Dani Dyer has treated fans to a glimpse into the lead-up to her lavish wedding day with Jarrod Bowen at the weekend.
The former Love Island star, 28, and the West Ham captain, 28, tied the knot during an intimate ceremony surrounded by their closest friends and family on Saturday.
And in the days since, the newlyweds have been sharing snippets from their nuptials on social media, with Dani taking to Instagram on Thursday with even more unseen snaps, with the caption: 'Moments before'.
This time, she showed her followers a look inside the moments before she and Jarrod became husband and wife, with a sweet shot of the couple kissing in the car, after popping a celebratory bottle of champagne.
The pair could be seen enjoying spending time with their families, with Dani posing for a beaming selfie with proud dad, Danny Dyer.

She also shared a slew of sweet photos of her son Santiago, four, who she shares with ex Sammy Kimmence, tucking into several meals as he prepared to be a page boy, alongside Dani's brother Arty, 11.
While her and Jarrod's twin daughters Summer and Star, two, served as flower girls for their parents big day, and could be seen looking adorable in their matching floral dresses.
And though she kept her wedding gown secret until the big day, Dani still ensured she looked every inch the bride, wearing an elegant white minidress, with a low back and huge bow detail.
While even when she was getting ready, she donned a white jumper with the words 'BRIDE' emblazoned on the back.
For the actual ceremony, Dani dazzled in a £10,000 designer gown by Suzanne Neville, before changing into a stunning lace minidress for the raucous reception.
Speaking on her joint podcast with Danny, Dani revealed she was keeping her first wedding dress a surprise from her dad until the big day to honour a special tradition.
'Have you not seen that first look when the dad sees their daughter in their dress and that? Oh, it's lovely,' she shared.
'Yeah, your dad's not meant to see it – it's a moment for the dad as well!'

The Bridgerton-themed wedding took place at the five star Langley Hotel, which sits on the estate of the third Duke of Marlborough, in former royal hunting grounds.
White rose petals lined the aisle, with floral sculptures and candles creating a stunning backdrop which the bride and groom shared a kiss in front of.
The fun was kicked off by father of the bride Danny, who led a wedding breakfast chant of the rude West Ham anthem, 'Bowen's on fire and he's sh***ing Dani Dyer,' to the 1997 hit Freed from Desire, changing the lyrics to say 'married'.
While Dani's sister Sunnie was one of six bridesmaids, who all wowed in matching one shoulder pink dresses.
The 18-year-old also had a role during the ceremony as she read a poem from Sex and The City's wedding scene, which went: 'His hello was the end of her endings. Her laugh was their first step down the aisle. His hand would be hers to hold forever.
'His forever was as simple as her smile. He said she was what was missing. She said instantly she knew. She was a question to be answered. And his answer was 'I do'.'
After Dani and Jarrod exchanged their vows, the couple were quick to indulge in their huge wedding cake, with the happy couple seen lifting a huge slice in a fun video.
The reception also boasted a live band who serenaded Dani as she shared a sweet father-daughter dance with Dani.

Dani has had a whirlwind few months, filled with two lavish hen parties and all the excitement of getting ready for her big day.
Speaking to Heat magazine earlier this week, Dani said: 'I have finally done my table plans now. Until you are in there writing names out, making sure you have tables of 10, it's the most stressful experience ever - that's the only thing I've not enjoyed.'
Dani also revealed she will take on a double-barrel surname after the wedding, becoming Dyer-Bowen.
She said: 'I am going to keep the Dyer - I am going to do Dani Dyer-Bowen just because of my work. I feel like if I am Dani Bowen, it takes that thing away from me. We are double-barrelling it.'

Taylor Swift shocks fans as she attends Travis Kelce's cousin's Nashville wedding
Taylor Swift gave fans the shock of a lifetime as she attended Travis Kelce 's cousin's wedding in Nashville. Videos spread on X (formally Twitter) of the power couple - who were seen on a date night in Florida earlier this week - enjoying the reception together as they moved and grooved while sitting in their chairs and watching the bride and groom do their first dance. Several videos on TikTok showed the 35-year-old pop megastar wearing a strapless blue floral patterned Markarian dress which retails for $1,995. She completed the look with a pair of strappy brown leather heels as her signature blonde locks were teased into waves which cascaded down her shoulders. Travis, also 35, looked happy to be joined by his ladylove at the family event which took place in a barnhouse reportedly in Nashville. It seemed to be the wedding of the star Kansas City Chief tight end's cousin Tanner Corum, who tied the knot with Samantha Peck. One TikTok user - named @Paigedoeswhatshewants - humorously captioned a post: 'not Taylor Swift being at my friends friends cousins wedding.' Earlier this week the power couple enjoyed a rare date night after fans fell for a viral 'pregnancy' rumor. A now-viral video posted to X (formerly Twitter) caught the couple leaving Buccan restaurant on Wednesday night, which is located near Kelce's $20million mansion in Boca Raton, Florida. Holding hands with the NFL star, Swift greeted awaiting fans with a smile before getting into the front passenger's seat of a black SUV. Kelce made sure Swift was settled in before making his way around the vehicle. As he passed by the excited fans, Kelce politely told them to 'have a goodnight.' For their date night, Swift looked sensational in a classic LBD styled with open-toed heels and a vintage purse. She wore her sandy blonde hair in a bun and appeared to be rocking her signature red lip. 📷| A Fairy Princess attending a wedding today!😊 — Taylor Swift Updates 🩶 (@swifferupdates) June 6, 2025 As for Kelce, the three-time Super Bowl champion towered over his 5foot11inch girlfriend in a black button-up shirt and a pair of flouncy, patterned trousers. The clip of the couple out in Florida quickly went viral, with Swifties flocking to the comment section to fawn over Kelce and how 'polite' he is to Swift and her fans. However, many fans also took the opportunity to playfully roast Kelce's outfit — particularly his wild pants. Several joked that it looked like Kelce was wearing pajamas while others straight up gave the pants a thumbs down. One fans jumped to the football star's defense as they explained that that style of pant is 'standard for dressing up to go out to a nice restaurant' in Florida. The A-list couple's date night comes days after Swift fans convinced themselves that the pop star was pregnant thanks to an optical illusion. The rumor mill went into overdrive after Swift stepped out in New York City with what appeared to be a pregnant belly on display. 'She's eight months pregnant,' wrote one fan on X, while another posted, 'Taylor appears pregnant in New York!' The clip of the couple out in Florida quickly went viral, with Swifties flocking to the comment section to fawn over Kelce and how 'polite' he is to Swift and her fans However, upon closer inspection, it was clear that Swift's black mini-dress had blended into a black car in the background, which made it look like she had a large baby bump. A number of fans found Swift's pregnancy illusion hilarious, with one commenting, 'I thought Travis Kelce was becoming a dad for a sec.' Taylor spent the weekend with bestie Selena Gomez in New York, though she honored her boyfriend Travis during the outing. Swift and Gomez, 32, were spotted at Monkey Bar in Manhattan on Saturday, while Kelce was in Kansas City for the Big Slick charity event. While Kelce wasn't present for the outing, Swift was clearly thinking about him, choosing to wear a sweet gift from the Kansas City Chiefs star. The pop icon was spotted wearing a custom Wove x Michelle Wie West gold and diamond tennis friendship bracelet with the letters "TNT" during the outing, according to TMZ. While Taylor and Travis haven't been out much since he played in the Super Bowl back in February, the couple have been hunkered down in Florida recently. The couple, who have been together since the summer of 2023, have recently been at the center of gossip that they're planning to get married and start a family – and former athletes Julian Edelman and Rob Gronkowski have shared their thoughts on the pair's future. Julian, 38, said in the 'Dudes on Dudes' podcast about the possibility of Taylor and Travis having their first child: 'That would be a great kid.' Rob, 35, added: 'The kid would be performing – having eight catches a game and then doing the halftime show.' In March 2024, Kansas City Chiefs tight end Harrison Butker told EWTN News in Depth he hoped the couple would ' get married and start a family '. Taylor was photographed in November 2023 holding fellow WAG Chariah Gordon's infant daughter. In February, Travis' friend Adam Lefkoe recalled on the 'Steam Room' podcast the singer was excited to see photos of his baby when they met at an MLB game. Travis is already an uncle to three nieces, with his brother, Jason Kelce, expecting a fourth daughter with wife Kylie Kelce. The athlete has spoken about fatherhood, saying in March 2024, on his and Jason's 'New Heights' podcast: 'I can't wait… to f****** make one' – while discussing 'lab-grown' NBA players. In November, on the 'Are You Smarter Than a Celebrity?' show, Travis also joked having a baby would make him 'smarter', adding: 'Man, that's all I had to do to become brilliant?' Swift and Kelce's Wednesday date night also comes days after Swift successfully purchased her own music catalogue for a sum reported to be $360 million by some and anywhere between $600 million and $1 billion by others. In a hand-written letter posted on her website last Friday, Swift claimed the money she made from her lucrative Eras tour last year helped bankroll the purchase of her old material and 'her entire life's work'. She said: 'All I've ever wanted was the opportunity to work hard enough to be able to one day purchase my music outright with no strings attached, no partnership, with full autonomy. ' Taylor then thanked Shamrock Capital for their 'honest, fair and respectful' way they handled the deal, adding: 'I really felt like they saw it for what it was to me: My memories and my sweat and my handwriting and my decades of dreams.' She then joked: 'My first tattoo might just be a huge shamrock in the middle of my forehead.' Kelce celebrated his girlfriend buying back her music in a heartwarming clip ahead of this week's episode of his New Heights podcast. Travis and his co-host brother Jason were joined by NBA great Shaquille O'Neal for the show, and he played a clip of Swift's hit song 'I Knew You Were Trouble'. Travis immediately started jigging as Shaq said it is his 'favorite song in the world', prompting huge cheers from Jason. A beaming Travis replied: 'Shout out to Tay Tay. Just got that song back, too. Just bought all her music back so it is finally hers too, man. I appreciate that, dog.'

Dragonfly review – haunting, genre-defying drama of lonely city living
Twenty years ago, Paul Andrew Williams announced himself as a smart new British talent with his ferocious gangland picture London to Brighton, and his creativity has continued in film and TV ever since. His new film is a haunted, social-realist drama with elements of Mike Leigh but also moments of thriller and even horror. Williams isn't shy of stabbing us with an old-fashioned jump scare towards the end, which in fact challenges the audiences with its refusal of categorisation. There are two superb lead performances from Andrea Riseborough and Brenda Blethyn and an outstanding supporting turn from Jason Watkins. Dragonfly is about loneliness and alienation and about the eternal mystery of other people, the fear of intimacy and the unknowable existence of urban neighbours. Elsie, played by Blethyn, is an older woman who is quite capable of independent living in her bungalow, but a recent fall and an injured wrist has meant that her middle-aged son (Watkins), all too obviously to compensate for not visiting that often, has paid for daily visits from a private agency nurses. They are overworked and not doing an especially good job. Really, she doesn't need these nurses and by enduring them, Elsie is shouldering the burden of her son's guilt. Meanwhile nextdoor neighbour Colleen, played by Riseborough, is a continuingly strange presence. She is a melancholy, withdrawn figure, evidently on benefits and living with her huge American bull terrier, uncompromisingly named Sabre. Williams shows us that she is effectively living in a kind of platonic relationship, or mariage blanc, with this dog; the film periodically gives us startling shots of Sabre's colossal body in a kind of domestic nakedness sprawled on Colleen's bed. In a manner that may be insidious or predatory or just friendly and compassionate, Colleen befriends Elsie; the latter overcomes her initial nervousness of Sabre and she appreciates Colleen's forthright offer of help. Colleen goes down to the shops to get groceries for Elsie and after a few such trips they agree that what would be easiest would be if Colleen simply gets Elsie's debit card and Elsie gives her the pin number. Of course, the film allows us to suspect the worst and then suspect the worst of ourselves for suspecting it. Colleen seems to be unhappy and damaged but well-meaning, especially when she (for a laugh) buys them both a two-way radio so they can easily keep in contact – but then uses this radio to talk to Elsie late at night and semi-intentionally to allow bewildered Elsie to hear what's happening in Colleen's house. It is a riveting dual portrait of two gloomy people who really have, in a strange and dysfunctional way, found a new way of interacting and – importantly – this is a triangular relationship: Elsie, Colleen and the vast Sabre. But with a terrible inevitability, Elsie's uptight busybody son John (Watkins) arrives and there are awful consequences to a conversation he has with Colleen which Williams only shows us in long shot, withholding the truth about what he's saying. It's a stark, fierce, wonderfully acted film. Dragonfly screened at the Tribeca film festival.

Ryan Lochte breaks silence on divorce from Playboy wife Kayla with emotional message
US Olympic icon Ryan Lochte has spoken out on Instagram over the influx of support he has received after it emerged he is getting divorced from his wife, Kayla Reid. The couple announced the news on Wednesday and speaking on social media, the 12-time Olympic medalist said it was 'rough' going public with the split. 'I just want to say thank you to everyone that wrote a message, reached out to me — just open arms,' he said in an Instagram video. 'It means a lot to me. Yesterday was a rough day for me, but, like always in life, you've got to put one foot in front of the other and keep moving forward, so, that's what I'm doing.' The 40-year-old Lochte said he had been sent gifts by his 'second family', such as candy and a card. 'Thank you guys, I love you guys,' he added. The couple have three kids together. Kayla announced the split on June 4, saying: 'I hold marriage in the highest regard, so this has been one of the most painful, revealing, and challenging seasons of my life. 'I've been hesitant to share until I could do so from a place of healing - not from fresh, open wounds.' 'Sometimes we face trials we didn't choose or see coming. And in those moments, we're forced to make the hardest decisions to protect our peace, our children, and our future. 'I've come to the understanding that staying isn't always the most loving decision someone can make. For me, leaving was an act of love - for those around me and for myself.' The couple shares son Caiden, 7, daughter Liv, 5 and nearly two-year-old daughter Georgia. According to court records cited by People, Kayla filed for divorce on March 26. Lochte shared a statement himself, saying: 'I want to take a moment to acknowledge what Kayla shared. This past year has brought major changes for both of us as we've come to the difficult decision to end our marriage. 'I'm deeply grateful for the life we've built together and especially for the love we share for our three children. 'Although this decision hasn't been easy, I believe it's the right step toward peace and well-being for us both. I remain committed to healing, growth, and co-parenting with care and respect as we move forward separately.' The couple met in 2016 before getting engaged that same year in the fall. Lochte was also thrust into controversy during the 2016 Rio Games, after he claimed that he and three teammates were robbed at gunpoint after a night out. It was later revealed that the armed men were actually security guards and several details of Lochte's story proved to be fabricated. He was ultimately charged with submitting a false report to police, but charges were later dismissed after he apologized.
