Dani Dyer has revealed the name of her newborn son as Santiago, days after giving birth with boyfriend Sammy Kimmence. The Love Island star welcomed her first child on 23 January, sharing a glimpse of the baby on Instagram.

Speaking on the latest episode of her podcast Sorted With The Dyers, alongside her father Danny Dyer, the new mother unveiled the name. The EastEnders actor kicked off the episode announcing, 'I'm a Granddad!' and played a voice memo from Dani.

In the memo, Dani said: 'I know you're all probably wondering what we've called him... his name is Santiago. We are going to be calling him Santi.' She also shared a gurgle from the baby.

Dani and Sammy have been dating for nearly two years, having rekindled their romance in May 2019 after she split from Love Island co-winner Jack Fincham. The podcast is available on Spotify.
