Rachel Stevens made a slightly different type of debut on ITV's Dancing On Ice this weekend.
She spoke to host Holly Willoughby at the side of the rink, unable to perform her first routine like her fellow co-stars.
Singer Rachel had been forced to pull out of the ITV series last week ahead of her debut, after suffering an injury.
A spokesperson said last week: "Due to an injury sustained in training and on the expert advice from the Dancing on Ice medical professionals, Rachel Stevens will not skate in this Sunday's show. We look forward to her returning to the show next weekend."
Rachel sustained a fracture to her wrist after a fall on the ice.
Speaking on the show on Sunday evening, Rachel revealed she was doing well and would be back to it the following week.
After explaining her injury, host Holly confessed she was "so sorry" to see her off the ice.
Rachel told her: "I'm really good, it's healed really well thankfully. We are back on the ice next week.
"We're gonna do Moulin Rouge!"
Holly told her: "Well listen, you be careful. We need you here, let's give them a big round of applause."
After sharing a video of her back on the ice with her professional partner Brendyn Hatfield , it was teased she could be performing after all.
Rachel herself told The Sun on Sunday: “I’m so happy to be back on the ice. Brendyn asked if I was nervous, but I’m more excited than nervous.
“He has created a wonderful routine and I can’t wait to perform at last.”
It was soon revealed this was purely just for training though, with Rachel still sitting out of the show on Sunday night ahead of the first elimination of the series.
Meanwhile, it was TV presenter Ria Hebden and her professional skating partner Łukasz Różycki who found themselves in the bottom last week.
There was no skate-off, as the bottom skater was revealed to be competing against whoever received the lowest votes the following week.
As for Ria, the pair had received a decent score of 24.5 after taking to the ice for the first time - but it seems it wasn't enough.
Dancing on Ice continues Sunday at 6:30pm on ITV and ITV Hub.
