Dancing on Ice bosses sign up sexy pro skaters Vanessa Bauer and Meg Marschall – but who will win over the male celebs?
The pair are sure to stun potential male celebrity ice skating partners including Jake Quickenden, Max Evans and Kem Cetinay
DANCING On Ice bosses have secured the sexiest pro dancers in the show’s history ahead of its big comeback.
German beauty Vanessa Bauer, 21, and American Meg Marschall, 25, are sure to melt the hearts of potential male celebrity ice skating partners, including Jake Quickenden, Max Evans and Kem Cetinay, who have all been confirmed for the new series.
Vanessa has posed for a number of sizzling bikini pictures online – and has years of extensive dance experience on and off the ice.
A TV source said: “Show chiefs can’t believe their luck.
“Vanessa is bound to be a huge favourite with viewers as she’s got a great personality as well as incredible looks.
“The male celebrities will be desperate to be partnered up with her. But their real life girlfriends might not be so keen.”
Meanwhile, Meg Marschall, 25, from America, also joins the lineup of professional skaters.
The blonde stunner will be competing against Vanessa in the ITV show that returns next year.
Producers have already confirmed that Coronation Street actress Brooke Vincent will be taking part, as well as Love Island's Kem Cetinay and X Factor singer Jake Quickenden.
They also join Bake Off star Candice Brown, sportsman Max Evans and TV presenter Cheryl Baker.
Celebs will be trying to impress judges Jason Gardiner, Jayne Torvill, Christopher Dean and Diversity's Ashley Banjo.
And dancer Ashley has already predicted that there will be fireworks between him and Jason when the show returns in January.
He said: "I can imagine us clashing. Do I look like I can be bullied? No chance.
"I'm going to have to start thinking of witty one-liners. Jason is very good at that. He is the king of the one-liners, let's hope he's not lost it."
An exact air date is still to be confirmed – but all previous series’ started airing in January each year, suggesting series 10 will air from January 2018.
The show is said to have a "fresh look" as it rebrands after several years away from the screens.
Ice skating legend Jayne Torvill declared the show will need to up its game as reality TV has raised the bar over the past few years.
