Eastenders’ Danny Dyer has criticized The Only Way Is Essex, saying it is “extremely upsetting” after daughter Dani’s ex Jack Fincham was revealed to have joined the show.
The Love Island champion reportedly filmed scenes from the ITVB reality show last week, which ended in an explosive face-off between him and his ex, Frankie Sims, 26.
in the latest episode of Sorted With Diors Podcast, Danny and Dani turned to the topic of pronunciation.
Then came The Only Way Is Essex, and the soap star said that “it’s very disturbing” that they “use East London words like ‘ag’ and they’ve changed it to ‘agie’”.
When Danny asked his father if he had a Tovy On series link, Danny replied: “Don’t be ridiculous. Don’t you ever say s**t around me like that.
“The first rule about watching Tovey is you never talk about watching Tovey, right?
“Unless you want all your credibility to completely disappear before your very eyes, you don’t declare it to another human being.
“So I want to reiterate, I don’t get that f***ing show on the chain link.”
This came to the fore when it was revealed that Dani’s ex Jack is set to face her ex-boyfriend Frankie on the show following their split in July.
a source told mail online That filming “ended up in a huge row between them”.
The pair went official with their relationship in May of this year, but gave time to their romance two months later.
a source told Ok!: “Jack and Frankie have split. They have a few lines and they unfollowed each other on Instagram.”
This is not the first time they have appeared on screen together as they also filmed the second season of X in the City in June.
Essex couple Jack and Frankie – who claimed to have “crazy chemistry” – put their relationship to the test when they came face-to-face with their ex on the MTV show.
A source told the time: “Jack and Frankie had signed up for ex in town — and were both horrified when something surprising came up.
“They’re a really strong pair, so they made it through the show — but audiences should expect fireworks onscreen.”
Their relationship came just weeks after Jack split with Frankie’s co-star Chloe Brockett.
Danny and Jack met in the fourth season of Love Island in 2018.
They paired on the first day and managed to win the show.
After a short break in late 2018, the pair gave their relationship another chance before separating in April 2019.
After their separation, Dani was back with her ex Sammy Kimmens and welcomed Santiago into the world in January 2021.
The stockbroker was jailed in July and Dani is now dating West Ham’s Jarrod Bowen.
