EXCLUSIVE: Dani Dyer has married her footballer boyfriend Jarrod Bowen in a stunning ceremony attended by family and friends, with the reality star looking every inch the beautiful bride
Danny Dyer is said to have pulled out ‘all of the stops’ for his daughter Dani’s lavish wedding to West Ham player Jarrod Bowen in a ‘thank you’ as the actor is said to owe some of his career to his eldest.
The former Love Island star looked every inch the beautiful bride on Saturday as she tied the knot to Jarrod in a stunning ceremony, surrounded by family and friends. The big day came four years after Dani and Jarrod’s relationship began, with the pair meeting while the former was navigating life as a single mum to Santiago, her son with her ex, Sammy Kimmence.
Beginning as neighbours, friendship blossomed into love for the couple and in May 2023, they had their own twin daughters, Summer and Star. And now that the duo are husband and wife, a source tells Mirror how Dani is hoping to have a long-lasting marriage like her own parents; Danny and Joanne Mas.
“Family is everything to Dani and Danny is the same way. He pulled out all of the stops to make sure it’s a wedding no one would forget for his little girl – the best day of her life. He adores her and actually says he’s got her to thank for some things because Dani winning Love Island boosted his career too.

“Dani feels she has found her soulmate in Jarrod and it’s a relief after she’s had so many ups and downs. Everyone else loves him too. Jarrod and Danny get on so well, which was important to Dani, so it was always going to be a wonderful celebration for the family.”
Danny and Joanne were childhood sweethearts, but they only got married in 2016. They have been together for more than three decades – and their relationship has survived a few bumps in the road. Shortly after the birth of their first child, Dani, the couple ended up taking a short break from each other before reuniting and having two more children, Sunnie and Arty.
In an episode of ITV series The Assembly, which was broadcast in April, Danny, 47, spoke about their relationship, which has survived multiple cheating allegations throughout his career.
Describing how he felt about his wife after their wedding, Danny said, “To be standing here with the girl I grew up with – looking so beautiful in her wedding dress – that is a lovely thing. Jo is my best girl, the love of my life. Without her, I would be nothing.”
Dani previously admitted she was sceptical about getting serious with Jarrod and couldn’t believe he wanted to “take on” both Dani and her young son, who is now four. Opening up about their early days, Dani revealed it was in fact her dad who warned her she was going to “lose him” if she didn’t stop trying to “put him off”. It was her parents’ advice that gave her the motivation to make things work with the footballer.
Speaking to Giovanna Fletcher on her Happy Mum, Happy Baby podcast, Dani said, “I don’t know why I kept doing that to him. In the end, I was getting to a point where my mum and dad were like, ‘Listen, Dani, you’re going to end up losing him. Stop it! He wants to take you and Santi on. He’s more than happy to do that. So just appreciate that and be happy that he wants to.’”
Indeed, Dani’s dad has shown constant support for the couple since they got together. Chatting on The Jonathan Ross Show in February, he admitted he was “on the verge of tears” when Jarrod called him to “ask for her hand in marriage”.
Gushing over the footballer, who is West Ham’s captain, Danny described him as a “very humble, brilliant, beautiful man who worships the ground she walks on”.
