From the Dales to Dad Duties
Danny Miller, who first appeared in Emmerdale in 2008, has become a household name through his portrayal of Aaron Dingle, a character involved in some of the soap's most hard-hitting plots. These have included coming to terms with his sexuality, surviving childhood abuse, and coping with grief and loss. His performance earned him the British Soap Award for Best Actor in 2011, 2012, and 2016.
Away from the cameras, his life is centred around his family in Greater Manchester. Not content with just the photos, Danny later shared a playful video on his own Instagram, showing him dancing to the Paw Patrol theme with his kids. He captioned the clip: "A week since we got back off holiday and we are still doing the KouKou move. But today as Sky & Chase 'The Music Pups'."
Soap Star Success and Future Drama
Beyond Emmerdale, Danny Miller won the public's vote to become king of the jungle in the 2021 series of 'I'm a Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here!' Meanwhile, his character Aaron remains embroiled in dramatic storylines in the Dales. Currently, Aaron is unaware that his fiancé, Robert Sugden, was forced to frame Moira Dingle for crimes she didn't commit, a secret that is sure to cause explosive scenes when revealed.
Emmerdale continues to air on ITV1 and STV on weekday evenings at 8pm, as part of ITV's soap schedule.
