Love Island fans convinced Danny Dyer is going into the villa after picture of EastEnders star in an airport surfaces
DANNY Dyer has sparked hope he's going into Love Island after he was spotted at the airport yesterday.

A special "meet-the-parents" Love Island episode is slated for late July - although it was unclear whether Danny's TV commitments would allow him to attend.
The odds have now plunged after Twitter account Love Island Reactions shared the pic of him waiting for his hand luggage in the airport departures lounge late last night.
They captioned it: "Danny Dyer has been reportedly seen at a airport, we hope he’s going into the villa!"
Fans went wild after seeing the photo, with one writing on Twitter: “OMG hope he's going to the villa eeeee!”

Dani and her pen salesman boyfriend Jack are the heavy favourites to win the show and the £50,000 prize which goes with it.
In past series parents have entered the show days before the final and fans have speculated furiously since the first episode about whether the Football Factory and EastEnders actor could make a surprise appearance at the Love Island villa.
However, it was never confirmed if Danny could make it.
Earlier this month he got fans dreaming of a Dyer reunion at the idyllic villa when he posted on Twitter on July 5 that he was bound for Spain.
The 40-year-old tweeted: "I've only gone and made the shortlist for the TV choice awards. If you fancy it whack a vote my way.
