Patsy Palmer was the fourth celebrity to bid an emotional farewell to the ice after competing in the Dancing On Ice skate-off against Darren Harriot.
The surviving celebs, including The Vivienne, Mollie Gallagher, and Joey Essex, took on new routines from the greatest performers, like Beyonce, Elton John, and Billie Eilish, during Musical Icons week.
The judges, Oti Mabuse, Ashley Banjo, Jayne Torvill, and Christopher Dean, chose to rescue comedian Darren, 34, after he and Bianca Jackson actress, 50, were eliminated.
Bursting into tears upon learning of her fate, she told hosts Philip Schofield and Holly Willoughby: ‘I met the best people ever, we’ve been like one big family. Matt is amazing.
‘I’ve proved that I can and exceeded what I can do.’
Professional partner Matt Evers reflected on his relationship with the former EastEnders star, saying, ‘When I first saw Pasty on the ice, I was thinking, “Whoa this is going to be a tough one,” but I am really happy of what she’s done.’
They join John Fashanu and Alexandra Schauman, who were the first stars to be ousted.
Then, Liberty X pop sensation Michelle Heaton was the second skater voted out, when a shocking surprise cancelled the skate-off and quickly eliminated the duo with the fewest public votes.
Meanwhile, Love Island winner Ekin-Su Cülcülolu was the third celebrity to say goodbye to the ice on last Sunday’s live programme.
Viewers congratulated the actress on her journey into the competition before almost losing out on next Sunday’s movie special theme on social media.
‘Oh Patsy, this week was your biggest improvement yet for me. You have clearly learnt so much and made so much improvement, and isn’t that what we all aim to do in life? You can be so proud of yourself and I’m proud of you. We will miss you,’ one person wrote.
‘Sad that Patsy and Matt have gone. Patsy really did improve and went out on a high. Patsy should be very proud of what she has achieved. Best of luck to you and Matt for the future,’ another added.
Dancing On Ice returns next Sunday at 6:30pm on ITV2.
