GMTV's Michael Underwood is devastated after a fall during training ruled him out of the rest of the competition.
Michael was taking part in a usual training session at Elstree studios ice rink with partner Melanie Lambert, learning his new routine, when during a standard stopping manoeuvre, he fell awkwardly on his ankle.
Rushed to hospital in an ambulance, but with movement in his ankle, Michael hoped that it was just a bad sprain, but after X-rays, was devastated to discover that it was a clean break.
An ITV spokesperson said: "After breaking his ankle last night, Michael Underwood can no longer compete in Dancing on Ice.”
“The whole team are sad to see Michael leave the competition in this way and wish him a speedy recovery."
