Dani Dyer and her father, Danny Dyer, created a stunning family spectacle at the Rolling Stone UK Awards 2025, held at Camden's iconic Roundhouse in London. The former Love Island star, 29, and the EastEnders actor, 48, commanded attention on the red carpet, with Dani opting for a breathtakingly glamorous look while her dad took on hosting duties for the prestigious ceremony.
Red Carpet Glamour and Stylish Statements
Dani Dyer captivated onlookers in a glitzy black sheer gown that featured a structured corseted bodice and an intricate bejewelled lace overlay. The strapless design elegantly showcased her legs through the delicate fabric, creating a dramatic and sophisticated silhouette. She completed the ensemble with striking black and silver chain heels, cementing her status as a fashion icon for the evening.
Meanwhile, host Danny Dyer cut a dapper figure in a black satin double-breasted suit, accessorised with a sparkling bejewelled brooch and classic aviator sunglasses. The actor expressed his excitement about hosting the event, telling fans: 'Alright then you lovely lot, I am buzzing to be hosting the ZYN Rolling Stone UK Awards 2025. It's going to be bigger and better than ever and I can't wait to get amongst it. Let's have it!'
Major Award Nominees and Categories
The nominations for this year's awards showcased the incredible talent across the UK music and entertainment industries. In the highly competitive Artist Award category, nominees included Joy Crookes, Lewis Capaldi, Little Simz, Obongjayar, Olivia Dean and Sam Fender.
The Album Award, supported by ZYN, featured an impressive shortlist including FKA twigs's EUSEXUA, The Last Dinner Party's From the Pyre, Little Simz's Lotus, Pulp's More, Sam Fender's People Watching and Wolf Alice's The Clearing.
For Song of the Year, music fans saw Central Cee and 21 Savage, CMAT, Olivia Dean, RAYE, PinkPantheress and Wolf Alice battling for the top honour. Oasis received nominations in two categories - The Group Award and The Live Act Award - following their massively successful reunion tour.
The television category saw Stephen Graham nominated for his work on Adolescence, competing against Jack Rooke for Big Boys and Sally Wainwright for Riot Women. Little Simz also earned a film nomination for her role in Netflix's Steve, while Cynthia Erivo received recognition for Wicked: For Good.
A Journey of Personal Triumph
The glittering awards ceremony comes after Dani recently opened up about her father's difficult past with drug addiction. She revealed on Jamie Laing's Good Company podcast that Danny had undergone two stints in rehab, with his first attempt undermined by trading cream eggs with diazepam with another patient.
'The second time he went in I knew it was serious,' Dani explained. 'We always say if he didn't go into rehab he wouldn't be here now because he was terrible, absolutely terrible. He always says EastEnders saved him.'
Danny has been candid about his transformation, crediting his role as Mick Carter in EastEnders with providing the stability and purpose he needed to rebuild his life. Following his second, more serious rehabilitation, he made significant lifestyle changes, cutting approximately 70% of negative influences from his social circle.
The evening also featured a performance from Fayth Ifil, currently starring in Just For One Day: The Live Aid Musical, adding to the celebratory atmosphere of one of the UK's most anticipated cultural events.
