Dani Dyer announces she's pregnant with first child with Sammy Kimmence

Dani Dyer has announced she's pregnant with her first child.

The Love Island winner broke the exciting news on Instagram as she posed alongside boyfriend Sammy Kimmence.

Dani, 24, revealed she was feeling 'lucky and grateful' as she also shared with fans her ultrasound picture.

The mum-to-be wrote in the caption: " Little bubba can’t believe you are going to be ours.

"Me and Sammy are so excited to start this next chapter in our lives, feel so lucky and grateful."

The happy news comes a day after Dani brushed off rumours about her split with Sammy this year.

Dani and the stockbroker split for four weeks back in March before deciding to get back together.

Speaking to OK! magazine about their rocky few months, Dani said: "We didn't even really [break up], it wasn't even a thing. It just got made into a thing."

The on-off pair dated before Dani shot to fame on Love Island 2018 but separated ahead of her stint in the villa.

Dani then went on to win the show after falling for Essex pen salesmen Jack Fincham - only for them to break up less than a year later.

Weeks after her shock split from Jack, rumours began to swirl Dani had reunited with ex Sammy before pictures emerged of them snogging in the street confirmed the relationship was back on.

In her most recent interview, Dani described Sammy as her 'best friend' and said she loved how much he gets on with famous dad Danny Dyer.

She revealed: "We're really good, he's my friend, he's like my best mate…so it just works.

"We really get on he's so easy. It's been pretty chilled."

Addressing Sam's relationship with her EastEnders actor father, Dani said: "They've always have got on, which makes it a lot easier.

"It's always a bit scary the first few times and you think, 'Oh my god' but he's fine now it's all easy."

Rumours had been rife the couple had split up in March but by April things seemed to be back on track as Sammy called Dani his 'rock' in a gushing Instagram post.

A source close to the couple said Dani had felt as though she couldn't trust Sammy and called things off but he tried desperately to win her back.

"Sammy wasn't going to let her walk out of his life without a fight and begged her to spend some time with him.

"Since going into lockdown, Sammy has been pulling out all the stops to make Dani give their relationship a second chance," an insider told The Sun.
