Gogglebox star Stephen Lustig-Webb is the next celebrity confirmed to be taking part in the new series of Dancing on Ice.
It follows Stephen stepping down from the Channel 4 show “to move on and explore other opportunities”
Revealing the news exclusively on Lorraine today, Stephen said: “The last time I was on the ice I think I was 14 (years old) so almost 40 years ago. I have been back on the ice since just for a quick spin around, I didn’t fall over so that was a good thing!”
He added: I’ve got a new appreciation for skating. I can see how truly difficult it is. From the comfort of my sofa I was probably a little too judgy, I didn’t realise how hard it is!”
Stephen is the seventh confirmed contestant on the new Dancing On Ice cast.
Earlier today, TV Personality Miles Nazaire joined the line up while yesterday saw Olympic Champion and presenter Greg Rutherford MBE become the latest name announced for the show.
He said: “I like a challenge and I needed a reason to go out and do stuff again and here we are. I want to perform something that’s never been done before, that’s my aim. I’ll go 100,000% on this. I’ll try hard, I’m in no way expecting to be good but I will work as hard as I can.”
Further confirmed names on the current cast are Love Island winner and West End star Amber Davies and S Club 7 singer and actress Hannah Spearritt.
Joining them are actress Claire Sweeney while Ricky Hatton MBE was the first celeb announced last month.
Dancing on Ice will begin its brand new series in the new year, typically launching in January.
