Love Island winner Jack Fincham to finally meet Danny Dyer!
Will Love Island winner Jack Fincham finally get his treasured canvas print autographed when he meets girlfriend Dani Dyer's dad Danny Dyer?
Love Island winner Jack Fincham says he will be excited to finally meet his girlfriend Dani Dyer's famous dad, Danny Dyer in person this week.
Although Jack "met" EastEnders star Danny and his wife Joanne Mas during a Skype video call during the penultimate episode of ITV 2's hit reality show last month, he'll meet them for real this week when they return to the UK from their summer holiday in Florida.
"I’m looking forward to that, it’s Dani’s birthday tomorrow," Jack told ITV's Good Morning Britain earlier today. "I’ve met the rest of the family, her nan, her granddad – Bruv – and all her friends, it’s just them two because they’ve been on holiday.”
He added: "I’m looking forward to it, it’ll be fun, I like meeting new people anyway."

But from a recent Instagram post, it looks like former stationery salesman Jack has already been officially welcomed into the family, with a spoof canvas print inspired by Danny's starring role in hit flick The Business (2005) about an East End fella called Frankie who gets involved with some dodgy goings-on in the Costa Del Sol!
