Leeds Olympian Nile Wilson has smashed Dancing On Ice 2023 to lift the series trophy and win 'the greatest show on ice'.
Nile and Vanessa romped to victory, brushing aside Joey Essex and Vanessa with a flawless Bolero in the final to bring the series trophy back to Leeds.
And fans were thrilled for the pair - but they did spot Vanessa looking very unhappy with Joey Essex's skate.

Nile Wilson said the show should be an 'inspiration' to everyone as it shows '11 humans of all shapes and sizes trying to get good at something'.

@andagwira said: "Nile won … no one is surprised. We called this months ago"
@whopottervian said: "In all seriousness, though, although it may have been predictable Nile is absolutely the right winner. He was utterly fantastic throughout the entire series, and one of Dancing On Ice's best ever winners. #DancingOnIce"
A few people hit out at Nile for winning though because he is a professional athlete (and a medal winning Olympian at that).

And some Dancing On Ice fans spotted Joey Essex's dancing partner Vanessa 'fuming' after his performance in the bolero of the live final of the ITV1 show.
The 'greatest show on ice' saw Joey Essex and Vanessa go head to head with Leeds Olympian Nile Wilson on Sunday night after The Vivienne finished third.
But viewers said Joey's Bolero performance left a lot to be desired and was clearly second-best to Nile Wilson. And voters seemed to agree as the voted for Nile to win and lift the trophy.
But viewers all agreed that Vanessa was 'fuming' after the performance and just could not hide her disappointment at the result, right from the moment the Bolero ended, almost as if she was angry with Joey's performance.
Viewers also saw Vanessa mouthing instructions to Joey during their Bolero.

Joey Essex admitted "I missed a few steps" as he conceded defeated to Nile Wilson in the final moments of the show.
