Dancing On Ice 2021: Who is left in the competition?
Dancing On Ice is about to hit movie week – and with five stars left in the competition, it’s all to play for as the finale gets closer.
After it was announced that the series will be cut a week short due to the number of accidents and injuries, the remaining celebs have managed to hold out to the quarter final.
So who exactly is still participating this year’s ‘cursed’ 13th series?
Here’s who’s left in the running, who’s been eliminated, and which stars have had to drop out early…
Who is left in Dancing On Ice 2021?
The current remaining contestants are:
Faye Brookes
The Coronation Street star has been a fan favourite, but has been blasted by judges for her stumbles in routines.
Last week, it was announced that her pro partner Hamish Gaman had to withdraw after tearing his tendon putting on a sock.
Matt Evers, who was originally partnered with Denise Van Outen, has taken his place.
Sonny Jay
The Radio DJ has been playing solidly in the competition, and has thankfully only had minor bruises and injuries as a result of training.
He is partnered with Angela Egan for the competition.
Lady Leshurr
Lady Leshurr is partnered with Brendyn Hadfield for this year’s competition.
The pair have landed in the skate-off twice, beating Myleene Klass and Amy Tinkler to remain in the competition.
Colin Jackson
The sportsman has Klabera Komini as his skate partner for this year’s competition.
He has been in the skate-off once, beating Matt Richardson to remain on the show.
Rebekah Vardy
Rebekah fell into the skate-off in week three but has come back with a vengeance with dance pro Andy Buchanan ever since.
The couple are the only stars to attempt the headbanger this season – named for how likely it is for you to crack your head on the ice.
They managed to nail it during the Valentine’s special, where they played Ross and Rachel from Friends and skated to theme song I’ll Be There For You.
Who has left Dancing On Ice 2021 so far?
The celebs who have left so far by public elimination are:
- Myleene Klass (1st eliminated)
- Graham Bell (2nd eliminated)
- Matt Richardson (3rd eliminated)
- Amy Tinkler (4th eliminated)
However, a further five contestants have had to pull out on medical grounds – be it injury or positive coronavirus test.
In order, these are:
- Denise Van Outen (dislocated shoulder after fall on the ice)
- Rufus Hound (positive coronavirus test)
- Billie Shephard (bye week after death of grandmother, then got concussion)
- Joe Warren-Plant (positive coronavirus test)
- Jason Donovan (back injury)
This is the first year that both reserve celebrity contestants have been called in – with Amy Tinkler replacing Denise, and Matt Richardson replacing Rufus.
