Who is Tony Giles ex-wife Danielle Mason?
TONY Giles is the focus of Channel 5's latest four-part docuseries Here Come The Gypsies, but who is his ex-wife Danielle Mason?
Danielle Mason enjoyed a turbulent nine-year relationship with MMA expert and world champion Tony Giles, in which the pair oversaw a marriage, a split, a second proposal followed by another split.
Who is Tony Giles ex-wife Danielle Mason?
37-year-old Danielle Mason is a former Page 3 girl, as well as a glamour model who is the sister of long-time EastEnders star Jessie Wallace.
Her marriage to Gypsy fighter Tony Giles was well-documented on the smash-hit series My Big Fat Gypsy wedding.
Six years after the show's initial release, Danielle starred in a follow-up of the show, which documented travellers and gorgers' (non-travellers) attempts to work together.
Her marriage to Tony Giles eventually broke down in 2012 after he disapproved of her job as a glamour model.
“It was the glamour modelling that drove us apart because he was quite jealous,” she told The Sun Online in 2019.
The pair rekindled, which led to Tony proposing for a second time, though the pair never made it down the aisle for a second time, after Danielle noticed Tony had not changed his Facebook relationship status from 'Single'.
How many children does Danielle Mason have?
Danielle has two children, both from her past relationship with Gypsy fighter Tony Giles.
The couple share a nine-year-old son, Rudy as well as a daughter, Delilah, seven.
Before the pair split again in 2019, Danielle revealed how excited her children were that their parents had patched things up, claiming: "That's all the kids ever wanted. When their dad wasn't there it was always, "Where's daddy?" and when they went to their dad's it was, "Where's Mummy?"
Where is Danielle Mason now?
As of last month, Danielle looks to have sparked a romance with reformed Broadmoor prisoner Ben Hatchett.
The duo met when Danielle appeared on his podcast, before The Sun's exclusive pictures snapped the pair kissing and cuddling in the park.
Ben served time alongside Yorkshire Ripper Peter Sutcliffe and Stockwell Strangler Kenneth Erskine in Broadmoor.
The 31-year-old was released from prison in June last year and has turned his life around. He is now the host of podcast and a published author.

Danielle revealed how their romance blossomed to The Sun, where she explained:
"There was so much chemistry, we started hooking up. He's just so nice.
"We've been seeing each every other weekend. He had a really bad upbringing, but he's turned himself around.
"I was so interested in Broadmoor because there have been big characters there. I was so interested to hear about his time in there."
