Dani Dyer has called Celebrity SAS: Who Dares Wins “the hardest thing [she has] ever done”.
The TV personality, 29, was crowned the victor of Channel 4’s brutal reality show alongside her fellow Love Island star Gabby Allen, 33, and Australian Olympic swimming gold medallist Emily Seebohm, also 33, on Monday (26.01.26) evening, and Dani has now reflected on her unforgettable experience.
On Instagram, Dani wrote: “I can’t believe it’s over!! This was the final episode of @sas_whodareswins on @channel4... this was honestly the hardest thing I’ve ever done, but I learnt so much along the way and really pushed myself out of my comfort zone.
“It’s safe to say I’ll never forget this experience... thanks to everyone who’s watched and supported along the way! Your messages have meant so so much to me.
“Gabby and Emily you got me through it all and I’m so glad I had you both by my side right at the end!! Absolute girl power.”
Dani also paid tribute to Chief Instructor Billy Bingham and his team.
She continued: “Billy, Jason, Rudy and Chris … just thank you for everything, the support, encouragement and constantly pushing me.
“I wouldn’t have got to the end without you all (I know you were just as shocked as I was) you are all legends and so grateful for the opportunity.”
In the final, the trio were revealed to have passed the gruelling selection process, which pitted British celebrities against stars from Australia.
All three competitors came through interrogation in a dramatic final episode that saw the last two male recruits - ex-England rugby star Ben Cohen and Australian former swimmer Mack Horton - decide to voluntarily withdraw under intense psychological pressure.
Delivering his final verdict, the Chief Instructor said: “Eight days ago you came from both sides of the world. 14 arrived. Three stand before us.
“Just because you stand on the finish line doesn’t mean you’ve passed this course. It’s a rare moment to say — congratulations to all three of you. You’ve passed this course.”
Dani said passing the course proved to her that she is “a lot stronger” than she thought.
She reflected: “Every single moment was horrendous. But to hear that I’d passed — it’s the best feeling in the world. If I can do this, I can do anything.
“I definitely am a lot stronger than what I think I am … I can’t believe I’ve actually been able to do it. I’m really proud of myself.”
