He told Closer: "I think I'm in love with him. He plays for West Ham and he's unbelievable, this guy. He comes in my house, I take his shoes off for him and I give him the remote control, and I say, ‘Mate, this is your house now.’ He's an incredible person. I can't wait to give Dani away, but I still think that he's marrying the wrong Danny Dyer. Honestly, I feel sorry for my other daughter, who's nearly 18, because she could never bring home a man to match what Jarrod’s done for me. She could bring home a heart surgeon or somebody who cures cancer and I’ll go, ‘Well, really? Jarrod's got the winning goal in a European final.’ I couldn't have written a better script. He's just such a beautiful man."
THE BIGGER PICTURE
Bowen has carved out a superb career of his own, chalking up multiple England caps, winning West Ham the Europa Conference League, and earning club legend status. And it seems he can do no wrong in the Dyer family going by his future father-in-law's comments.
