The ITV reality competition which sees celebrities competing in a skating competition had traditionally been presented by Willoughby and her former This Morning co-star Phillip Schofield.

The previous season had been fronted by the pair but Schofield's exit from ITV and Willoughby's exit from This Morning had increased speculation about Dancing on Ice's 2024 presenting line-up.

Now ITV has confirmed that Willoughby will be back for Dancing on Ice and she will be joined by old Ministry of Mayhem colleague Stephen Mulhern, who replaces Schofield.

The pair will be joined by returning judges Jayne Torvill and Christopher Dean, Ashley Banjo, and Oti Mabuse.

In a statement, Katie Rawcliffe, Head of Entertainment Commissioning at ITV, commented: "Holly and Stephen are two of our best-loved presenters, so reuniting them twenty years after they first appeared on screen together to host Dancing on Ice marks the start of an exciting year for the show."

The stars confirmed to be taking part in the 2024 run include Ricky Hatton MBE, Claire Sweeney, Hannah Spearritt, Amber Davies, Greg Rutherford MBE, Miles Nazaire, Lou Sanders, Ricky Norwood, Adele Roberts, Roxy Shahidi, Ryan Thomas, and Eddie 'The Eagle' Edwards.
