Dancing On Ice confirms fourth contestant – and it’s sparked a HUGE debate with fans

This is intriguing!

Dancing On Ice has revealed its fourth celebrity skater – and it’s sparked quite a debate!

As you probably know, the show’s bosses have chosen to unveil their star-studded line-up via cryptic images that focus on the contestants’ bodies, rather than faces.

Which means we’ve all got to play a guessing game as to who they are!

Fun…

Contestant number four was revealed via Instagram on Thursday morning.

Or, more accurately, contestant number four’s upper body, a hand with fingers crossed, and tumbling brunette curls.

The caption to the snap read: “Keep your fingers crossed for our celebrities. They’ve got a lot to learn for 2018!”

As always, it’s left fans clutching at straws to figure out the skater’s identity.

“Katie Price?” asked one.

“Brooke Vincent?” quizzed another.

“Scarlett Moffatt?” guessed a third.

“Lauren Goodger?” asked a fourth.

“Vicky Pattison?” wondered a fifth.

Well, TOWIE star Lauren has already done the show, back in 2013, where she was the second skater to be eliminated.

And we reckon Scarlett may be a tad busy hosting I’m A Celebrity spinoff show Extra Camp over in Australia to do Dancing On Ice as well.

After all, when would she have time to rehearse?!

Katie and Coronation Street star Brooke, however, could be good guesses, given both have been linked to the revamped show.

A source told The Sun: “Brooke has already wowed judges with her skating audition. Bosses feel she’ll be the perfect glam signing.”

Meanwhile, Katie herself previously told The Sunday People: “They have asked me and I did go along so they have seen me on the skates.

“There is a price for Pricey so we will just have to see if they have got the money won’t we?”

Three previous contestant reveals have been made – but again all very cryptically.

A woman painting her lips bright red led people to guess The Great British Bake Off’s Candice Brown or EastEnders actress Samantha Womack, aka Ronnie Mitchell.

A buff shirtless torso fuelled rumours it could be McFly’s Harry Judd, Judge Rinder, rugby pro Thom Evans or swimmer Mark Foster.

It could also possibly be former X Factor and I’m A Celebrity star Jake Quickenden.

According to The Sun, he’s been snapped up by bosses to provide some “eye candy” for viewers.

Meanwhile, a woman’s hand on her hip drew suggestions including TV presenter Angellica Bell, singers Beverley Knight and Heather Small, and EastEnders actress Diane Parish, best known as Walford’s Denise Fox.

Also mentioned were Saturdays star Rochelle Humes and cricketer Ebony Rainford-Brent.

Some suggested it could be X Factor stalwart Sinitta – until others pointed out she already did the show, appearing in the fifth series where she was eliminated first.

Come on ITV, just confirm the ACTUAL celebrities already rather than all this teasing!
