Former Olympic ice skater Jayne Torvill has shut down claims that some Dancing on Ice contestants have an unfair advantage over others. Jayne appeared on Good Morning Britain today (Friday, March 25) alongside her professional partner, Christopher Dean.
After Kimberly Wyatt, Regan Gascoigne, and Brendan Cole all made it to the final during the last episode, some viewers have branded the show 'a fix', as all three finalists have dancing backgrounds, NorthWalesLive reports. During this morning's show, Good Morning Britain presenter Charlotte Hawkins asked skating legends Torvill and Dean about the criticism.
"It will only help them once they've learnt to skate and everyone has to learn to skate," Jayne explained. "You can't just say you can dance and go off on the ice."
