Danny Dyer and Mark Wright End Decade-Long Feud with Surprising Truce

BBG News

Their feud has divided two of Essex’s most famous families for more than a decade. 

It appears that I’ve found a resolution between Danny Dyer and Mark Wright, all thanks to the women in their family stepping up as mediators for peace. As a lifestyle expert, it’s always heartening to see families coming together and putting differences aside.

As a devoted admirer, I’ve always regarded these two shining figures as the reigning kings and queens of television. Their families too, have graced our screens with their talents, yet it’s no secret that they’ve often been viewed as competitors in the glamorous world of show business.

Disputes between them started as far back as 2013. That was when Danny, aged 47, accused Mark, who was 38 then, of being ‘overconfident’. It’s said that tensions escalated to a point where they got physical at a charity football match.

Ever since, there have been numerous heated exchanges on social media platforms, often with the families of both celebrities participating. This escalated to a well-known confrontation during the V Festival in 2016.

It seems that the prolonged conflict between the actor and the star from TOWIE has shown signs of easing up. This is indicated by photos of Danny conversing with Jess Wright, Mark’s sister, in the smoking area at the BAFTA TV Awards this month, following his recent victory.

To The Sun she mentioned: ‘We have no issues with them. I haven’t encountered them personally, but Danny has been spending time with Jessica. He bumps into her at the gym occasionally and he recently saw her at an event a few weeks back. They were both present, and from what I know, they get along just fine. There’s nothing suspicious going on.’

As a devoted follower, I am rumored to share a close friendship with Dani Dyer, the eldest child of Danny. We are said to keep in touch through regular messages and maintain a connection via our shared Instagram accounts.

In addition to praising Mark’s newborn daughter Palma, Jo and his wife Michelle Keegan expressed their feelings, mentioning that they wished Dani had given the same name to her daughters as well.

She expressed: ‘Have you heard what I adore? I’m fond of the name Palma. I told Dani, “Wow, it’s amazing we didn’t call your daughters Palma.” That’s the place where my father originates from.’

According to a source, the publication learned that Mark and Danny no longer harbor any ill feelings towards each other. Instead, they are focusing on their respective careers, behaving much like ordinary Essex men who are known for their boldness and confidence.

An informant shared this insight: “Since their disagreement, Danny and Mark have matured significantly. They no longer harbor any ill feelings towards one another. In fact, they’ve both taken on family roles, caring for their loved ones. There’s a good deal of mutual respect between them.

‘Both individuals have built their own success through diligence, ensuring they can provide for their loved ones. Danny finds Jess endearing because she consistently greets people warmly and always maintains a friendly demeanor. They reside in close proximity within Essex, often crossing paths at entertainment events due to their social circles.’

A feud between Danny and Mark began in 2013, as Danny publicly expressed his disapproval of Mark during an interview with Digital Spy.

Once, someone mistook me for him, in a café. It really spoiled my mood. To clarify, I don’t personally know him, but his presence in the celebrity sphere represents everything I despise about it.

His statements indicating he aspires to become the next James Bond are primarily the source of my discomfort. If he does indeed become the new James Bond, I fear it spells the end for me. The audacity of such a claim rubs me the wrong way and I find it annoying.

‘Mark’s not up my street, he’ll never be a mate of mine. Good luck to him, just stay away from me.’

Then, according to reports, things got physical in the changing rooms of a charity football match.

At the time Danny became embroiled in a war of words with Mark’s brother Joshua on social media. 

The actor from EastEnders criticized Mark by saying on Twitter, “The most dreadful scenario for me is tuning into Heart FM while enjoying an Oykos yogurt. It would feel like swallowing razor blades.

Mark served as a disc jockey at a radio station, appeared in commercials for a yogurt company, and undoubtedly caught the attention of footballer Joshua from Gillingham Football Club.

As a loyal fan, I might have rephrased it like this: “I can’t help but remember the incident in the locker room where Mark gave you a slap, Malcolm. It seems like it’s still affecting you. Brush it off, old chap, don’t let it melt your resolve, @MrDDyer.

Danny provided more clarity about the incident by saying: “During a charity football game, four terminally ill kids chased after their father. Such a great guy. My girlfriend is tough.

As an ardent admirer, I can’t help but question the account of events you’ve shared, Mr. Dyer. Frankly, it seems to me that you’re prone to exaggeration and, on this occasion, your words led to a physical altercation. You cornered him, leaving him no choice but to defend himself by slapping you. I should clarify that my father wasn’t present in the room during this incident.

It wasn’t an attack. The circumstances were that children with only months left to live were waiting nearby. He’s truly disappointing.

In 2016 at the vibrant V Festival, I found myself in an unexpected predicament when my path crossed with a band of friends belonging to another individual. The encounter with Danny turned out to be quite challenging for me.

During the incident, it’s believed he had disagreements with at least five of the radio host’s friends, even though multiple men were nearby the altercation as seen in photographs taken at the time.

In a rare public statement, Mr. Bigstuff clarified his stance on the recent controversy, openly criticizing Mark for denying any personal involvement in the incident.

He stated: ‘It’s not fitting for a daughter to witness her father getting kicked in the groin by five people. I’m your affectionate partner, dear.’

Mark took to social media only to actively deny claims he was embroiled in the backstage fight.

He posted: “Today, I came across a few tales about the V Festival online. I feel it necessary to clarify that I did not participate in any real-life altercations personally.

Danny responded, “That’s not true. Where were you? Are you going to reveal your connections with those two snakes, Bob? Particularly the one who’s been threatening my Danny?” [Danny’s daughter]

He subsequently posted a photo featuring Mark and six companions from that day, even though it seemed that only five were actively participating.

Title for the image: “Here’s an interesting bunch! Aiding in sabotaging a friend’s career before it took off – legends indeed! Apart from that, I had a fantastic evening. Best, [Your Name].

An early-morning social media post featured a picture of the Marching Powder actor, Danny, alongside his friends, suggesting that he might have a budding shiner.

When Dani criticized Mark’s friends severely for bullying her “tender-hearted” father in a prolonged social media post, that was at the moment.

The Love Island celebrity shared: “I’ll only mention one thing – my father is the most powerful individual I’ve ever encountered. Just because he excels at portraying tough characters in his acting roles, it doesn’t make him a fighter off-screen.

I acknowledge that I was loudly expressing disapproval towards Mark Wright. This was due to the fact that his friends thought it was acceptable to push through my father, who was clearly intoxicated, and I found myself deeply saddened by what transpired as I watched the entire incident unfold.

She added: ‘My father is incredibly compassionate and gentle, he wouldn’t harm even the tiniest insect. A one-on-five situation isn’t just unfair, it’s unjust.’

Yet, I deeply love you, Papa. And it’s precisely because of that love that I wish I could have defended you more sternly. Love always.

Though I adore you, Papa, I felt a strong urge to protect you in that moment. It’s a sentiment I wish I could have expressed more forcefully. My affection remains unchanged.

In addition, Joanne stood up for her husband, asserting that Mark’s companions had formed a group to bully Danny during the music gathering.

She expressed her disbelief, saying, “What was it that Mark Wright’s friends did to my son Danny, right in front of my young daughter? We were supposed to be having a family vacation, and something like this occurs.

Danny isn’t a combative individual; he wouldn’t have chosen to engage in a fight with anyone. Unfortunately, he was surrounded by others. It’s just unbelievable that they did this. I’ve been anticipating seeing Justin Bieber for nine months, and this has spoiled the whole experience.

Joanne likewise criticized Mark’s wife Michelle, posting on X: “Here it is confirmed. I will be promoting ‘MY GIRL’ and the things she saw,” accompanied by the hashtag “#YourTooObviouslyStaged.

This was in response to Michelle promoting her show, Our Girl.

According to a source, everyone was stunned back then. It was like a clash between TOWIE and EastEnders. Things got heated, and security described the scene as chaotic, reminiscent of the Old West.

This morning, Danny stepped out of his tent with what looked like a shiner, yet he maintained a cheerful demeanor.

According to reports, it was the intervention of security that resolved their dispute. Later on, Mark playfully quipped that Danny wouldn’t be able to harm anyone even if he wanted to.

Mark appeared quite upset, spending considerable time on calls. Initially, during his first call, he was clearly agitated, raising his voice significantly. However, by his third call, he seemed to have cooled off.

After the V Festival, the duo have successfully steered clear of any additional public disputes. However, according to a source, this incident is something Danny will never be able to erase from his memory, despite the fact that Mark appears to have moved past it.

2018 saw Mark securing a long-term DJ position at Hotel BH Mallorca, located in Magaluf, reportedly as a means to steer clear of another potential conflict with Danny at a music festival.

However, when approached by TopMob, a representative for Mark had a brutal response to the claim.

In my fervent enthusiasm, let me rephrase: “I’ve been asked, who’s Danny Dyer? Frankly, I can’t help but adore him! As for Mark, he’s landing a major new role starting next week, and we’re all buzzing with excitement!

In the year 2023, upon Danny’s return to Soccer Aid, it became known through The Sun that his decision to wait for a comeback stemmed from his preference not to team up with Mark on the field.

Currently, a source revealed: “Danny has always been passionate about football, and participating in Soccer Aid has long been a desire of his. In the past, he declined to join if Mark was part of the team.

Danny’s thrilled to join in, and he can hardly wait to step onto the field at Old Trafford this evening.
