McCann is perhaps best known for being a long-running cast member of The Only Way Is Essex, having joined the series in season 9 and leaving in its 18th season.

Since then, McCann has become a mainstay on TV having presented her own segment on This Morning and also starred in the 15th season of I'm A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here.

She also was at the helm of her own ITVBe reality series which was initially titled Ferne McCann: First Time Mum and then rebranded to Ferne McCann: My Family & Me. However, earlier this year, McCann made the decision to quit her series.

Talking exclusively to Good Morning Britain, McCann said of joining Dancing on Ice: "I'm so excited, it's going to be a huge challenge but I'm excited for the glitz and glamour of the show."

Pearce is of course known for being one of the Faithfuls on the second series of The Traitors, coming in the runner-up spot against Traitor and friend Harry Clark.

Prior to being on TV, Pearce worked as a disability model for various brands and said that after the series, one of her main goals was to raise awareness around living with a stoma. She starred in a The Traitors parody for Comic Relief earlier this year alongside stars like Jonathan Bailey, Catherine Tate, David Walliams, Suranne Jones and more.

On the announcement of her joining the Dancing on Ice line-up, Pearce told Lorraine: "It will be fun, I want to challenge myself, I'm ready for the challenge."

Sir Steve Redgrave

Age: 62

Job: Former Olympic rower

Redgrave is the most titled rower in history and was the first British athlete to have won five Olympic gold medals at five consecutive Olympic games from 1984 to 2000. He is the most successful male rower in Olympic history, with his gold medal winning feat only having been surpassed by Sir Chris Hoy and then Jason Kenny.

Throughout his career, Redgrave has also won the BBC Sports Personality of the Year – Lifetime Achievement Award, three Commonwealth Games gold medals and nine World Rowing Championships gold medals.

Talking exclusively to This Morning on the announcement of joining Dancing on Ice, Redgrave said: "It's like going back to being an athlete again, I've been competing most of my life."
