Joey Essex shows painful 'frostbite' after suffering nasty injury during Dancing On Ice

Joey Essex seems to have suffered another nasty injury, just one week after sharing a snap of his injured leg wrapped in a bandage.

The Dancing On Ice contestant, 32, took to his Instagram Story on Sunday to share a video of a painful-looking scar on his finger. Alongside the video he added an ice block and cold face emoji.

Joey played the video to the song Frostbite by rapper Preme.

However, fans needn't worry that he will have to miss out on tonight's Dancing On Ice, as Joey shared a second video giving his followers a preview of his performance.

The former TOWIE star said he will be "surfing on ice" before showing off his beach-themed costume.

In the clip, Joey was dressed in a pair of light blue swimming trunks which featured a glittery trim.

His professional dance partner Vanessa Bauer looked stunning wearing a striped blue bikini top and matching beach skirt.

Joey's latest update comes after he revealed he was laid up in bed with a wound to his leg.

To shield fans from the horror injury, Joey added an ice skate emoji to cover his bare foot.

The upper half of Joey's leg was wrapped in a black bandage. Alongside the picture, he wrote: "Had better days."

Joey and his partner Vanessa have been the main subject of Dancing On Ice gossip recently, with the pair surrounded by romance rumours.

During last week's episode, Joey tried to sneak in a little peck with his dance partner during their routine.

The pair had decided to dance to High School Musical's iconic hit Breaking Free for movie week.

Towards the end of the routine, Joey leaned in to give a hesitant Vanessa a little kiss as she leaned away, laughing and seeming a little flustered.

Vanessa was also spotted leaving Joey's £3.3million house last week before the duo headed out for a power breakfast together.

Neither Joey nor Vanessa has commented directly on rumours they are dating.
