Dani Dyer’s family are reportedly ‘relieved’ after the Love Island star is said to have split from Sammy Kimmence after he was sentenced to 42 months in prison.
Kimmence, 25, appeared at Portsmouth Crown Court in person on Wednesday to learn his fate after pleading guilty to conning pensioners out of £34,000.
The court heard how Kimmence, who welcomed son Santiago with his Love Island star girlfriend in January, took money from two men aged 90 and 80 between 2016 and 2018. He had claimed he would invest the money through his company S&S Trading Ltd but did not do so.
Reality star Dani was said to be ‘distraught’ with it being reported that she had split from him following the sentencing.
A source has since said that her family, including her EastEnders star dad Danny Dyer, are ‘relieved’ at them parting ways.
‘Dani’s dad Danny and her whole family are relieved she’s walked away,’ a source said.
They added to OK!: ‘They think this is for the best. They’ve told her she’ll never be alone as a single mum as they’ll always help her to raise Santiago.’
Dani is thought to be ‘broken’ after the sentencing.
A source told Metro.co.uk: ‘She is absolutely floored by what’s happened with Sammy. She knows she has to make massive changes in her life and she is so distraught she needs time to think things through.
‘Sammy completely downplayed the court case every step of the way and led her to believe he hadn’t done anything too serious and he would get a suspended sentence.
‘Now she knows the full horror of the crime. She is broken. She feels desperately sorry for the two men he scammed and whose lives he ruined.’
The 24-year-old welcomed baby Santiago with Sammy earlier this year.
The reality star has not publicly commented on Kimmence since the court date, instead showing herself preparing for a trip away with her seven-month-old son.
She shared videos of her preparing wash bags for their trip, including one with Santi’s name on it, adding: ‘Holiday packing and Santi’s stuff takes up most of the room already. I overpack as it is but with a baby OMG!’
Dani also spoke about how weaning the baby was going, revealing that he wasn’t super keen on the meals she had prepped for him and prefers baby food that comes in jars instead.
Dani and Sammy were in a relationship before she entered the Love Island villa in 2018, but reconciled after she and ex-boyfriend Jack Fincham split.
Metro.co.uk has contacted reps for Dani Dyer and Danny Dyer for comment.
