Danny Dyer, the former EastEnders actor, has firmly declined participation in ITV's I'm A Celebrity...
Get Me Out Of Here!, citing potential boredom as his primary reason.
His daughter, Dani Dyer, a former Love Island winner, revealed this while preparing for her debut on Strictly Come Dancing.
Dani, 28, told Express.co.uk, 'Yeah, I would [do the jungle], but he says he never would go on the jungle.
He was like, 'Dan, I'd be bored.
He'd be snoring everyone to death.'' Despite this, the family is excited for Dani's Strictly appearance, with Danny and wife Joanne Mas planning a rare red-carpet outing for the launch on September 20.
Dani added, 'Him and my mum, they're doing like a little date day together because they don't get to do that.
And on the launch show, they're coming together.' The family was thrilled when Dani signed up: 'He was over the moon.
All my family was so excited.
It's such a well-loved show.
So he was like, 'go on!' He goes, 'go on baby.
Go on.'' Strictly's new series features 15 celebrities, including Thomas Skinner, Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink, Claire Sweeney, and Angela Scanlon.
Dani expressed nerves after filming the opening: 'Woke up feeling sooo happy, last night was our first ever show and wow I was absolutely petrified but the feeling I got after was just incredible.' She praised her pro partner and felt 'very, very blessed.' Married to footballer Jarrod Bowen earlier this year, the mum-of-three sees Strictly as her second most amazing opportunity this year.
Danny's refusal contrasts with his openness to other shows, highlighting his preference against jungle isolation.
