He added: ‘He is amazing. I can’t wait to give her away. What a touch. But if he was to make a move on me before… I think I’m in love with him, slightly.’ 

Dani recently revealed she is putting the finishing touches on her upcoming wedding to fiancé Jarrod. 

The former Love Island star revealed finalising her seating plans has been the most stressful part of the nuptials.

Speaking to Heat magazine, she said: ‘I have finally done my table plans now. Until you are in there writing names out, making sure you have tables of 10, it’s the most stressful experience ever – that’s the only thing I’ve not enjoyed.’

Dani also revealed she will take on a double-barrell surname after the wedding, becoming Dyer-Bowen.

She said: ‘I am going to keep the Dyer – I am going to do Dani Dyer-Bowen just because of my work. I feel like if I am Dani Bowen, it takes that thing away from me. We are double-barrelling it.’

The wedding will undoubtedly be an emotional day for Dani’s father Danny Dyer, with the reality star saying he and West Ham star Jarrod are very close. 

‘We’ve joked so many times that Jarrod is marrying the wrong Dani Dyer!’ she said.

The mother-of-three added she has really enjoyed the build up to the big day, which included a recent hen night in Ibiza with her pals. 

Sparing no expense with her lavish nuptials, the bride-to-be shared a glimpse of her wild celebrations on Instagram, which included a boozy brunch, a boat trip and a raucous night in the lavish nightclub Ushuaia. 

A source told The Sun that Dani really splashed the cash during her hen celebrations, including a VIP night at Ushuaia that cost at least £8,000.

The insider said: ‘Dani might have flown on a commercial flight but they splashed the cash when they landed.

‘She spent Friday night at Ushuaia where they were on a VIP table with a minimum spend of £8,000. The next day they hired a boat to go around the coast before spending the rest of the time chilling at the Hard Rock hotel.

‘Dani also had a boozy brunch at Beso Beach where her mates put on Jarrod masks and sang ABBA songs with her.

‘They spent their last night at super club Hï Ibiza where they had a VIP booth. There were some sore heads when they touched down at City airport.’

Dani said: ‘I have finally done my table plans now. Until you are in there writing names out, making sure you have tables of 10, it’s the most stressful experience ever’

Dani reportedly splashed out an eye-watering £20,000 on her hen party in Ibiza, as she prepares to tie the knot with footballer Jarrod Bowen this weekend

Meanwhile, Jarrod jetted off to Las Vegas for his stag do as he prepares to marry the Love Island star. 

Explaining the timeline on their Live And Let Dyers podcast, Dani explained: ‘I literally get back from my Hen on the Monday and then I get married on the Saturday. And if you can go, Jarrod gets back Thursday and then married Saturday.’

That’s when Danny cheered and shouted out: ‘Strippers!,’ much to his daughter’s dismay.

‘No, you’re not,’ insisted Dani, who went on to explain that at a different Hen she attended, they had a butler in the buff. 

Dani said: ‘We had to draw him, we had to draw the naked man. It’s different, it’s so different. I don’t care.’

Not giving in, Danny quipped: ‘It’s sexism this, this is sexism at its height ladies and gentlemen.’
