She admitted: “I really struggled to get my head around the fact that I was going to have a stoma. I wasn’t prepared for it. Eighteen-years-old, you kind of want to be out enjoying yourself with your friends, not having this life changing surgery.”
The announcement of Mollie’s participation in Dancing On Ice follows the news that reality TV star Ferne McCann will also be joining the 2025 line-up, as announced on ITV’s Good Morning Britain, reports the Mirror.
Ferne McCann has confirmed she’s joining the line-up for the upcoming series of Dancing On Ice. During an appearance on Good Morning Britain, she shared her excitement with hosts Susanna Reid and Ed Balls, saying: “I’m doing Dancing On Ice! So excited! I’ve done Winter Wonderland with the children, but the penguins the kids have got – I’m crunched over them! I’m looking forward to it; it’s going to be a huge challenge. But the glitz and the glam, it’s going to be brilliant.”
The ITV show is set to return in January, with the contestants being announced one by one.
Lorraine is on ITV1 weekdays at 9am and on ITVX
