The pair said their vows to each other yesterday, in front of their close family and friends. Their elaborate ceremony took place at the five-star hotel The Langley in Iver, Buckinghamshire, the former manor home of the third Duke of Marlborough. Set in 150 acres of parkland grounds, her former EastEnders actor father Danny Dyer, 47, walked his daughter down the aisle. Dani previously told how she was an "emotional wreck" just hours before the ceremony. However, new footage of the morning has emerged before the former reality star looking nothing but happy before she got into her stunning off the shoulder gown. Her close fan and fashion stylist Ellis Ranson posted a behind-the-scenes video with the glam squad on her Instagram story. Dani could be seen looked relaxed and cheerful as she sat on the floor in her yellow silk pyjamas. Clutching a glass of champagne and a vape, she looked everything a blushing bride should be as her hair was tied up with a complimentary bow. As her bridesmaids also had their hair styled and makeup applied, Dani kept her two-year-old twins, Summer and Star entertained. Moment Dani Dyer and Jarrod Bowen's wedding guests sing very rude football chant about couple She could be heard singing the nursery rhyme, Hop Little Bunnies out loud as one of her daughters danced around her in a bright yellow co-ord outfit. In other snaps shared of her big day, Dani looked sensational in white as she and footballer Jarrod got married in a star-studded ceremony. A separate image shows father of the bride Danny, 47, looking out of the window at the gorgeous venue with his grandchildren. He kept close by Dani and Jarrod's twin daughters, as well as her son Santiago, aged four, from a previous relationship. How Dani Dyer transformed her reputation The daughter of everyone's favourite EastEnders geezer Danny, is currently living the high life. But Dani has had a rollercoaster few years, from her Love Island win back in 2018, to watching her son's father Sammy Kimmence go to prison for fraud, and now navigating her glamourous new life as a WAG and mother of twin babies. In recent years, Dani has completely shaken off the 'chav' persona, and has become one of the most well-known of the current England WAGs. Fabulous spoke to celebrity PR expert Ed Hopkins to find out the key steps Dani has taken to reinvent herself, including the tips she has borrowed from iconic WAG Cheryl Cole. Ed revealed that Dani's ability to navigate personal challenges, such as the scandal involving Sammy, has greatly played a crucial role in her reinvention. Ed said: "By openly discussing her struggles and triumphs, she has built a strong, relatable persona. "Her transparency about her personal life, including solo parenting and dealing with public scrutiny, has garnered significant public support and empathy." He also shared that Dani's openness in discussing the challenges of motherhood, has helped to transform her reputation. Ed said: "This openness has made her more relatable to a broader audience, particularly young mothers. She balances her public image by sharing both the joys and hardships of parenting, creating a more nuanced and authentic brand." Dani is often seen supporting West Ham winger Jarrod, including during England's devastating loss to Spain in the 2024 Euros. Her unwavering support for her partner, has cemented her as one of the most well-known WAGS of this generation, according to Ed. He said: "Her active support for Jarrod, including attending football matches and engaging with fans, mirrors the strategies used by high-profile WAGs like Cheryl Cole and Victoria Beckham, who also stood by their partners publicly and built their own identities alongside them." Not only this, but Ed revealed that Dani has been able to stay relevant over the years due to her candid use of social media. He said: "Dani has consistently used media platforms to share her narrative, from interviews to social media updates. "She has managed to stay relevant by engaging with her followers through candid posts and professional collaborations. "This approach is reminiscent of how Victoria Beckham transitioned from pop stardom to a respected fashion designer, using media to reframe her public image." The little girls were seen in adorable white dresses with bow detail on the back after they played an important role as flower girls during the ceremony. Their big brother Santi, who acted as a page boy with Jarrod's little brother, stood sandwiched between them in a white shirt and dark trousers. 6 The pair said 'I do' in front of an assembled group of family and friends Credit: Instagram 6 The duo were on cloud nine as they celebrated at the five-star hotel, The Langley in Iver, Buckinghamshire, Credit: Instagram

Love Island 'signs gym enthusiast' who's undergone major transformation
With the 2025 season of Love Island now just days away, increasing reports are emerging to suggest exactly who will be entering the villa - with a football fan the latest to be linked to the show Love Island casting agents have enlisted a "cheeky chappy" to take part as a contestant in the upcoming 2025 season of the long-running ITV reality dating show. A gym enthusiast named Tommy Bradley has been reported as cast in the upcoming new season, which will be the 12th to air over the past decade. The Londoner, who appears to be an avid fan of Tottenham Hotspur, is said to have undergone a dramatic body transformation in preparation for his time in the villa. He will be flown to the Mediterranean, where he stands to find love with any number of beautiful women enlisted to join the contestants in the main house - or those who plan to wreck romances in the inevitable Casa Amor phase of the show. It is reported that show bosses hope Tommy can bring some humour to the series as he is being described as a "cheeky" contestant. While ITV is yet to unveil the cast of the upcoming new season of their reality show, which airs on June 9, reports of potential contestants have become rife in recent days. A source told The Sun:"Tommy seems to tick all the Love Island boxes as the cheeky chappy of this summer's series. He looks to enjoy a night out with the lads and out on the boxing scene with his brother. "But he's also packed on serious muscle over the last year, ready for telly's famous villa and is no longer just a personality hire. Execs are finalising who will be in the OG line-up and who will be a bombshell." The Mirror has contacted ITV for comment. While photos shared by Tommy via Instagram paint him as a classic tanned, toned and smily potential Islander. Love Island is just over a week away from returning to screens, with an official synopsis reading: "A fresh batch of singles prepare for the summer of a lifetime in the ultimate search for love, with host Maya Jama overseeing proceedings at the villa in Majorca." Maya Jama has been teasing the upcoming new season - which marks 10 full years since the series first returned in 2015 with the late Caroline Flack as the host. The new season is set to kick off on Monday 9 June - and it could be the most dramatic season of all time. An advert for the returning show has been unleashed showing Maya sat in a brain storming session trying to think up new ways to keep viewers engaged on the show. The clip was shared via Instagram with a caption stating: "To the hottie this may concern, as per the last 11 Series, we're staying loyal to the entertainment. "Moving forward, we'll be levelling up on the twists. The stakeholders are aligned, the Islanders will be laying it on Factor 50, and we're on track to hit our KPI on drama. It's time to crack on and deliver serious results. Let's circle back soon. Warmest wishes x." The footage showed Maya saying to the team: "This year Love Island needs something bigger, something bolder. I want ideas." One of the team suggests: "Move it to the Isle of Wight?" But this prompted an unimpressed expression from Maya. Another suggested: "What if we turned it into a musical?" Only for Maya to ask: "Why?" Another suggested: "Love Island, on ice?" But Maya hit back, saying: "Never." And when the suggestion of including robots is made, she yells: "No!" Addressing the camera, and seemingly anyone who does want to take part in the show, she says: "This year I want more drama, more bombshells, more break-ups, more make-ups. I want more twists. I want more twists than ever." The series is set to return on ITV2 on Monday 9 June at 9pm - with footage then airing on ITV1 from 10:45pm following the conclusion of the 2025 launch episode.
