Danny Dyer, a TV hardman, expressed his joy over his “beautiful” grandchildren and hopes for a great grandfather in a soft way in real life.

Danny, 47, is known for being a no nonsense character in many TV show and films including The Football Factory and new film Marching Powder where he plays Jack an ageing, Class A drug loving hooligan.

Danny responded, “I have three grandchildren and we have twins,” when asked about his grandchildren. They are known as The Terribles. I love them so much because they are nearly two and are so beautiful.

“They’re obsessed with my dogs arse for some reason. But no, they are a gift, and I’m so lucky to have them. I had kids at 18, so you get into your late 40s, and you become a grandfather. I might even make it to a great grandfather.”

Dani and Sunnie, Danny’s daughters, and Arty, his son. Santiago, four, and Summer and Star, twins, are Dani’s three grandchildren. He is also his grandfather.

Speaking to Bella magazine, Danny also spoke of his delight at finally being acknowledged for his acting. For many years his football films and TV shows were looked down on but his appearance in Disney+ drama Rivals has seen public and critical acclaim.

For his role as businessman Freddie Jones in the series based on Jilly Cooper’s books, he is up for a Broadcasting Press Guild Award for Best Actor. Expect more nominations for awards.

Danny continued, “I’ve been accepted by the elite.” I am shocked by it.

“Everyone adored Freddie a little bit. Everyone assumes that I’ve been around for 30 years, making me a really good actor all of a sudden. Over the years, I think I’ve accomplished some good things.

“Freddie has turned into a heartthrob.” When Freddie is a kind man, kindness suddenly turns sexy in him.

“And I don’t think we’ve had that for a long time. I can say that because I’ve got daughters, and I know some of the twats they’ve brought home. They always want the boys. That’s unobtainable and naughty. The character of Rupert is the sexiest man in the world but the women seem to be down for Freddie, who’s a bit cute and shy and sees women for who they are.

I have a bad wig and a nutty moustache. It has a striking appearance. Simply put, I think it’s fantastic. I’m so pleased to be a part of it.

Danny also said he would have been up for returning to EastEnders for the 40th anniversary but was not invited. He thinks he left the soap at the right time, saying: “I think when you end up with Janine, you’ve got to get out because you know she’s going to murder you eventually you.”

Real reason Meghan Markle was ‘asked to stay away’ from late Queen’s deathbed by King Charles

In a rumored call to Harry, King Charles reportedly picked up the phone and informed him that Meghan should not accompany him to Balmoral during the Queen’s final moments. He did so for a very significant reason.

The royal family rushed to Balmoral to be by the late Queen’s side in the final moments of her life. But not everyone was reportedly welcome. King Charles allegedly made the difficult decision to ask Meghan Markle to stay away and allow Prince Harry to visit his grandmother on his own, with the understanding that Princess Kate had also been asked to remain at home.

Robert Hardman claimed that Kate had chosen to stay away rather than actually being asked to do so in his biography Charles III: New King, New Court, and The Inside Story. The Princess, in the eyes of Hardman, chose to remain in England to care for her three children, George, Charlotte, and Louis.

They were scheduled to begin their new school, Lambrook, on the same day as the Queen passed away. Unintentionally, Kate’s choice opened up King Charles’s path. Charles wanted the royals to concentrate on their final goodbyes and avoid petty infighting at the time because he still believed his mother still had days to live and not hours.

According to the 2024 book, he had simply wanted Meghan to avoid family conflict. Harry himself wrote about the disappointment his father had when he learned Meghan wouldn’t be able to attend Balmoral.

In his tell-all memoir Spare , he claimed: “He said I was welcome at Balmoral, but he didn’t want… her. He started to lay out his reason, which was nonsensical, and disrespectful, and I wasn’t having it.” Harry said he retorted firmly to his father’s comments about Meghan, saying: “Don’t ever speak about my wife that way…He stammered, apologetic, saying he simply didn’t want a lot of people around. No other wives were coming, Kate wasn’t coming, he said, therefore Meg shouldn’t. Then that’s all you needed to say.”

The Queen peacefully passed away at 15:10 on 8 September. Of her family members, only Charles, Camilla and Princess Anne were able to see her before she died. Fortuitously, the siblings were both already in Scotland, having carried out events in the country earlier in the week.

But only Anne was present when their mother slipped away. Charles had briefly stepped away from her bedside to clear his head and had gone out to gather mushrooms. He received the news that she had died as he was driving back to Balmoral when his most senior aide took a call. Charles pulled over and was addressed for the first time as ‘Your Majesty’ – signalling he was now King.

Louise Redknapp ‘almost gave up’ after reaching rock bottom following split from Jamie

Following her split from her ex-husband Jamie Redknapp, Louise Redknapp revealed she “almost gave up” after reaching “the lowest a human could get.” Without her two children, she acknowledged that she would have reached a much lower point.

The 50-year-old footballer, who is dating a new man, split from Jamie from Liverpool and England in 2017. The couple, who have two sons, Beau, 16, and Charley, 20, announced their separation in September 2017 and were divorced that year as well.

Jamie married model Frida Andersson in 2021 despite the fact that the Naked musician had previously admitted to skipping dating for almost six years in an effort to concentrate on her children. Raphael’s son Raphael is the parents of the Sky Sports pundit and his second wife, Frida, who is also the mother of four children from her previous union with Jonathan Lourie.

Louise revealed on Fearne Cotton’s Happy Place podcast that if it weren’t for her children, she would have reached a much lower point in her life. She continued, “I just, I think I would have just given up,” adding, “If I didn’t have my kids, I just, I think, I.” I do, in fact. I believe I was simply aware that my children needed me because they were my everything.

Fearne discussed reaching the “lowest a person could get” (Fearne Cotton’s Happy Place/YouTube) in an open letter.

She discussed how the public’s scrutiny of her marriage’s breakdown affected her during the conversation. But, she continued, “I can honestly say, when you’re going through something so personal in your own turmoil in your own way, and then you get the barrage of judgment and nastiness.”

“I never realized how cruel and vile people are.” My mind was blown. Whatever had happened in our life was private, which I do believe you are entitled to no matter what, and I was going through a lot as it happened. I was trying to be strong for my kids. And God, I was completely breaking because I was such a bad guy.

Jamie and Louise left Getty Images Europe in 2017.

Beyond what I believed a human could break, and I’ve been trying to be a mother all along. And it was the same way every time I went out, even though I tried to put on a brave face and do things that weren’t right. I thought everything I did was completely incorrect.

Louise and Drew Michaels, both of whom we love, last year. She told the Loose Women panel last year that she had been single for “a really long time” and that it was “beautiful” to meet someone who makes me feel so happy. “I’m very happy, he’s great, lovely, it’s really nice,” she continued.

A beauty editor’s review of St Tropez’s new fast-developing Sunlit Skin Bronzing Tint

It’s now simpler than ever to avoid the sun damage that comes with real tanning thanks to the high-tech fake tan innovations that are available in stores.

The most recent innovation from St. Tropez, which dropped this month, has the potential to revolutionize how you self-tan your skin. The St. Tropez Sunlit Skin Self Tan Express retails for £29 full-price on Cult Beauty and Boots, but Asos is currently selling it for £21.75 during a new-season beauty sale.

The “first-of-its-kind” facial tanner is intended to do more than just give you a glow. This sleeveless beauty claims to instantly impart a pearl-like sheen with an hour-long, luminous tan before turning into a long-lasting tan. Wear it on bare skin, over make-up, or wherever you like.

You can see where you’re applying it precisely because it’s tinted, which is ideal for tantouring (yes, that’s both contouring and tanning in one). For sculpted definition that lasts for days, simply brush it across your temples, cheekbones, and jawline. Your skin stays plump and radiant thanks to the quick-dry, no-rinse formula.

You can apply the product every three days to maintain your glow as an elevated substitute for bronzing drops. St Tropez suggests pairing it with the Tantouring Brush ($20), which is designed to give you a precise, sculpted finish for the ultimate application.

Zoe’s opinion of St. Tropez Sunlit Skin Bronzing Tint + Tan is shared.

Zoe Cripps shares her thoughts on the St. Tropez Sunlit Skin Bronzing Tint + Tan.

Pros

  • quick drying
  • developing quickly
  • A useful product application precision nozzle
  • A pleasant, non-biscuity scent
  • Good for skin that is sensitive
  • features beneficial skin care ingredients like hyaluronic acid

Cons

  • A high price tag for a bottle that is quite small
  • Although the brush is meant to be used to achieve the “best” results, the price does not include it.
  • You must be very quick to blend it because it has a runny texture that drys very quickly.
  • didn’t immediately give my dry skin an even, uniform color.
  • Since it is a light tan, medium skin tones may not experience as noticeable results.

St. Tropez’s new facial tanner had my high hopes, but honestly, it’s almost the dream product with a few minor flaws. Let’s get to the good stuff: it quickly dries, develops in 1-3 hours, and has a precise nozzle, which makes application much simpler (especially for something this liquidy). I had no irritation at all because the scent is so pleasant—none of the old-fashioned biscuity fake tan smell. Additionally, hyaluronic acid is a fantastic addition to skin care products.

The drawbacks are now. The bottle is fairly small for the price, and it seems a little cheeky that the brush, which is meant to be used separately for the best results, is available. You must work at lightning speed to blend it properly, especially since the immediate tint wasn’t on my dry skin because the formula is quite runny and dries quickly. Despite that, the tan looked much better once it started to develop. My tan did appear more even after I washed my face in the morning (I stayed on it overnight).

I like to use Elf’s Bronzing Drops, £12, as a moisturiser, because they have an extremely uniform, immediate tint. However, I like this because it’s a quick-developing tan. Next time, I’ll try adding a few drops of skin serum because I believe it will help my parched skin absorb the tint more evenly.

Final opinion? Be prepared for some trial and error if you have dry skin (or aren’t the quickest at blending) or have great features with this luxe product.

The Made in Chelsea legend paired a pair of camel-colored cargo pants with a black vest top. Marvin chose a suave two-piece camel polo shirt while he smouldering toward the camera and left his top buttons intact. Sam and Marvin shared a sneak peak at their lavish getaway on social media as they kicked back and relaxed in side-by-side business class seats onboard an aircraft just weeks apart when they jetted out of the country together for a swanky vacation.

Sources claim that Marvin and Sam’s getaway was part of a huge secret project that they are working on together. Sam’s post comes after his ex-girlfriend, Zara McDermott, has reportedly struck up a romance with a One Direction star.

After being spotted on a cozy “date” at a posh restaurant, Zara is alleged to be dating Louis Tomlinson. Onlookers reported that the pair were all smiles throughout their time dining together at a hotel in Suffolk.

One observer observed, “They looked like they were the happy couple. The couple struggled to contain their laughter, according to the source, who claimed Louis was constantly making Zara “giggle” throughout the entire dining experience. It is said that Louis was the “proper gentleman” toward Zara at their dinner.

While enjoying £100 in-chips and cocktails, Zara and Louis were seen giggling and holding hands. One observer described the hot new couple as “every bit the happy couple.” At Aldeburgh’s The Suffolk, where rooms can be found for up to £315 per night, Zara and Louis were spotted there.

When two stars touched hands across the table while taking pictures of them tucking into their £100 brill and chips, a fellow visitor commented how the pair appeared to be having a great time. They chatted for hours in the posh, opulent venue as they both remarked, “Zara had a few cocktails” and “Louis was really making her giggle.”

Danny Jones’ wife hits him with ultimatum ahead of months on road with McFly and Busted

According to reports, Georgia Jones’ wife has given her husband an ultimatum before he leaves for the tour.

After being caught arguing with his seven-year-old son Cooper, the McFly star, 39, apologised to the mother of his. Maura Higgins, 34, co-star, at the BRITs earlier this month.

Georgia, 38, is currently alleged to have eluded the couple’s home while she and Danny “work out how to fix things.” The former Miss England is now alleged to have issued the singer with an ultimatum prior to his autumnal tour with McFly and Busted.

The Busted vs. McFly tour will begin on September 16 and wrap up on November 8 with 33 shows throughout the UK and Ireland.

McFly
Georgia, Danny Jones’ wife, is said to be concerned about his upcoming autumn tour with McFly.

According to a source who claimed Georgia is “worried” about Danny’s prolonged absence, “Georgia is understandably nervous” about recent events. She is concerned about what occurs when he is traveling, but she also recognizes that there is a chance that things can be fixed. Danny needs to demonstrate that he is all in and has a clear ultimatum that she has given him: it’s either now or never. They continued, “Danny doesn’t want to lose her and there’s still hope,” adding that the couple could reconcile.

Danny apologized harshly to Georgia on social media more than a fortnight after being caught in a compromising position with Maura at the BRITs afterparty in London. He took to Instagram to express his regret for taking a break from posting this, saying: “I apologize. My wife and family have been in such a predicament, so I sincerely apologize. We’ll continue to deal with this in private because I adore them so much.

Georgia is reportedly staying with a friend while she determines her next move, leaving the home she shared with the Love Is Easy star.

According to sources, the mother-of-one, who wed Danny in 2014, has been “embarrassing” throughout the ordeal. Georgia and Dennis may still be married, but they are no longer together and Dane is “working out her desires,” according to a source. She told Danny she needed to leave because she had been so badly hurt and embarrassed by everything. Since Wednesday, she has been residing with her friend Rose.

In light of the scandal, the couple are “still talking” about how to move forward with their union, saying: “Georgia is still married to Danny and wearing her wedding rings… but they are currently having time apart.

Danny’s rep has been contacted by The Mirror to comment on this story.
