Ekin-Su Culculoglu has been confirmed for 'Dancing On Ice'.
Ekin-Su Culculoglu signs up for Dancing On Ice
The 'Love Island' star - who won this year's series alongside her partner Davide Sanclimenti - is the third contestant announced to be part of the ITV celebrity figure competition when it returns in January 2023.
Appearing on ITV's 'Good Morning Britain' on Wednesday (05.10.22), she said in a pre-recorded video: "I've got some amazing news to tell you – I will be doing [next] year's 'Dancing on Ice'.
"I'm so excited for the team. I can't wait to get myself on the ice and skate. Stay tuned, and see you on the ice!"
The announcement comes after her man Davide revealed he actually turned down an offer to appear on the show.
He explained: "They wanted me to do Dancing on Ice this year but I refused this time around.
"I have so much going on and I can't commit to something every day and when I do something I want to do it properly.
"Right now I just can't focus on something like that, for the moment anyway, but in the future maybe I will."
Ekin-Su will appear on the show alongside a host of stars, including already-announced contestants Patsy Palmer and former footballer John Fashanu.
The retired sportsman said this week: "I don’t think it’ll come as a surprise to people that I’m very competitive – I am definitely in it to win it.
"And this may be one of the scariest things I’ve ever signed up for but I couldn’t be more ready for the challenge."
Meanwhile, DJ and former 'EastEnders' actress Patsy commented: "I wanted to challenge myself and get back to work, get out of my comfort zone.
"And I just thought ‘I’ll just go for it’, it seems like a lot of fun."
