Joey Essex says he has a deep level of care for his Dancing On Ice partner Vanessa Baeur amid rumours of a romance between the pair.
The former Only Way Is Essex star is taking to the ice this weekend for the ITV skating show, where he will perform a full routine for the first time in front of a live audience and millions tuning in from home. Joey has been partnered with Vanessa Baeur, with romance rumours swirling around the pair after they attended an event together.
In a first look ahead of the show, a cheeky Joey even asked for her number. Whilst the pair have avoided questions bout the possibility of a romance, Joey did admit he cared a lot about Vanessa and that she was a "lovely girl".
