2025 Dancing On Ice Contestant Revealed: Ferne McCann Takes on New Challenge
Former The Only Way Is Essex star Ferne McCann has been announced as the first contestant for the upcoming 2025 edition of Dancing On Ice. McCann, who recently made the “really difficult decision” to leave her ITVBe reality show My Family And Me, expressed her excitement for the new challenge during an appearance on ITV’s Good Morning Britain.
“I’m so excited, it’s going to be a huge challenge but I’m excited for the glitz and glamour of the show,” McCann shared with the hosts. This marks a new chapter for the 34-year-old, who has been a familiar face on reality television for several years.
McCann’s decision to step away from her own reality series, First Time Mum, came after a poignant moment with her six-year-old daughter. She revealed that her daughter asked her if she was famous, which led McCann to reconsider the impact of their public life on their family dynamics.
“I know it sounds really contradictory, because we’ve had the reality show, and it’s all Sunday’s ever known, it’s actually… normal for her to film (the) show,” McCann explained. “But it really just stopped me in my tracks, and it made me feel really uncomfortable.”
The reality star, who also appeared on ITV’s I’m A Celebrity…Get Me Out Of Here! in 2015, shares her younger daughter Finty with her fiance, property developer Lorri Haines. Sunday, her eldest daughter, is from a previous relationship with ex-boyfriend Arthur Collins, who was sentenced to 20 years in jail for an acid attack in 2017.
Dancing On Ice has been a staple on ITV, with celebrities taking on the challenge of ice skating under the guidance of professional skaters. Last year, Holly Willoughby returned to host the show alongside Stephen Mulhern, who replaced Phillip Schofield.
Mulhern joined Willoughby after Schofield resigned from ITV following revelations about a relationship with a male employee of This Morning, the show he previously co-hosted with Willoughby. Willoughby also stepped down from This Morning in October of the previous year.
As the anticipation builds for the upcoming season of Dancing On Ice, fans can look forward to seeing McCann grace the ice and take on the exhilarating challenge of mastering the art of figure skating. Stay tuned for more updates as additional celebrity contestants are revealed in the coming weeks.
