Danny looked relaxed as he donned a pair of blue skinny jeans and a t-shirt under a long jacket for the outing.

After strolling along the street, Danny hopped into his new Bentley and flashed a glimpse of the SUV’s luxurious interior.

Bentley’s previous SUV model has been around for a number of years and prices start around £160,000, reports official dealer H.R.Owen. 

It comes after Danny was reported to be EastEnders’ highest paid star, with insiders telling The Sun that he is paid £400,000 a year to play Mick Carter.

This is said to be around £100,000 more than Adam Woodyatt, who plays Ian Beale in the hit soap. 

As well as his work on EastEnders, Danny records podcast Sorted With The Dyers and also does presenting work on shows such as on The Wall.

She later added: ‘I’m not an insecure girl in this relationship. My fella knows what he has at home. I have plenty of boy mates.’ 

Later Sammy defended himself on Instagram Stories by sharing a video of CCTV footage that showed him returning home before midnight.

London is currently in the second tier of the government’s COVID-19 restrictions, meaning different households should not mix indoors and follow the new ‘Rule of Six.’

Households may only mix if they are part of the same support bubble, or for other legal exemptions.

Dani and Sammy have been living together as they prepare to welcome their first child together in January.
