Dani told the Daily Star Sunday: "They wouldn’t let me in it [EastEnders].

"They won’t let me, and are like, ‘it ain’t going to happen’.

“I think it’s because my dad is already on it so if I went on it there would be a massive outrage.”

Clearly, we can only speak for us, but far from being outraged if Dani showed off her acting chops alongside her dad, we would be DELIGHTED.

There's still time EastEnders bosses, make it happen.

But if the BBC soap doesn't come a-knocking, Dani could always go over to the dark side (ITV). Loose Women are apparently desperate to sign her up. It's a yes from us.
