Dancing On Ice is set to return to TV screens in a matter of days, with a new set of 11 celebrities ready to show off their ice skating skills. This year's line-up features TOWIE stars Ferne McCann and Dan Edgar, as well as The Traitors star Mollie Pearce, Hollyoaks' Chelsee Healey, Springwatch favourite Michaela Strachan andformer EastEnders star Charlie Brooks.
Also looking to impress the judges is Coronation Street's Sam Aston, comedian Josh Jones, Love Island's Chris Taylor, ex-footballer Anton Ferdinand, as well as Olympian Sir Steve Redgrave. With the show due to return on 12 January, predictions of who could be this year's winner have already started to be shared, with bookmakers sharing the current odds.
Bookmaker Coral has revealed that Love Island's Chris is the 7-2 favourite to win the 2025 series, while Traitors favourite Mollie and TOWIE's Dan both sit at 9-2 to lift the trophy. “Reality TV stars have a great record on Dancing On Ice, and our betting suggests that could continue this year, as former Love Island contestant Chris Taylor tops the betting to win the latest series,” said Coral’s John Hill.
However, things aren't looking so great for footballer Anton and comedian Josh, who both sit at 16-1, while Olympian Steve is the least likely win by Coral's odds, with him being at 33-1. Steve, who is a five-time Olympic gold medalist, has revealed his concerns about taking part in Dancing On Ice. He's opened up about his health battles, having been diagnosed with diabetes nearly 30 years ago, and how he worries about his health impacting his performance on the ice.
