Dancing on Ice star Chris Taylor is recovering from multiple minor injuries he sustained ahead of the series, which were not helped when he later got in a car accident after his live debut.
The Love Island alum, who is contesting in the latest series of the ice-skating competition, suffered a hiccup over the weekend when his dancing partner Vanessa Bauer unexpectedly quit the show after a severe injury.
Chris was quickly partnered with Robin Johnstone to ensure his journey on the Dancing On Ice continues. However, he’s yet to fully recover from the shocking incident that occurred after his first live show.
Dancing on Ice star Chris Taylor was in a car accident
While appearing on Joe Baggs’ Not My Bagg podcast, Chris revealed he was involved in a car accident. Luckily, he survived with “a lot of minor injuries” when the car drove into his right-hand side.
Talking about his recovery, Chris said: “I have to go to physio every week, which is nice. I get a bit of a massage. Sometimes I’m making it up and I’m not in pain. sometimes I just want a bit of a break.”
He continued: “My arm goes dead. Not in a fun way or a good way, it just goes dead. During training, I can’t lift anymore, so they have to fix that, yeah. I’m holding it together – I’m basically held together by sellotape at the minute.”
Chris revealed he met with the accident just after his first live show on Dancing on Ice. Yet, he managed to deliver a powerful performance the next time he was on the ice.
It also comes after Chris and Robin lost their footing and fell onto the ice during Sunday’s show after being paired with one another.
His partner Vanessa Bauer quits Dancing On Ice
The 28-year-old abruptly exited the show after damaging her ligament during rehearsals.
In an Instagram video, Vanessa revealed that she won’t be continuing for the rest of the season as she’s prioritising her health.
Vanessa had a “little accident” backstage during rehearsals and did not realise its impact until she had an MRI. The reports revealed that she had “completely torn” her ligament. She described it as a “grade three sprain injury and a major grade two sprain injury.”
The pro dancer wrote in her caption: “Thank you so much for your support this season and over the past 8 years! There is so much really exciting stuff happening year and I’m looking forward to being properly healed for it! I’ll be there supporting you every step along the way.”
