DANI Dyer eats Brussels sprouts only when her footballer fiancé Jarrod Bowen is away — because they make her blow off.
The former Love Island winner, 28, insists she adores the leafy little vegetables but says they play havoc with her digestion.

Not only do they leave her blowing bubbles — they can have a laxative effect.
So she waits for West Ham star Jarrod, also 28, to be playing a game away from home before she dares tuck in.
She said: “I love my veg, but Brussels just don’t feel very safe around me.”
Mum-of-three Dani spoke of her wind woes on her Live and Let Dyers podcast, on which she appears with ex-EastEnders dad Danny, 47.
She said: “Brussels don’t agree with me. They give me a really bad stomach — but I love them so much.
“It’s a little bit like a laxative for me. I wouldn’t eat Brussels and sit in a car for four hours. I love them.”
“It’s just I’m a little bit ‘Eh’ — I can’t really go into too much detail how it is.
“But I do love Brussels. I wouldn’t mind eating Brussels if Jarrod had an away game.”
She also said health-conscious Jarrod has an app that scans bar codes of items in their kitchen for how many calories they have — and can find healthier alternatives.
Dani said: “Grated cheese – ooh, you shouldn’t have that. It’s bad. Now he’s getting me obsessed with this app going around scanning everything.”
And one baby food brand is a hit.
She said: “What is really good is the Ella’s Kitchens, which made me feel good.”
