Dancing On Ice star Ben Hanlin suffered a painful injury just days ahead of his debut on the 2020 series alongside Holly Willoughby
January 04, 2020 - 17:28 GMT Jenni McKnight Dancing On Ice has already seen one celebrity pull out of this year's series due to injury – and now it appears another could be on the way out. Magician Ben Hanlin has revealed that his TV debut is in jeopardy after he suffered a nasty fall in training and injured his ribs, which left him unable to practice his difficult lifts with professional partner Carlotta Edwards.
He continued:"I’ve had a big injury and I've smashed my ribs. I'm all strapped up but I just went out skating and couldn't do any of the lifts. I couldn't lift Carlotta … but I've got till Sunday to get through it." Speaking to The Sun, Ben added:"I was warming up, I’d just stepped on the ice I was going left and right, hit a toe pick, slammed face first, belly flopped looking like a complete idiot and got up and realised that my ribs hit the ice first.
The 2020 series, which is again hosted by Holly Willoughby and Phillip Schofield, was hit by drama last month after Michael Barrymore quit the show after breaking his hand during training, and will be replaced by Blue Peter presenter Radzi Chinyanganya. The former TV presenter hurt his hand after suffering a fail in rehearsals, ITV released a statement which read:"Owing to an injury sustained in training, Michael Barrymore has had to withdraw from the competition.
