Joey Essex said he is “most scared” about suffering an injury that would prevent him from competing in Dancing On Ice following an accident in practice that left him needing stitches in his finger.
The TV personality, who is partnered with professional Vanessa Bauer, said he has a “fearless mindset” that reminds him to just “give it your best shot”. Essex, who has previously starred in The Only Way Is Essex, said: “My main thing at the moment is to not fall over. So I had one terrible fall in my first practice routine. That was quite bad.
“I’ve been trying not to fall because I feel I’ve got the falling out of the way. I had stitches in my finger. It is quite bad. You could see my bone and blood was going everywhere, but I’m all good now.”
