A lesson on why not to mess with the Dyers...
Everyone knows not to make an enemy out of Danny Dyerand his family, right? Especially, as they're literally royalty (descendants of Richard III - it's in the history books).
Well it looks like Dan Wooton - a journalist from The Sun - didn't get the memo, after finding himself at the receiving end of a barrage of tweets from Danny's mum Christine Dyer.
It all started when Dan broke the news that Christine's grand-daughter Dani Dyer and Jack Fincham had broken up on 6 December, by crassly tweeting: "I CALLED IT! Love Island winners Jack Fincham and Dani Dyer have split after just 129 days. Sadly I knew this one was never going to last."
Christine responded in the only way you'd expect Granny Dyer to, by writing: "Oh do f*** off. They have not split up at all. They are both really busy and don’t have to live in each other’s pockets. F***ing rag newspapers boil my piss. And how dare you rejoice at the thought of them splitting up!"
Jack and Dani reunited a few days later, after Dani shared an emotional post, which read: "Just want to put all comments to bed. All I can say is I’m still 22 trying to get my shit together and grow into a woman but doing it in the public eye is sometimes hard and scary 😂 but arguments are arguments and I love him. I can only please people who want to be pleased and I am having to learn that opinions are just opinions. Hope everyone can understand that i am just a normal girl."
This prompted Dan to negatively dissect the relationship in further detail on ITV's Lorraine on 12 December. He also sparked up the discussion again on Twitter, writing: "Sorry for everyone wanting a love story - but here’s the harsh facts re Love Island’s Dani and Jack. They got back together for commercial reasons. So tacky! But hey, we need some light relief right now."
It was time for Christine to take action once more, by tweeting: "Just watched that p_k Dan Wooton slagging off my granddaughter on Lorraine. I can’t remember the last time a hated anyone that much. F_ng w*nkstain!"
Wow. It's worth pausing for a moment to learn that Christine is also a teacher. But, whatever... it's a small detail, right?
Dani Dyer herself then chimed in, writing: "Nan he has nothing better to do other than to pick on a relationship that he knows f all about. 😂"
Christine's rage did not wilter, as she continued: "I may get thrown off of Twitter but I don’t care. I am incandescent with rage."
Then, things REALLY heated up when Dan spoke out, responding: "I hope you don’t use that language in the classroom, Mrs Dyer ❤️"
Of course, this did not go down well and she hit back in the best way possible, writing: "No Mr Wooton, I have never had a sanctimonious pr*ck like you in my class."
