Chloe Sims looked stunning in a black blazer mini dress as she partied with longtime boyfriend Vas J Morgan in Los Angeles on Tuesday night.

The former TOWIE star, 42, put on a very leggy display in a pair of sheer stockings and a garter belt, as she elevated her frame with pointy heels.

She wore stylish gold hoop earrings and carried her belongings in a Balenciaga handbag.

Vas, 35 – who, like Chloe, shot to fame on TOWIE – showed off his impeccable style in a brown leather jacket and matching trousers.

The TV personality paired a number of accessories with the outfit, including a brown cowboy hat, sunglasses and layered gold chains.

The couple seemed in good spirits as they arrived at actress Caylee Cowan’s 26th birthday.

Caylee turned heads in a nude leather strapless top and matching miniskirt.

The Spinning Gold star added height to her frame in sky-high black heels as she walked hand in hand with Vas

It comes after Chloe and her sisters Frankie and Demi returned to TV screens this month for their reality show House Of Sims season two.

In a trailer ahead of the release of the first episode, the girls had a very explosive argument during filming, which led to Frankie, 28, and Demi, 27, returning to Essex and quitting their American family show.

Things quickly got heated between the sisters when they were spotted having drinks at a rooftop bar before crew members were forced to intervene and separate the siblings.

Chloe told Frankie and Demi to “stop their attitude” after saying earlier in the trailer that she “put them the fuck where they are” in their careers.

As the temperature rose, Chloe grabbed her drink and launched it over Demi, causing their brother Charlie to hold them in a scroll before crew members helped.

As she threw the cocktail, Demi shouted: ‘What the f***, you f***ing c***’, while Frankie called Chloe a ‘piece of s***’.

Raising her voice, Chloe said, “You were rude to me, you’re my sisters. I do not think so!’

As Chloe walked away, Demi shouted after her: ‘You’re embarrassing and a bully. I’m done with her’.

While Frankie added: ‘I never want to see her again.’

As Chloe left the bar, she was joined by brother Charlie and told him she was ‘done with the two of them’.

The intense new series, which aired on OFTV on March 13, also features guest appearances from other former TOWIE stars, including Vas and Charlie’s fiancée Georgia Shults.

Speaking about the new series, Chloe said fans will love watching the reality stars go through the highs and lows as they ‘adjust to life in LA’.

She said: ‘Filming this season was amazing – there was so much happening and we got to do so many things you’ve never seen us do before, from seeing an amazing drag show at Hamburger Mary’s to getting surfing lessons.

“Fans of the show will love it. There are bound to be some tense moments like those in every family, and you’ll see the bumps in the road as we adjust to life in Los Angeles.

Chloe recently revealed that House Of Sims has signed a big-money deal with Netflix.

The TOWIE star, who co-produced the show with her brother Charlie, said working on the series has been ‘one of the highlights of her career’, and filming for the second season is already well underway.

Chloe moved to Los Angeles last year to appear on reality show OnlyFans with her siblings, with the star previously saying she is determined to break the US.

Speaking exclusively to MailOnline about the takeover, Chloe said: ‘Producing two seasons of House of Sims alongside my brother Charlie and starring in them was a very different challenge for me.

‘It’s one of the biggest highlights of my career! When I started at TOWIE over a decade ago, I never imagined I would be producing our own show in LA.

‘It’s not an easy journey, but it’s exciting, nerve-wracking and it keeps me on my toes!’

Katie Price looked like she didn’t have a care in the world as she left as she departed a screening of Celebrity Ex On The Beach hours after being declared bankrupt.

The former glamour model’s second bankruptcy was revealed on Monday, after the star, 45, failed to pay over £750,000 in unpaid tax – and will now face losing her home unless HMRC can recover the money.

But Katie wasn’t letting her financial woes get her down as she enjoyed a night out on Monday evening with Geordie Shore’s Chloe Ferry and TOWIE’S Bobby Norris.

The reality star put on a busty display in a low cut black vest with a cut out detail that highlighted her toned midriff.

She also sported white and blue leather trousers and tied a black leather jacket around her waist.

Beaming from ear to ear, Katie styled her brunette locks into a ponytail and added to her look with a pair of hoop earrings.

Linking arms with her pal Chloe, the mother-of-five completed her look for the evening with a pair of black heels.  

Katie failed to appear at a court hearing in London to explain why she has not paid any money to HMRC.

A judge at the High Court ruled that she be declared bankrupt after an official from HMRC said she has failed to pay any money owed or responded to any correspondence since the demand was made for the unpaid tax last year. 

Katie was speaking to the Mail’s podcast Straight to the Comments! when the news broke, which embraces the hilarity and uniqueness of the MailOnline comment section with the celebs in question, with her episode to air next week.

When told there was a new story about her, Katie gasped in shock and said: ‘Has it? Oh get lost! Are you actually serious, while I’m sat here? What have I done now?’

After hearing that she had been declared bankrupt a second time, she said she had been signed off because of ‘serious stuff’ in her life.

She said: ‘I know I had court last week or the week before. Because of what’s going on in my life, I’ve actually been signed off because I’m dealing with serious stuff.’

Katie went on to claim that she ‘doesn’t get away’ with not paying, insisting that she is making payments.

She said: ‘There’s all different kinds of bankruptcy, I think they just use the word bankruptcy. No one actually knows the ins and outs of everything.

‘And trust me I don’t get away with stuff either. Like you can’t – tax you can’t ever run away from, you have to pay. Don’t think I sit here and don’t pay stuff because I do.’

It is the second bankruptcy faced by Katie as she is being chased by creditors for a £3.2million payment over the failure of her company Jordan Trading Ltd.

Judge Sebastion Prentis sitting at the High Court Rolls Building said Katie had been served with a petition on November 27 2023 with a demand for £761,994.05.

The huge amount is made up of unpaid tax from self-assessment on her earnings from 2020 – 2022 as well as penalties and surcharges.

The court was told she owed £142,405 in tax for 2020-2021 and £196,735 for 2021-2022.

The judge said she also owed £140,000 in unpaid VAT and added:’ As with the unpaid tax no payment has been made.’

Katie was served with papers in October by HMRC informing her of the debt owed – and she has failed to respond to the demand.

The judge said: ‘There is a substantial debt due from Miss Price due to HMRC and therefore I will make a bankruptcy order.’

Katie, who has become known for flouting her surgically enhanced figure on overseas trips, was first made bankrupt in 2019 when her company went bust.

She has failed to appear at an insolvency hearing on six previous occasions with the model submitting an excuse for her no show each time.

Creditors are owed the £3.2million from her company selling perfume and cosmetics.

A HMRC source said every effort will be made to recover the money and if not paid then assets owed by Katie will be seized.

The debt to HMRC could see her lose her £2million home dubbed the ‘Mucky Mansion’ after it fell into a state of disrepair.

The latest court judgement adds to Katie’s woes after she fined last week for another motoring offence.

She was fined £880 after being caught driving a Range Rover at a service station on the A14 in Kettering, Northamptonshire in August 2023 despite having no licence or insurance.

As well as being handed eight penalty points – taking her total to 11 – the mother-of-five was also ordered to pay £972 in costs on top of the financial penalty.

Last month, a judge at the High Court ruled Katie is set to lose nearly half of her monthly income earned on OnlyFans to cover her debts.

A court in London heard from barrister Darragh Connell – who was representing the trustees – that Katie had previously reached a voluntary agreement over her debts but failed to pay up.

He informed a specialist bankruptcy judge that the previous agreement included the TV personality making 36 monthly payments of £12,500 as well as a lump sum.

The trustees went to court to request an income payments order, meaning money would go from any salary towards paying Katie’s outstanding debt.

Four companies were listed, including adult subscription website OnlyFans and celebrity photography agency Backgrid.

At the end of the hearing, Insolvency and Companies Court Judge Catherine Burton declared the four companies are ‘obligated to deduct 40 per cent of the income due to be paid to Ms Price’ each month for the next 36 months.

She added that the 40 per cent portion will now be paid to a bank account chosen by the trustees.

The court was told that Fenix International Ltd, the parent company of OnlyFans was not disputing the order against Katie. 

Judge Barton said that the reality star is due to face further questions about her finances in April.

In October, Katie appeared on Michelle Visage’s Rule Breakers podcast and said she was ‘fed up’ of facing legal action and said she would willingly go to prison to be ‘done with it all’.

She added that she had recently been to court ‘more times than I’ve had hot dinners’ and would ‘genuinely’ not care if she was jailed.

She also told Daisy May Cooper on her Educating Daisy podcast: ‘If they put me into prison, it’s another chapter for the book.’

During an appearance on Jeremy Vine’s Channel 5 show in March last year, the former Celebrity Big Brother star discussed her bankruptcy and how she had been struggling with her mental health in recent years.

She said: ‘You shouldn’t be ashamed if you have a bankruptcy because for different reasons people go into bankruptcy.

‘I went through a really, really tough time the past three years, mental health and this and that.

‘And when you go through that, you might get bills through and you put everything to the side because you can’t cope with anything.’

During a previous court hearing in October 2020, Katie apologised to the court, adding: ‘I just haven’t been able to deal with these issues or in the right mental state to understand everything that has been going on.’

She also said creditors and officials may think her engagement with them is ‘too little too late’ but that the ‘progress is real’ and she had provided financial information.

In July last year, Katie hit back at internet trolls who questioned her over her bankruptcy, insisting she still ‘owns her £2.5million house’. 

Speaking on TikTok Live, she answered questions from her followers, urging internet bullies ‘not to knock anyone’. 

‘I’m bankrupt, yes, but I still own my 2.5million pound house and I’m sat here in the kitchen doing my TikTok to you,’ she said. 

‘Never knock someone who is bankrupt, we all can go there but it doesn’t mean that it is all bad.’ 

Katie continued: ‘Yeah, my company went bankrupt and you deal with it don’t you. So, don’t ever knock anyone because it could happen to you.’

Celebrity Big Brother fans have urged bosses to send Jedward and Gemma Collins into the house to confront housemate Louis Walsh. 

Scandal erupted in the famed house when the talent show judge, 71, said that twins John and Edward Grimes, 32, were ‘vile’ in a conversation on the show, prompting the singers to hit back with a fiery exchange. 

When the scenes aired, Jedward were at former TOWIE star Gemma’s home, where the trio hit back on social media – something fans recalled this week. 

Taking to Instagram ahead of Friday night’s final, fans demanded the brothers and reality great are sent into the house, with users writing: ‘Big Brother are losing out on TV gold if they don’t send Gemma Collins and Jedward to confront Louis Walsh’. 

Another viewer wrote to Jedward: ‘Happy St Patrick’s Day to u both. U two and Gemma Collins should be in the CBBUK house instead of Louis’, while another fans echoed: ‘Or WITH Louis, now that would be good craic!’ 

The new demands come after Louis came under fire from Jedward after his scathing attack on Celebrity Big Brother, with the singing duo brand him a ‘snake’. 

The talent show judge, 71, said that twins John and Edward Grimes were ‘vile’ in a conversation on the show, prompting the singers to hit back with a fiery exchange. 

And now Jedward, both 32, have again slammed the former talent manager as part of a post for St Patrick’s Day. 

‘Happy Paddy’s Day,’ the duo posted on X, formerly Twitter. ‘Hope St.Patrick slays Louis the snake.’

Former contestants of the ITV singing competition leapt to Jedward’s defence this week after Louis’s comments on CBB, hitting out at him on X. 

Katie Waissel, who has previously claimed that her stint on the show back in 2010 ‘ruined her life’, accused Louis of being part of a ‘manipulative and coercive’ environment behind the scenes. 

In an impassioned tweet on Wednesday, the show star stood up for Jedward as she doubled down on her claims that a public inquiry should be launched into the programme. 

Katie shared: ‘@planetjedward firstly, having met you both personally, I can unequivocally state that you are by no means ‘vile’ , if anything you are both absolutely the contrary to this! I stand firmly behind you in your corner, always…

‘What I wish for the general public to take from this, is that Louis Walsh, former XFactor judge, has confirmed and revealed on national television, the tip of the iceberg of abuse, manipulation and coercion that went on behind the scenes on the XFactor, of which myself and many others have spoken publicly about.

‘By stating he (Louis Walsh) made £5million off of Jedward, immediately after calling them ‘vile’ and stating that they made ‘great tv’, in itself, only but further confirms how the show was disturbingly manufactured and manipulated. 

‘This is not the first time a former judge has disclosed contradictory and manipulated tactics to secure contestants, all in the while, completely unbeknownst to the contestants themselves. 

‘All contestants were lead to believe they entered a singing competition, as did the general public.

‘There are serious and significant issues that need to be addressed, and further remedied, by all parties involved in the making, producing and broadcasting of the now cancelled show, XFactor, as well as a public inquiry to be held, to ensure the future of music and television is protected through their findings, to update policy, regulation, and legislation. #CBBUK #LouisWalsh #Jedward [sic].’ 

As one one follower suggested they would like to see Katie and Jedward enter the Big Brother house to confront Louis, Katie revealed she had already approached them, tweeting: ‘I verbatim asked production to give me just five minutes.’ 

Steve Brookstein, who won the inaugural season of X Factor in 2004 with Simon Cowell as his mentor, also didn’t hold back with his criticism of Louis, claiming he had now been vindicated in branding the star a ‘c***’. 

He tweeted on Tuesday: ’20 years ago I said Louis Walsh was a c*** and only now people are realising it. Better late than never.’

Steve has not been shy of sharing his thoughts on Louis and fellow X Factor judge Sharon Osbourne during their time on Celebrity Big Brother, previously sharing: ‘If people saw Sharon Osbourne and Louis Walsh for what they are – they wouldn’t be watching #cbbuk.’  

MailOnline contacted Freemantle, Thames TV, ITV and Louis’ representatives for comment. 

Louis has caused outrage after labelling the twin brothers, John and Edward Grimes ‘vile’, when he was quizzed on what he thought of them by his co-star Colson Smith.

The remarks were one of the latest in a string of bizarre rants about fellow celebs, which have also been aimed at Adele, James Corden and Ronan Keating. 

During the exchange, Louis revealed that he had ‘made £5million’ from the double act during his time as their manager between 2009 and 2013.

Soon after the comments aired on ITV, John and Edward took X to dispute Louis’ claims and branded him a ‘cold-hearted b****d’.

Colson had asked Louis, who managed the pair four four years: ‘What were Jedward like?’

The Irishman replied: ‘They were vile.’

Colson said: ‘They’ve done well’, and Louis said: ‘I got £5million from them. I swear on my mother’s life.’

Clearly impressed, Colson quipped back: ‘B****y hell, I wish I had a Jedward.’

Doubling down on his opinion, Louis added: ‘And they were vile. But they were novelty. It was great for the show. It was all about the show.’

That saw the brothers – now 32 – launch into a series of scathing online accusations in response.

They kicked off by calling him a ‘cold-hearted b****d who didn’t even send us flowers when our mom died’ – the twins lost their mum Susanna to cancer in 2019.

Following the music manager’s remarks, Jedward insisted that ‘justice would be served’, as they continued the tirade on their X account.

One of the tweets shared by the brothers claimed: ‘Louis Walsh is an evil manipulator who forced us into an office to pay £70k from our bank account to one of his own PR workers.’

Another said: ‘Louis Walsh b****d and talked about us to our best friend Tara Reid and then we fired him!’

A final tweet read: ‘Louis reopened these wounds all by himself being spiteful and disrespectful we aren’t going to have our character taken. Justice will be served.’

During the episode, Jedward were having dinner with their close friend and former TOWIE star Gemma Collins.

Gemma quickly jumped to their defence on Instagram as she admitted she ‘couldn’t believe’ what was being said.

She posted: ‘Shocked to see what was said about my boys. They are the sweetest, talented, polite, educated, kind boys I’ve ever met hence why they are always in my company!! TEAM JEDWARD. #Jedward’.

The Irish music mogul Walsh managed the pair between 2009 and 2013, but things turned sour when, in 2016, Walsh described the duo as ‘the most embarrassing thing to happen to him’.

That’s despite boasting of making millions after Jedward’s first two albums went platinum in Ireland, while they also represented their country at Eurovision in 2011 and 2012.

Ironically Louis defended the brothers during The X Factor in 2009 when Simon Cowell called them ‘vile’ – the same term he used in the CBB house.

He argued that they were ‘innocent children’ at the time, when Simon hissed that they were ‘vile little creatures’.

Elsewhere in the Jedward biography, Louis continues to fawn over his charges. He said: ‘You either have that special something or you don’t and I thought that they had it in spades… they are nice to everybody, from the people on the street to the people in the record company – and that’s why they have so many fans.

‘Everyone wants to work with them because they are just so hard-working and genuinely nice. John and Edward make the people that they meet smile and they make them feel special – that is their secret and that is what sets them apart from a lot of people.

‘Their attitude is 100 per cent positive all of the time and that is why they are where they are now.’

Despite that, the twins say in the book that one of their manager’s primary pieces of advice to them was ‘always break the rules’.

John added: ‘Louis always tells us to never follow the rules and always break out and be different: but we don’t attention seek, things just work out well for us.’

But Louis maintained that the quiff-topped singers were the perfect pop stars to work with.

He said: ‘They never complain and they just want to work, work, work – how would I ever regret taking them on?

‘The boys are a manager’s dream and they are having the time of their lives… I wish every act was like that and then there would be no trouble: Jedward are the best-behaved group I have ever came across in 30 years in the business.’

Louis is even quoted backstage before a Dublin show boasting: ‘I have never seen either of them in a bad mood.’

The official book also reveals that in their first flush of fame Louis put the brakes on a proposed appearance for the twins on Celebrity Big Brother in 2010, stating: ‘They just weren’t prepared to give us enough money.’

He bragged by April 2010 that he was turning down countless jobs for Jedward as the money rolled in with the pair booked solid for months.

Louis said: ‘Everyone wanted them, from Celebrity Big Brother to huge magazines, and we have just had to turn down so many people.

‘They can’t be everywhere so we have to go with the best offers for them and things that are going to stand for John and Edward, long-term.

‘They are now signed to Next Models and this is going to be huge for them. If they weren’t pop stars, then they could easily be models – anyone can see that.’

But the brothers would go on CBB a year later – 2011 – alongside when they finished third and became best pals with US actress Tara Reid in the process.

Louis – who once claimed he turned down a million pounds to go in the I’m A Celebrity jungle – then followed suit by going into the house this year.

While furore over Louis’ comments continues to build outside the house, fears have been sparked that he could quit CBB following close friend Sharon’s exit.  

It has been claimed Louis had made it clear he would not sign up for the show without Sharon – meaning he is now at risk of walking.

Sharon was in the house for a week as a ‘Celebrity Lodger’ and headed home on Tuesday night’s live show. It is thought she has been paid £500,000 for the stint.

If Louis does leave, he will still reportedly receive his full fee which is believed to be a whopping six figures.

A source told The Sun of his potential exit: ‘Louis would only go into the show with Sharon booked in there with him. CBB pulled out all the stops to make it happen.

‘They know Louis is a flight risk now Sharon is gone and no one would be surprised if he left. Louis will still receive his full fee, so he has nothing to lose.

‘Without Sharon he will be lost as they have such a close friendship in the house. Everyone is on high alert for Louis to throw in the towel, but he’s making such good television, the producers are praying that he will stay.’

Dancing On Ice’s Greg Rutherford has been forced to quit the show mere hours before the live final. 

The Olympian, 37, was set to battle it all out against Ryan Thomas, Adele Roberts and Miles Nazaire to lift the trophy this Sunday night, with bookies’ calling it the ‘closest final in history’ with the odds on who would win.

Yet his hopes of taking part have been shattered after he sustained a ‘significant’ injury on the morning of rehearsals. 

His pro partner Vanessa James broke the news in an Instagram post on Sunday, sharing: ‘Unfortunately Greg has sustained a significant injury this morning at rehearsals and won’t be able to perform tonight. 

‘We are on our way to the hospital for Greg to get examined further and receive the treatment he needs.’

An ITV spokesperson added in a statement to MailOnline: ‘Sadly Olympian Greg Rutherford MBE has had to withdraw from Dancing On Ice after sustaining an injury whilst in rehearsals for the final episode of the current series. 

‘Greg and Vanessa have been such a popular couple this series and have performed some truly memorable routines. 

‘We will be helping to support Greg and wish him well with his recovery. We also want to thank him for being such a treasured member of the Dancing on Ice family.’

Earlier this week, Greg told The Mirror his time on the competition might be over after sustaining a painful groin injury four weeks ago.

‘I was gutted at first, that’s classic me, an injury right at the wrong time. But due to Sharon, the physio who works for the show, has done a tireless job to keep me going and doing well,’ said the Olympian.

‘We are currently in a situation where, yes, it is still healing and there’s a little bit of soreness and tightness. But I am able to do what we need to do. Thankfully I am here and I’m thrilled to be here as well.’ 

The athlete admitted the last hurdle will be attempting to do the Bolero – although he is ‘happy’ to have made it to the final regardless.

Greg remarked he was also voted best skater out of solo skate, something he called as a ‘really proud moment’.

‘All in all, thrilled to bits, I’m ignoring the fact there’s still a little bit of an injury there but that’s fine. I’m hoping the showcase, everyone loves it, and we get to do the Bolero. Then, who knows at that point, who knows!,’ he added.

Greg previously revealed the show was doing wonders for his health and he was in great shape after losing 7kg since joining the ITV show.

The long jump star added his journey on Dancing On Ice helped him finding a great balance while eating better and training.

Gushing over his experience on the runaway series, Greg admitted he found a ‘complete love and passion’ for ice skating which he ‘didn’t expect to happen’.

The athlete – who is now retired – said the show gave him a purpose for training and ‘feeling better in myself’, which he described as a ‘kick up the bum to stay fit and healthy’.

Elsewhere Ryan Thomas has said that he hopes the final of Dancing On Ice will mean his body can finally recover from undergoing intensive training while on the series. 

The former Coronation Street actor, 39, who played Jason Grimshaw for 16 years will battle it out on Sunday night 

The actor, whose professional skate partner is Amani Fancy, told The Mirror that being nearly 40 meant his body didn’t ‘bounce back as easy’. 

He said: ‘They work you hard and it’s now final week and there’s a lot to take on. And the body’s not far off coming to a standstill. I mean, it takes its toll on your body more than anything else.’ 

Ryan – whose brothers are Strictly Come Dancing star Adam Thomas and former Love Island contestant Scott Thomas – added that his focus was on returning to his family.

He continued: ‘I think that’s the only reason I can get through this because I know at the end, I’ve got my beautiful family to go back to.

‘I live for that, doing the normal every day, taking the kids to school, going to the park, the things I used to take for granted, I will be embracing very much.’

Ryan, shares a daughter Scarlett, 15, with his ex and former Coronation Street star Tina O’Brien, and two children with fiancee Lucy Mecklenburgh, who found fame in TOWIE. 

With the end in sight, Ryan stated that the skating has been getting ‘harder and harder’.

The final of Dancing On Ice is on Sunday at 6.25pm.

Most shocking Dancing On Ice injuries EVER from broken bones and sliced scalps to hospital dashes – amid claims the show could be facing the axe 

Dancing On Ice is back on our TV screens for another series, with the latest intake of celebrities battling it out on the rink.

But every year as the competition hits ITV, there are a number of injuries caused by the treacherous ice – with Greg Rutherford, Ryan Thomas and Roxy Shahidi among the victims this year. 

It has prompted fans recently to questioned the safety of the ITV show following several falls and injuries this series.  

In addition, in 2021 after a series of A&E dashes even before launch night, many viewers took to Twitter to claim that the show was ‘stretching the NHS‘.

And now Dancing On Ice judges Jayne Torvill and Christopher Dean’s decision to retire from skating could signal the beginning of the end for the show following a ratings tumble.

Amid claims the show could be facing the axe MailOnline takes a look at the worst falls and injuries over the year along with a series of other controversies from the show…

Iconic Falls 

Todd Carty surprised everyone (including himself) when he lost his balance and found himself flying down the tunnel during his performance back in 2014. 

Skating alongside his partner Susie Lipanova, suddenly the former EastEnders actor, 60, lost his balance and flew down the tunnel off stage, while Susie completed the routine alone. 

Judge Jason Gardiner said at the time: ‘Todd you’re like a derailed locomotion’, as the star was voted out in week four. 

Meanwhile Gemma Collins took a serious tumble when her graceful routine to Celine Dion’s It’s All Coming Back To Me Now suffered a bump in the road. 

As the TOWIE star, 42, tripped and fell on the rink back in 2019, her professional partner Matt Evers rushed to her aid. 

Returning to the show as an audience member for the show’s Christmas special later that year, she said: ‘I got so excited, I just went too over the top with my movement, which you’re not allowed to do in ice skating and my toe pick got caught – and bang. 

‘I thought I was dead. I literally thought I was dead.’ 

Joe Pasquale managed to fall off the ice in his week one routine to Queen’s Flash.

Skating towards a podium for the finale of the routine, the actor, 62, flew off the ice and landed in a heap, before quickly clambering to his feet and stumbling to the top of the podium for an epic finish.

Host Christine Lampard joked: ‘Well he not only entertained us, I think he possibly winded himself as well.’ 

Injuries on the ice 

Skating is a famously dangerous sport, and contestants are constantly aware of the perils involved while taking part. 

Brookside actress Jennifer Ellison, 40, accidentally struck herself in the head with her skate while trying to perform a tricky manoeuvre back in 2012. 

Despite the injury during the ‘scorpion kick’ she bravely continued to finish her routine, receiving her highest score up until that point. 

The blonde left the ring as soon as her routine ended to receive medical help with blood pouring from her head. 

Meanwhile in 2006, England goal keeper David Seaman accidentally dropped partner Pam O’Connor during rehearsals. 

The footballer attempted to swing his partner round by her feet only to hit her face on the ice and result in a hospital dash. 

Accusations of bullying   

Supermodel Caprice Bourett accused pro Hamish Gaman of bullying after she exited the show after two weeks in 2020. 

Reports claimed she was ‘poised to sue ITV over the fallout’ and allegations that the skater ‘gaslighted’ her in tough training sessions. 

Caprice was said to have complained about Hamish and the duo were assigned a supervisor to watch their rehearsals.

Despite the allegations, ITV said they ‘found no evidence of bullying’ on the show. 

ITV told MailOnline at the time: ‘We take allegations of bullying very seriously but found no evidence on Dancing On Ice and we strongly refute any suggestion to the contrary.

‘We’re very proud of the team, both on and off screen. They produce a fantastic show and we are committed to ensuring that everyone who works on the programme is fully supported.’

On screen arguments 

Former judge Jason Gardiner, 52, left the show four years ago, following a series that saw him at loggerheads with contestant Gemma Collins. 

The drama between Jason and Gemma played out on the 2019 series, with them at each other’s throats during the critiquing.

It eventually reached boiling point when the TOWIE star accused the judge of ‘selling stories’ about her and her apparent poor work ethic. 

The uproar eventually cost Jason his job on the show and he was replaced in 2018 by John Barrowman, 56 – before he faced the chop due to accusations of inappropriate behaviour. 

But his altercation with Gemma wasn’t his first after he found himself face to face with Denise Welch’s then husband Tim Healy back in 2011. 

After Jason described Denise and Matt’s routine as ‘watching two people playing Twister’ and called her upbeat routine from the week before ‘abysmal’ Tim decided to take matters into his own hands. 

As the audience cheered the Benidorm actor went face to face with Jason as he said: ‘Listen mate she’s 52 and she’s got four jobs, how many jobs have you got?’

‘Oh my God you’re breath!’ exclaimed Jason as he dramatically wafted the air, as Holly joked: ‘You mess with Denise you mess with her husband’. 

Backstage romances 

Just like its rival Strictly Come Dancing, the ITV show is no stranger to the dreaded curse and stars finding love with their professional partners.  

Coronation Street’s Samia Ghadie, 41, split from her co-star Will Thorp and found happiness with French skater Sylvain Longchambon, 43, – with whom she is now married and shares a son.

The budding romance also saw Sylvain split from Hollyoaks’ Jennifer Metcalfe, 40, after also meeting her on the ITV show. 

EastEnders’ Shona McGarty and former co-star Matt Lapinskas ended their romance during his stint on the series, reportedly due to his relationship to partner Brianne Delcourt.

The actor went on to date the professional for a year before the stunner dumped him amid cheating allegations.

David Seaman, 60, also found love with pro Frankie Poultney, 49, after retuning to the show for a second later making her his third wife. 

 Judges battling it out

One of the show’s most memorable moments was Jason and head coach Karen Barber’s on air argument. 

After Karen attempted to offer constructive criticism Johnson Beharry VC, acid-tongued Jason jumped in with a put-down. 

Attacking the former judge he said: ‘Karen if your opinion mattered, you’d still be on the panel’. While Karen clapped calling him ‘offensive’ and questioned what he brought to the show.

Once again finding himself in trouble with bosses Karen reportedly saved him from getting the sack.

Podcast host Fatou, from Los Angeles, admits she grew up wanting to be from Britain, so she immersed herself in all things related to the country.

Her taste in music, TV shows she watched and even her celebrity crushes were all influenced by the British – so much so that people online are calling for her to be named an ‘honorary Briton’.

A TikTok that she posted under handle @fa2chainzwhich reveals her fascination has already been seen by more than 1.2 million people.

The American captioned the clip: ‘I’m English babes, I don’t care. I love those beans on toast, people!’

Explaining how her love for Britain began, she explained: “Okay, am I the only American who randomly decided to become British in high school?

“I was obsessed with Jersey Shore like everyone else. So as I’m watching I realize there’s a British version of the show called Geordie Shore, and I’m like, ‘Geordie Shore, what is that?’

‘Then I heard about this beautiful mystical place called Newcastle, and I thought, ‘that’s what a Geordie is!’

“While I’m watching the show, I’m listening to the theme song and in the theme song this girl says a line.”

Pulling up a clip of Geordie Shore star Holly Hagan talking about her boobs, Fatou continues: “She says, ‘This one’s called Heidi and this one’s Audrina, and every time that song comes on and it goes, ‘Heidi and Audrina are eating you heart, ‘These are the babies’.

‘I thought: what does that mean? Heidi and Audrina from The Hills, is that some kind of British slang?

“When I Google it, I see it’s from a line in a Tinie Tempah song called Pass Out. I thought: who is Tinie Tempah? I’ve never heard of him.’

‘So I played the song and I was in love, so I listened to the whole album Disc-Overy, it’s still one of my favorite albums. I was absolutely obsessed.”

The influencer admits she quickly finished every season of Geordie Shore that was available at the time and ‘needed more’.

Fatou said: ‘So I started watching all these British reality TV shows – SuperSize versus SuperSkinny, Secret Eaters, The Only Way is Essex.

‘Of course I was annoying, I would make being British my whole personality. During class I spoke with a British accent.

“People would talk about, ‘oh my celebrity crush is Justin Bieber, I love Zac Efron, and I’m like – ever heard of Peter Andre?

‘I listened to Tinie Tempah’s entire album. I started listening to Dizzee Rascal and all these other British rappers from that era.”

Laughing, she recalled, “I would be so obnoxious and obnoxious about it. People would ask, “What music do you listen to?” and I would say ‘This British girl group’.

“They were like, ‘Oh, the Spice Girls?’ and I’d say, ‘No, I listen to Girls Aloud, I listen to All Saints’.

“And don’t get me started on The Office. Once everyone was obsessed with The Office, I was more like, ‘The British version is better, the British version is much funnier.’

‘Even though I like the American version better now, it was annoying at the time.

“Every time I heard Tinie Tempah or another rapper reference something in a song, I had to Google it.

“When he said, ‘Would you take a chance on a chocolate chip cookie?’ I thought, what does that mean? Googled it.

“When he said, ‘She likes to talk, that’s why I call her Trisha,’ I thought, who is Trisha? I found out who Trisha Goddard was.”

Learning every obscure reference, the LA native became a pro when it came to British pop culture.

She continued: “Even with books I had to be annoying, do you all read Harry Potter? I’m reading Angus, Thongs and Full-Frontal Snogging. I read Mates, Dates and Inflatable Bras.

‘The way Jordan, Katie Price, had a stranglehold on me. You can bet I was watching Skins and The Inbetweeners.

“It even got to the point where when I was in high school, I said I was in sixth form, getting ready for my A-levels” – I don’t even know what the hell that means.

‘To this day I still don’t even know what the GCSEs are. I haven’t gotten around to that yet.’

She hilariously concludes that the clip is revealing: ‘Imagine I’m obsessed with Britain, love Britain. I’m finally going to London for the first time in my life. I’m being held at London Gatwick Airport for eight hours, but that’s a story for another day.’

In the comments, the British could not suppress their surprise at the “impressive” amount of niche information known to American citizens.

One person from the UK wrote: ‘I’m actually crying that you went for it, like I didn’t expect Tinie Tempah, Peter Andre, Girl’s Aloud… JORDAN.’

Another wrote: ‘That was incredible. There must be a masters degree in British culture that you could do.”

Meanwhile, a third added: ‘When you started that video I didn’t expect you to actually be a Brit expert! The question is: are you making tea correctly?’

Impressed, others joked: ‘mate, you’re ALWAYS welcome here’ and ‘Petition to make you an honorary Briton’.

Someone else wrote: ‘You are definitely an honorary Brit. Please tell me you watched Gavin and Stacy and you know James Corden as we know him,” while another added, “This is perfection. The dedication! To reach Trisha Goddard? You made it’.

TOWIE’s Ella Rae Wise and Amber Turner sent pulses racing on Friday as they stepped out in sexy looks for a night out while filming in Bali.

Ella, 23, showed off her incredible figure in a sexy pink co-ord set with a skimpy floral print cropped strapless bra and a silky layered bright pink mini skirt.

She showed off her toned midriff and glowing tan as she walked to Atomic 17 Bar at Renaissance Bali Nusa Dua Resort in a pair of metallic strappy heels.

To accessorize, she wore three gold bracelets, a chunky gold watch, a Chanel necklace and a pair of simple gold earrings.

The TV star flashed a pearly white smile as she headed to the glitzy bar for a cheeky drink.

Amber, 30, was a vision in blue as she wore a stunning light blue floor-length dress.

Her garment showed off her ample cleavage, while the sleeveless number featured a gold open horseshoe detail in the center, drawing attention to her assets.

The dress showed off the star’s sun-kissed abs, while two panels cut out at the sides.

To spice up her look and show off her endless legs, Amber’s stunning outfit had a dangerously high side slit.

Also spotted on the star-studded evening was Chloe Meadows, who left little to the imagination as she went braless in a sexy lace number.

The blonde beauty, 32, turned heads as she stepped out in a light blue two-piece featuring a long-sleeved lace Bardot top and a floor-length skirt.

She flaunted her toned physique as she put her bare body on display wearing only a pair of white panties under the very revealing outfit.

Chloe accessorized her look with three simple necklaces, all of different lengths.

Courtney Green looked sensational as she stepped out in a stunning two-piece red co-ord set with a stylish red floor-length skirt.

The 28-year-old showed off a very busty look as she donned a long-sleeved bralette with twisted details down the center.

The personality kept her look simple with no jewelry and a simple makeup look.

Elma Pazar, 30, dazzled in white as she looked sensational in a very short sleeveless dress with a floral pattern.

The brunette beauty teamed her ethereal look with a pair of gold heels.

Adding some color to the star-studded evening, Saffron Lempriere opted for a statement outfit as she stepped out in a hot pink bra and purple leopard print skirt.

The 31-year-old showed off her unique sense of style with a pair of gold sliders and large sunglasses.

Dani Imbert, 25, also showed off her ample cleavage as she stepped out in a racy black number.

The star wore a revealed leather bra with three thin straps holding the cups together, paired with a very sheer black swimsuit that wrapped around her neck and ended in a form-fitting skirt.

Leaving little to the imagination in her black knickers, Dani teamed her sexy look with a pair of gold sandals and an array of gold bracelets.

The outing comes after Ella and co-star Dan Edgar were spotted getting flirty at the resort earlier this week as it appeared they were on a holiday getaway.

An insider told The Sun: ‘Dan and Ella grew closer during their outing with their friends.

‘Ella has always had a thing for Dan and the cast felt there was chemistry between them.

‘On a night out with the rest of the cast, Dan and Ella kissed and have been spending time together ever since. The affair will cause major drama and arguments among the group.’

Dan was previously in a long-term relationship with co-star Amber Turner until the couple split in May last year.

The on-and-off couple appeared to be settling down after moving in together and buying their dog Oliver.

However, both have faced the fallout of cheating rumors.

Amber herself never admitted to any wrongdoing, but there were also rumors that Dan had become close to Ella while he was with Amber.

Ella and Amber had a fiery confrontation in August when Amber confronted Ella about claims that Dan had touched her inappropriately while going out.

The pair then unfollowed each other on social media.

Ella seemed to confirm her split from her mystery man just before Christmas when she posted a cryptic message on Instagram about “deserving better.”

The pair had been dating since May 2023, but Ella had never revealed his identity.

Coronation Street's Katie McGlynn and Ricky Rayment announced their relationship on Wednesday by going Instagram official.

The former soap star, 30, played Sinead Tinker in the ITV soap until 2019, while former TOWIE star Ricky, 33, starred in the reality show of 2012 to 2015.

The loved-up duo took to Instagram on Valentine's Day and announced their romance in a joint post, sharing a slew of snaps together.

Katie and Ricky sealed the deal in one fell swoop with a sweet kiss, while in another time they enjoyed a romantic midnight dip in a jacuzzi.

They both captioned the post: “Everyday is like Valentine's Day with you #valentinesday.”

In photos obtained by The sun On Wednesday, Katie and Ricky sparked engagement rumors during a Valentine's Day stroll.

Katie was seen wearing a mystery ring on her wedding finger as she and her partner grabbed some snacks from a shop.

A spokesperson for Katie told MailOnline: 'Katie and Ricky are very happy together but they are not engaged. Katie likes to wear different rings and jewelry and happened to wear one on her ring finger.”

It comes after the new couple were spotted holding hands as they enjoyed a day of shopping in Essex on Tuesday.

Katie, who lives in Manchester, has been dating Ricky for the past four monthsAn onlooker told the publication: 'They looked very much like girlfriend and boyfriend.'

“They held hands, laughed and even kissed a little as they walked among Saturday afternoon shoppers.”

They added: 'We noticed them as they walked out of Hotel Chocolat. Ricky must have bought Katie an early Valentine's Day gift because he was carrying a bag there. They looked very happy together.'

Ricky was previously engaged to Geordie Shore's Marnie Simpson, who has since tied the knot with new boyfriend Casey Johnson.

They were got engaged to the Geordie Shore star after just four months of dating in 2015, but their whirlwind romance ended two months later.

Marnie has since moved on with X Factor star Casey, with the couple sharing three-year-old son Rox and two-year-old Oax.

During his time on reality TV he famously dated Jess Wright, but split after two years of dating in 2014, before dating Marnie for six months.

Following her split from Ricky, Marnie revealed how the former TOWIE lad lashed out at her after she decided to call off the engagement and allegedly called her 'a slag about 5,000 times'.

She said: 'When we broke up he called me every name under the sun and called me a snail about 5,000 times. He told me he always thought things like that.'

Marnie explained that the reason behind the decision to call off the wedding – which they were keen to host in 2016 – was because the ex-ITVBe star claimed they were spending 'too much time together', despite dating lived on the other side of the country.

Ricky later spoke about the romance, as he said: 'She got really drunk and then in my mind I was like, “F**king hell, she could do anything”'.

“She seems to think it's okay to hang out with her friends. But in a way it's like cheating. I wasn't that into her when she went out.'

Marnie has been in a relationship with singer Casey since 2017 and met on the set of MTV reality dating show Single AF.

She would be overjoyed after her big day on Wednesday, she says OK!: 'We've finally tied the knot – we're over the moon!'.

The couple were forced to postpone their wedding in 2021 due to ongoing Covid restrictions, before walking down the aisle in March 2023.
