Former TOWIE star Billie Faiers is reportedly in talks for next year's series of Dancing On Ice and has already started training for the show.

The 30-year-old appeared on the Essex-based reality series for 18 seasons and now features on her own series with younger sister Sam, The Mummy Diaries.

The next series of Dancing On Ice is slated to begin in January despite the ongoing threat caused by the coronavirus pandemic, and according to The Sun, Faiers is among those in the frame to appear.

"Potential contestants are having preliminary tryouts in Slough and Billie is really liked by producers," a source told the newspaper. "She's relatable to viewers as a working mum and will look fabulous in the costumes.

"It'll be a big step for her as she loves to do telly projects with her sister Sam, but both sisters think Dancing On Ice is a great gig and will be really positive for their lucrative brand."

Billie married businessman husband Greg Shepherd last year after a five-year engagement.
