Love Island winner Dani Dyer is set to return to the radio airwaves by hosting a special Bank Holiday Monday show on Capital.

The reality star returns to the station after co-hosting its breakfast show alongside regular presenter Roman Kemp earlier this month.

Dyer said: “I’m so excited to be on Capital on Monday. It’s amazing and so overwhelming, I woke up this morning with a right little spring in my step.

“I can’t believe that people want to listen to me – good luck to them. I’ve been having loads of fun when I’ve been in the Capital studio recently and I’ve always loved listening to the radio.”

During her previous on air stint, Dyer received a prank call from her father, EastEnders actor Danny Dyer.

Dyer, who was named the winner of the ITV2 dating series alongside Jack Fincham, took a call and question from a mystery guest named Johnny.

Masquerading as Johnny, Dyer’s soap star father asked her how she was getting on in the “Do Bits Society”, a phrase coined by Love Island’s Wes Nelson to reference the amorous escapades of couples during their time in the villa.

Dyer’s three-hour show will start on Capital at 7pm on Monday. The reality star dropped a hint about the type of music listeners can expect to hear.

She said: “Post Malone and Ariana Grande are a couple of my favourite artists and I just love music that makes you want to get up and dance, which is exactly how I want to make people feel when they tune in.”

Dyer’s show can be heard on 95-106 FM, on digital radio, on mobile via the My Capital app and the Global Player and online at capitalfm.com.
