Dancing on Ice’s final names added to full line-up as Coronation Street and Emmerdale stars are confirmed
DANCING On Ice’s final two names have been confirmed – taking the total number of stars to 12.
Ryan Thomas, famous for playing Corrie‘s Jason Grimshaw, and Roxy Shahidi, Emmerdale‘s Leyla Harding, were unveiled as the line-up’s remaining faces.
The soap star pair were revealed live on Steph’s Packed Lunch on Channel 4 this afternoon.
Asked what she was hoping to get out of the experience Roxy, 40, joked: “A new kitchen.”
She added: “In all seriousness, I do think it’s going to be amazing. I was really excited about doing it to begin with because I get to wear tights, sequins, big hair.
“In my mind I was visualising myself ice-skating really well and winning. Cut to me signing my contract and I went into an absolute meltdown.
“I do think it’s going to be an amazing journey, an adventure.”
Ryan, 39, speaking about his brother Adam who is currently appearing on Strictly Come Dancing, said: “I do need to beat him.”
The final two names were revealed after The Sun exclusively revealed the full Dancing on Ice line-up, which included TV, sports and music stars.
Other celebs in the line-up include S Club’s Hannah Spearritt, boxer Ricky Hatton and Gogglebox veteran Stephen Webb.
They are joined by Corrie’s Claire Sweeney, ex-EastEnder Ricky Norwood and Love Islander and West End star Amber Davies.
Long jump legend Greg Rutherford, comedian Lou Sanders, reality personality Miles Nazaire and Radio 1 DJ Adele Roberts complete the 2024 line-up.
The stars will start training almost immediately ahead of the show, which is set to return to screens in January.
