So far, Denise van Outen, Myleene Klass and Emmerdale's Joe Warren Plant have all been confirmed for the ITV show, with more stars set to be announced over the coming weeks.

Denise shared her excitement over on Instagram on Wednesday, writing: "I am so, SO excited to be joining the cast of @dancingonice. My girls have always wanted me to do this but I've always been too scared someone will skate over my fingers!

"Anyway, I want to make them proud and show them I'm up for a challenge when completely out of my comfort zone but most of all, I want a bum like Jlo!"
