EastEnders hardman Danny Dyer has showed off his soft side by planting a kiss on his little grandson’s head.
The 43-year-old actor, who’s played Mick Carter in the BBC soap since 2014, looked completely in love baby Santiago during a family BBQ over the weekend.
Danny and his wife Joanne, 44, hosted the gathering, which daughter Dani, 25, and her five-month-old son attended.
The former Love Island champion posted the sweet snap of her father cradling his grandson as well as a series of other snaps of herself cradling her little bundle of joy.
In one photograph, Dani posed for a mirror selfie with Santiago in her arms, while another showed her outside holding her little boy while wearing an orange dress.
She also showed Santiago cooling off in the shade as he lay on a baby mat.
Unsurprisingly, Dani’s social media post caught the attention of her 3.4 million followers.
One fan gushed: “Gorgeous pictures.”
A second person posted: “Wow hope I look this good when I finally have a baby, hopefully soon. Mom goals, you look so beautiful and look such a natural mom. Hats off to you xx.”
Another added: “Some lovely photographs complementing your unique beauty together with your little cutie.”
While a fourth social media user wrote: “Awwww looking beautiful.”
Dani and boyfriend Sammy Kimmence welcomed little Santiago into the world in January this year.
The reality star is set to make her EastEnders debut on Tuesday evening alongside her father.
She will play a taxi driver named Jeannette, who comes to the rescue of Queen Vic landlord Mick.
Mick promises wife Linda (Kellie Bright) that he will be there for her when she attends her baby scan, but a series of obstacles throw a spanner in the works.
That is, until Jeanette arrives in her black cab, and offers to take him where he needs to go.
