Back in October, Josh spoke about his stint on Dancing on Ice, admitting he had “no skating experience” at all.
He told Gaydio: “I did it once for a date years ago and I wasn’t very good. I was holding onto the railings the entire time and we aren’t together now.
“My dancing isn’t great either, for a gay man I have no rhythm, I struggle to clap along to a beat so this will be fun.”
Dancing on Ice airs on Sunday (January 26) at 6:25pm on ITV1.
