Danny Dyer, the British actor, recently shared a personal highlight that surpasses even his recent BAFTA win. Speaking at the ZYN Rolling Stone UK Awards in London, Dyer emphasized that the marriage of his daughter, Dani, to West Ham United striker Jarrod Bowen was his greatest achievement.
Danny Dyer’s Remarkable Year
In 2025, Dyer, aged 48, was awarded the BAFTA for Best Male Comedy Performance for his role in “Mr Bigstuff.” However, he explained that becoming the father-in-law of Bowen, who is also the captain of the football team, brought him even more joy. Dyer expressed his pride on stage, stating, “Every dad dreams of his daughter bringing hope the right person, but the captain of the team! What a touch.”
A Spirited Award Ceremony
The awards took place at London’s Roundhouse and featured performances from notable acts, including The Cranberries. Dyer, who hosted the event, energized the crowd with his lively introduction and candid remarks.
