Katie Price’s Alex Reid says he ‘strangled Danny Dyer’ after EastEnders star insulted him and called him ‘a mug’
The pair had a bust up in Alex's gym
ALEX Reid revealed he wrapped his hands around Danny Dyer's throat during a bust up in his gym.
The cage fighter-turned-actor was riled by comments the EastEnders star made when he was married to Katie Price.
After telling he'd like a role in EastEnders, it was suggested he could have an on-screen punch up with Danny's character in the soap, Mick Carter.
Alex said: "I've got a bit of history with Danny.
"We cleared the air last time I saw him. He said horrible things about me when I was with my ex wife and called me a mug. I said, "If I ever see him I'll beat him up," then I saw him filming a TV show in my gym.
"I don't remember much except I had my hands round his throat! He said sorry. I saw him at an event last year and we were lovely."
Last week Alex offered his ex-wife and her husband Kieran Hayler free personal training in exchange for a promo tweet.

The cross-dressing bodybuilder joked he could help Katie’s third husband “look like me”.
In a post on Twitter Alex – who now runs his own personal training business – wrote: “Everyone at @alexreidpt would be happy to offer @KieranHayler a complimentary online training package to look like me lol😉🤣.”
He went on to offer a session to Katie.
Alex wrote in a cheeky post to his ex-wife: “Hey @MissKatiePrice U can also get a freebie for a tweet as well hahahaha.”
Kieran worked as a stripper in the past and previously showed off a ripped body which rivalled Alex’s.
But he confessed that he has become more “comfortable” in recent years since settling down with Katie and becoming a dad.
