Reality TV star Ferne McCann is set to appear on the upcoming series of ITV’s Dancing On Ice, it has been reported.
Ferme, who made her name on ITV’s The Only Way Is Essex, featured on I’m A Celebrity…Get Me Out Of Here! in 2015 before her own reality series titled First Time Mum began airing in 2017 which was later renamed My Family And Me.
The Dancing On Ice rumours come a year after TV star McCann gave birth to a baby girl named Finty with her fiance and property developer Lorri Haines who proposed in July 2022.
She also shares an older daughter with her ex-boyfriend Arthur Collins, who was handed a 20-year jail sentence in December 2017 for carrying out an acid attack in a packed nightclub. Sixteen people suffered chemical burn injuries and three people were temporarily blinded in the incident.
The former TOWIE star has been taking some time out of the spotlight after audio of her slating the victims was leaked. Ferne apologised back in 2022 when she said the comments were “manipulated, edited and taken entirely out of context”.
However, she is now reportedly making her way back on TV by taking part in Dancing On Ice. A source told The Sun: “It’s been a rough few years for Ferne but she has always been an ITV star, with her roots on Towie and then with her first steps into the mainstream on I’m A Celebrity in 2015.
Holly Willoughby and Stephen Mulhern are also said to be returning to present the January 2025 series of Dancing On Ice, according to the Sun. Earlier this year, Holly returned to present the skating competition alongside new host Stephen, who replaced Phillip Schofield after he resigned from ITV having admitted to a relationship with a male This Morning employee. Holly and Stephen previously presented ITV Saturday morning children’s show Ministry Of Mayhem together in 2004.
“The line-up for Dancing on Ice 2025 will be announced in due course,” an ITV spokesperson said.
