EastEnders fans were left divided after it was revealed Dani Dyer would be making an appearance in the BBC soap alongside her dad.
Love Island 2018 winner Dani is the real-life daughter of actor Danny Dyer, who plays Mick Carter in the show.
However it has been revealed Dani will be appearing in EastEnders alongside Danny.
A TV insider told The Sun: “Soap fans are going to be thrilled to see the father and daughter acting opposite each other.
“Unlike some other celebrities who come up on the show, she won’t be playing herself, she will be a cabbie who picks up Mick in the street.
“But it’s only a small one and not one which bosses are planning on keeping as an ongoing character.”
An EastEnders rep confirmed to Entertainment Daily that Dani will be making her appearance as a cab driver next month.
