Danny Dyer’s daughter Sunnie sets sights on acting career as she follows in dad's footsteps

Danny Dyer 's teenage daughter Sunnie has set her sights on following in her famous dad's footsteps.

Sunnie, 15, is hoping to become a famous actor just like her dad, who recently waved goodbye to his role in EastEnders as Mick Carter after nine years on the BBC One soap.

The younger sister of Love Island winner, Dani Dyer, opened up about her exciting future plans in a candid Instagram Q&A on Thursday.

Sunnie, who is the middle child of couple Danny and his wife Joanne Mas, said that she hopes to follow in her dad's footsteps and one day have her name in lights and possibly make it big on the silver screen.

Aspiring actress Sunnie's confession comes after she starred alogside her former EastEnders star dad in a Kate Nash music video last August.

Household name Danny used his acting skills in the exciting project and even made it a family affair by starring alongside his daughter.

Singer Kate Nash announced that she would be releasing the song by posting a short clip to her Instagram page which featured the actor and his daughter.

Fans were ecstatic that she would be releasing new music but were equally as excited to find out some familiar faces would be in the music video.

Danny left EastEnders after nine years as Queen Vic landlord Mick Carter.

Despite waving goodbye to Albert Square, Danny has multiple other projects up his sleeve including his podcast with his other daughter Dani, Sorted With The Dyers.

Danny also has plans to return to the West End stage following his sellout run alongside Martin Freeman in Harold Pinter play The Dumb Waiter in 2019.

The star opened up about how his daughter Sunnie could potentially be the most successful out of the family.

He said: "She is going to be the biggest star out of all of us. I will tell you that right now. She is only 15 but she is the most talented by far."

The actor was also recently photographed on set with David Tennant working on a new project.

Danny has been filming for upcoming Disney+ series Rivals, based on the Jilly Cooper novel of the same name, which is part of the book series the Rutshire Chronicles.
