Dani Dyer has become one of the most beloved faces in the UK after winning Love Island 2018 with her boyfriend Jack Fincham. They captured the hearts of the nation after coupling up on the first day, and since getting back to the UK have even said they're thinking of getting married next year!

Two of Dani's biggest supporters are her mum, Joanne Mas, and her dad, EastEnders actor Danny Dyer, who has championed his little girl from the very start and shared a hilarious video of himself for her when she won the show. However, Danny has issued some words of advice for his daughter, after he and Jo had her when they were 18.

Speaking to the Daily Star, Danny said, "As much as I love Dani, and of course I'm overjoyed we had her, I would advise her to have children later on in life. You should live your life first. There are benefits to having kids early, but you lose a lot of your own childhood and self-discovery."

He went on to say that having a baby became a "24-hour-a-day thing" for himself and Jo, and that it put a "lot of stress" on their relationship, adding, "Sex goes out the window a little bit and you have to start earning properly."

But he did say that he trusts his daughter and that she's "got her head screwed on right."
