EastEnders star Danny Dyer admits he checked into a psychiatric unit after feeling like a 'lost soul'

Danny Dyer has opened up on his time in a psychiatric unit which he checked himself into after realising he has male abandonment issues.

During an interview, the ex-EastEnders star, 45, recalled the time he flew across to South Africa and spent a month in a place he sometimes calls a 'psychiatric unit' and sometimes 'rehab'.
