The former ‘Emmerdale’ star - who was last year’s winner of ‘I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here’ - has seen his Cannon Professional Acting company go into liquidation.

Documents submitted to Companies House reveal the firm - which Danny has an 80 per cent share of - has folded with £117,527 worth of debt.

Of that figure, £36,990 is unpaid VAT, £29,691 is unpaid corporation tax and £1,866 is unpaid PAYE/NIC contributions to the UK government.

The sum also includes £18,449 owned to Barclays bank in a bounce back loan with £29,930 tied up in a bank overdraft.

This comes more than a year after the 31-year-old actor left his role as Aaron Dingle on ITV soap 'Emmerdale', a part he had played in two separate stints from 2008 to 2012 and then 2014 to 2021, to head to Gwrych Castle in Wales to compete on the gruelling reality TV show fronted by Ant and Dec.

Danny's reason for going on 'I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here!' was to get a big pay day for his family, fiancée, Steph Jones and their baby son Albert, who was conceived with the help of IVF.

He previously said: "I was going to say no to the show because I didn't think it was the right time.

"Steph was the one who said, ‘You need to do it for us and to set us up’. Without this show, I wouldn't have been able to leave 'Emmerdale' and it's all good saying that I wanted to go out there and show people who I am and stuff, but financially I'm not going to lie, without her, I wouldn't have been able to do the show."

Danny has just landed a lucrative contract to play the lead in pantomime 'Jack And The Beanstalk’ at the Alhambra Theatre in Bradford this coming December. He will star in the production with 'Ru Paul’s Drag Race UK' runner-up Divina De Campo and Billy Pearce among other cast members.
