Dani Dyer and Jarrod Bowen
Dani and Jarrod have been rumoured to be dating for a while now after they were spotted on a coffee date together. Meanwhile, Dani’s dad Danny is clearly a massive fan of his daughter’s new beau. He reposted Dani’s story to his main grid, captioning the post ‘If Carlsberg made son in laws…’ and tagging both Dani and Jarrod.
It can’t hurt that Jarrod is a star player for Danny’s beloved Hammers. Dani recently revealed in an interview with The Sun:
My dad thinks Jarrod’s a lovely guy. He’s invested in all of the West Ham players – because he supports the team and follows some of them, he’s like: ‘They’re all my friends.’ I’m like: ‘Right, OK, Dad. But he’s always been such a big football fan. As soon as Santi was born, the West Ham babygrows were coming in from Grandad.
Who is Jarrod Bowen?
Herefordshire-born Jarrod, who will turn 25 later this month, has been playing for West Ham United for almost two years now. In 75 appearances for the club, he has so far scored 13 goals. He previously played for Hull City between 2014-2020, where he scored 52 goals in 124 appearances. While he missed out on a spot in the England squad Gareth Southgate named in November, his consistently strong performances on the pitch have led many to predict it won’t be long before he gets picked for the national team.
