Dani Dyer and West Ham’s Jarrod Bowen Tie the Knot in Bridgerton-Inspired Countryside Wedding

A Love Island Star and a Premier League Forward Say 'I Do'

Who would’ve imagined a reality TV winner and a Premier League footballer would walk down the aisle surrounded by the air of Regency England? On May 31, 2025, Dani Dyer—not just the daughter of EastEnders’ Danny Dyer but also a Love Island winner with her own celebrity spotlight—married West Ham’s Jarrod Bowen in a ceremony that was anything but ordinary.

Let’s set the scene: rustic expanses of the English countryside, an outdoor altar draped in pastel florals, and a guest list slimmed to an intimate 50—the kind of gathering where every face is familiar, every smile real. But the standout touch? The entire day carried a Bridgerton vibe, with high-waisted gowns, vintage table settings, and garden party details clearly inspired by the Netflix hit. Dani, always a fan of the Regency-themed drama, went full period romance for her big moment.

Bowen, the West Ham and England striker, looked every bit the leading man. And taking on the important job of walking his daughter down the aisle, Danny Dyer was bursting with pride. The moment didn’t end with the ceremony—Danny couldn’t help but gush in interviews, calling Bowen "amazing" and poking a bit of fun at their growing family bond. You could sense it wasn’t just a marriage, but the official merging of two strong family circles.

The couple’s story hasn’t exactly been hidden. They made things public in late 2021, welcoming twin daughters soon after. The vibe at the ceremony—simple, personal, far from glitzy tabloid excess—matched how they’ve handled their relationship: open, but just for friends and family. When Dani posted wedding snapshots to her Instagram, captioned simply “The Bowen’s,” followers were quick to spot the new surname—she really meant it when she said ‘I do’ to the whole package.

So, while most celebrity weddings aim for spectacle, this one went for heart. Guests reportedly included a tight-knit mix of friends, football teammates, and a few TV names. Instead of fireworks and acrobatics, it was all garden games, candlelit dinners, laughter, and enough nods to Bridgerton to make Netflix producers jealous. No wild headlines, just a couple making a promise in front of the people who matter most.

What’s Next for the Newlyweds?

You’d think settling down would take them out of the spotlight, but both Dani and Jarrod have big plans ahead. Besides handling their young twins, the new Mrs. Bowen will soon share the screen again with her dad on Sky TV’s much-anticipated series, The Dyers’ Caravan Park. This time, it’s less soap opera, more quirky reality, as the duo tackles the ups and downs of running a holiday park in Kent. Expect plenty of family banter, countryside mishaps, and a slice-of-life story that’s much more real than most scripted TV.

As for Jarrod, don’t expect his day job to change. He has West Ham fixtures to focus on and now a wedding band adding to his lineup of responsibilities. The couple’s ability to keep things low-key—even when everyone’s watching—might be their best trick yet.

If anyone thought a Premier League love story meant flashy venues and even flashier headlines, Dani and Jarrod just rewrote the script. They showed that you can blend stardom, romance, and two very different worlds, all while keeping things grounded—and a little bit Bridgerton, just for fun.
