Former Liberty X singer Michelle Heaton has said her Dancing On Ice debut will celebrate how she turned her life around after battling addiction. The 43-year-old said there will be “a lot of emotion” from her and her family as she takes to the ice with her professional skating partner Lukasz Rozycki when the ITV hit show launches on Sunday.
Heaton has been open in the past about how she previously struggled with a drug and alcohol addiction, but that going to rehab had saved her life. Ahead of the show’s return, the mother-of-two said: “I still am in recovery and I work daily on it, the kids don’t work daily on it, they just see a happy, healthy mummy now.
“And so for having them in the audience on Sunday, I think there’s going to be a lot of emotion from them and myself. And just them feeling proud of me and my husband being there, and my friends who helped me along my way.
