The former 'The Only Way Is Essex' star has been forced to pull out of the ITV ice-skating show after suffering concussion from a fall in the rink during rehearsals on Friday (05.02.21).
A source told The Sun on Sunday newspaper: "Billie is absolutely gutted. She’s been really upset all day and would have done anything to stay in the competition.
“But it’s doctor’s orders and she has to put her safety first.”
An ITV spokeswoman said: “During rehearsals for this week’s show, Billie Shepherd has had a fall.
“Taking the expert advice of the Dancing on Ice medical team, she sadly cannot perform this weekend and will therefore now withdraw from the competition.
“We wish Billie well as she now takes the time to recover.”
Billie, 31 - who has two children with her husband Greg Shepherd - is the latest star to quit the current series of the TV show.
Denise Van Outen, 46, was forced to leave the show after fracturing her shoulder, while comedian Rufus Hound, 41, left after testing positive with COVID-19.
