Waterloo Road star's new job as she helps Michelle Heaton prepare for Dancing On Ice

Michelle Heaton is preparing for her Dancing On Ice stint in style.

The former Liberty X singer, 43, has been spotted wearing designs from another famous face as she trains for the ITV series set to kick off next month.

A new collection from iGD Sport, the fashion label launched by former Waterloo Road actress Zeri Cheetham-Karcz, has emerged as must-have gym attire for superstar athletes and celebrities.

Michelle has been proudly sharing snaps of herself donning creations from the brand as she takes to the ice rink for gruelling training sessions.

The mum-of-two is part of a star-studded celebrity line-up for the upcoming season of the ice skating contest. Alongside the singer, Love Island winner Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu, former Coronation Street star Mollie Gallagher, EastEnders legend Patsy Palmer and RuPaul's Drag Race UK winner The Vivienne are all ready to wow judges and viewers when Dancing on Ice returns next year.

Celebrities including Michelle, boxing legend Tyson Fury and Kady McDermott are loving the new sportswear brand launched by Zeri, who says it's "exciting" to see famous figures wearing her creations.

Zeri said: "We are seeing huge interest in iGD products from people who train every day and also want to look and feel great in their sportswear as we revolutionise the market.

"It is exciting to see celebrities wearing the brand but iGD is for everyone and that's the message we are going to continue to push. It is fashionable and functionable. It is great for working out but also you can wear iGD for the school run!"

"Acting is my first love but I love the creative input I am having with iGD and the work I am doing to grow the brand. We're talking to some massive names about partnering with us. 2022 has been a great year for us and 2023 is set to be even bigger."

Zeri played Celine Dixon throughout the second and third series of BBC drama Waterloo Road.

Over recent years the actress has broadened her horizons away from the acting world with a number of different ventures - most recently with her new collection from iGD Sport.

The exciting range, which comprises cutting-edge design and performance enhancing support, offers male and female sportswear including leggings, bras, shorts, calf and elbow guards and t-shirts, allowing increased training and faster recuperation times.

The technology was originally designed by brand founder and professional physiotherapist, Andy Wray, and launched in partnership with Zeri who has also featured on Coronation Street.

Boxing champion Billy Joe Saunders commissioned his own collaboration with the brand for his title-fight in the USA. Meanwhile, Love Island favourite Kady is a fan of the brand and it has also been supplied to a range of Premier League footballers and most recently, Dame Kelly Holmes.
