Dani Dyer has made a deeply emotional and heartbreaking confession about her famous father, Danny Dyer, as they prepare to debut their new television series, The Dyers' Caravan Park, on Sky. The 29-year-old reality TV star admitted that she would consider stuffing her dad's body after his death so she could always have him nearby, highlighting their exceptionally close bond.
A Father-Daughter Collaboration on Sky
The Dyers' Caravan Park sees Danny Dyer, 48, who has a lifelong passion for caravan parks, attempting to revive the great British holiday by restoring Priory Hill in Leysdown, Kent. Drawing on fond memories of his own caravan holidays in the 1980s, Danny is investing his personal finances, time, and effort into this project, with daughter Dani joining him to bring back the spirit of classic family vacations.
An Unbreakable Bond
Dani and Danny share a remarkably close relationship, having previously collaborated on various projects including the television show True Love or True Lies, their popular podcast Sorted with the Dyers, and the travel series Absolutely Dyer: Danny and Dani do Italy. In an interview ahead of their new show, Dani opened up about her feelings for her father.
"I really would! He's just my best mate; I just adore him," Dani said, referring to her macabre admission about preserving him after death. "Me and mum have got the most amazing relationship and I'm really close with my dad as well. I don't know if it's because they had me so young and I've gone through life with them together, but I just adore that man so much."
She described Danny as "the naughty boy that I have to rein in a little bit" and added, "I always say to him, if he was in my year at school, I would want to be his mate. We just have such a good bond. Obviously, you know, he's the dad, but we just get on so well."
Working Together Seamlessly
When asked about working with her father, Dani explained that it feels natural rather than like work. "People always say to me, 'what's it like working with your dad?' And I'm like 'To be honest, it doesn't feel like work.' We just always work well together and we know how to be on TV together," she said.
Dani noted their complementary skills: "Reality TV is my thing, whereas for him, he obviously does acting. So he's like 'Dan, I couldn't do it without you.' So it just works really, really well. I think you can tell by watching, we don't really know how to run a business. We're just trying our best and giving it a go."
Danny's Perspective on Their Partnership
Danny Dyer also spoke about his decision to involve Dani in the caravan park venture. "I said 'if I do it, I'd like to get my daughter Dani involved because I think we have a real chemistry and I love being around her,'" he revealed. "It was a wonderful opportunity for me and her to spend the summer together, so I just thought: 'F**k it, let's do it and see if there's still something in a caravan holiday.'"
The Dyers' Caravan Park is set to launch on 24 February, available on Sky and the streaming platform NOW. This series marks another chapter in the Dyer family's collaborative efforts, blending personal dynamics with professional endeavors in a heartfelt attempt to rejuvenate a beloved British tradition.
