DANNY Dyer and wife Jo Mas have jetted off on an exotic family holiday just weeks after the actor was embroiled in a texting scandal.

It was revealed earlier this month how Dyer texted a woman while staying at a Kent safari park shortly before his 2016 wedding.

He begged her to send him “some filth” and declared that he felt “nawty” on his stag do.

They have been seen together on dozens of nights out — and pals said Dyer kept their meetings separate from childhood sweetheart wife Jo Mas.

One said: “Danny and Nikki spent a lot of time together around the time he married Jo. They were in touch in the build-up. Danny shared some of his deepest and most private thoughts.”

Last month the duo were snapped hugging at a charity football event in Essex.

Photos on social media show Dyer cuddling Nikki behind the bar of the Queen Vic.

Nikki has also appeared on the soap as an extra, and now works in PR.

A friend of Dyer told how they met through distant relatives and both are diehard West Ham fans.

A source told The Sun on Sunday: “Danny and Nikki go back a long way. He doesn’t trust many people, but she is one of them.
