Danny Dyer admits he's 'petrified' ahead of daughter Dani Dyer having twins

Danny Dyer has spoken about being a grandfather ahead of eldest daughter Dani Dyer welcoming twins later this year.

The actor, 45, is looking forward to the new arrivals in the coming months. It had been announced to fans earlier this year that his daughter Dani Dyer, 26, is pregnant.

Love Island winner Dani is currently expecting twins with her partner, footballer Jarrod Bowen, 26. She's already mum to son Santiago, two, from a previous relationship.

Her dad Danny spoke about their family whilst appearing as a guest on the next episode of The Jonathan Ross Show, which is set to be broadcast in just a couple of days time.

He told host Jonathan Ross, 62: "I'm a grandfather. He's beautiful, he's such a lovely little boy. [Dani's] pregnant again with twins. Identical girls. So I'm going to have three grandkids under three by f***ing May."

He further commented: "It's petrifying. I am over the moon. It's weird when your kid's pregnant. You worry about them. It's a miracle the whole thing, especially with twins".

Danny teased: "I thought, when you become a grandfather, your kids have grown up and f***ed off. Whereas I'm still bringing up a 9-year-old son, I've got a 15-year-old daughter and grandkids."

The guest also spoke about footballer Jarrod, 26, who plays for West Ham United. Former EastEnders actor Danny is an avid supporter of the football team himself.

He said: "West Ham until I die. You can't tell them who to fall in love with … all of a sudden she's brought home a West Ham player. I couldn't have hand picked a better human being".

Further sharing his thoughts on Jarrod, the father-of-three said during his appearance on the chat show: "He's beautiful. He comes round and I get all starstruck."

The episode also features actors Evangeline Lilly, 43, and Will Sharpe, 36. And model Leomie Anderson, 30, comedian Maisie Adam, 29, and band The 1975 are guests too.

The Jonathan Ross Show will air Saturday (February 25) on ITV and ITVX from 9.40pm.
