Dancing on Ice's Oti Mabuse reveals link to Carly Stenson as viewers raise 'bias' concerns

Oti Mabuse Danny Mac Mark Hanretty

Oti Mabuse has sparked 'bias' concerns from Dancing on Ice viewers, after admitting her link to contestant Carly Stenson on Sunday night.

After sitting on the sidelines, watching the first six celebs and their professional partners take to the rink last weekend as the ITV show returned for its new series, former Hollyoaks star turned West End actress Carly finally made her debut on the rink with Mark Hanretty as the remaining five stars aimed to impress the judges and viewers at home.

Carly and Mark performed a routine to Jessie Ware hit Say You Love Me and impressed Oti and her Dancing on Ice colleagues enough to earn a series high score of 32 out of 40, with all of the panel also glowing with their feedback to the couple.
