his crimes in 2021 – which included posing as an investor and scamming pensioners out of thousands of pounds of their savings – after he had previously convinced her otherwise.
In November, Dani put her five-bedroom Essex £725k home on the market as she prepared to "move in with Jarrod Bowen". She had said at the time: "We are very back and forth between two houses."
She was asked if she thought Jarrod would pop the question soon. Dani replied: "Well that's down to him. I think I'm wife material to be honest."
Dani was previously in a relationship with fellow Love Island winner Jack Fincham but the pair split shortly after being crowned winners of the ITV2 show in 2018.
