Emily Atack drops Disney+ reality show to team up with Danny Dyer – Can this hot duo spark a comeback amid ITV’s controversial cuts?
Emily Atack has reportedly backtracked on a fly-on-the-wall reality show after taking Disney+ by storm in Rivals.
The TV personality, 35, thrilled fans with her performance in Rivals, where she played the ‘extr3mely pr0m1scuous’ wife of the Deputy Prime Minister, Sarah Stratton.
She was recently pictured on set, busy filming season two of the racy Disney+ series and has been preoccupied with preparing to front a brand new game show.
But now, the mum-of-one has reportedly pulled out of another programme she was working on, The Sun reports.
Emily welcomed her son last year with partner Alistair Garner and she was apparently in talks with Disney+ about a reality show centring around her motherhood journey.
An insider told the publication: ‘It’s not entirely clear why she didn’t pursue the show, particularly as it would have proved very lucrative to be working with the streaming giant.

‘It would almost certainly have proved very popular with viewers too. But it’s fair to say she would have struggled time-wise to fit it in alongside all her other projects and, of course, her most important job of being a mother.’
MailOnline has approached Disney+ for comment.
It comes after it was revealed Danny Dyer and Emily are set to be ITV’s next hosting duo as they ‘sign up’ to front a brand new game show.
Bosses at the broadcaster have reportedly brought in the pair in a bid to ‘freshen up their entertainment talent’.
An insider told The Sun: ‘Bosses have been impressed with Danny and Emily’s charisma on Rivals and thought they’d make an amazing duo on-screen to freshen up their entertainment talent.
‘They’re an unlikely pair but have appeared on a few panel shows together and have plenty of fun energy that is perfect for the tone that ITV want to set.
‘Producers are keen to trial new presenting partnerships to get people talking, and both Emily and Danny have huge appeal.’
The publication reports they’re set to receive a whopping £250,000 each, with the show expected to air next year.
While last month Emily took to Instagram to mark their ‘beautiful’ son’s first birthday.

Emily shared photos that highlighted Barney’s first year – including from when the star gave birth to him, and recent pictures of the trio enjoying family life.
Captioning the images on Instagram, she wrote: ‘Happy 1st birthday to our son Barney James Garner. The Baby Barn Owl.
‘I’ve dreamt of you my whole life. It was always you. I love you beyond words, our beautiful, BEAUTIFUL boy.
‘You are so cherished my heart could burst.’
