Dani Dyer's dating life has been full of ups and downs since she left the Love Island villa back in 2018 and we've been keeping tabs on her rollercoaster journey.

Following a turbulent on-and-off relationship with boyfriend Sammy Kimmence, the couple were overjoyed as they welcomed their baby boy, Santiago, on 23 January 2021.

However, Dani's world was quickly turned upside down when Sammy was jailed for 42 months after pleading guilty to scamming two pensioners out of £34,000 at Portsmouth Crown Court in April 2021.

Luckily, as of December 2021, it seems that Dani has moved on after going Instagram official with her new man, Jarrod Bowen, sharing a sweet snap of the two of them cosying up to each other whilst dressed in white robes.

Romance rumours were originally sparked between the pair in October when the footballer was spotted leaving her Essex home but nothing was confirmed for several weeks.

The two now regularly share sweet snaps of each other and it's clear they're pretty loved up. Awww...

Dani recently posted a picture of the two of them on Instagram to celebrate some incredible career news for Jarrod. He has been handed his first call-up to the England squad ahead of next month's Nations League matches.

Dani included the caption, "Beyond proud of you. You deserve this so much🥺 love you more every single day❤️ bring it on @england 🎉🎉."

Dani's followers were quick to congratulate Jarrod with one person writing, "Congratulations 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 ⚽️proud moment for you both well done 👏 looking beautiful as always Dani xx."

Another added, "You have worked wonders on our lad! Keep doing what you're doing Dani 🤪💞."

Dani also shared a snap of her son Santi with Jarrod on her Instagram Story and it's adorable.

Jarrod's incredible news follows recent engagement rumours, as apparently the footballer is set to propose to Dani after the season ends.

Bad news: it seems it won’t be a surprise after it was reported last week that the 25 year old has already asked big Danny for his permission.

Dani recently shared a snap of herself and Jarrod and captioned the picture, "You and me forever".

And during an Instagram Q&A one of her followers asked if she wanted more children.

Hmm.

Jarrod has met both of Dani's parents, dad Danny Dyer and mum Joanne Mas, and seems to have received their seal of approval, although that was always likely since Dani's doting new man has been always been a lifelong supporter of West Ham United.

Previously, ex-boyfriend Sammy did not meet up to Danny's standards, as he was quoted as saying to Dani in her autobiography, "he's not for you, babe". We can't help but think dad might be responsible for this one...
