Dancing on Ice’s Joey Essex opens up on romance with Vanessa Bauer and says ‘If I was married, this would be a disaster’
He said: “It might be hazardous, but even if I don’t pull it off I want to try. And then people will know this is not a joke for me. I need to make myself proud and I need to make the whole of the UK proud.
“I feel like I get doubted a lot and I feel like I want to try and — well, not try — I WILL prove people wrong.” You might write it off as big talk, had Joey not already cut himself to the bone in one of the series’ most dramatic falls to date.He explained: “As I was skating on the first day around the rink, everyone had their hands over their face, like, he’s gonna hurt himself because I was falling over a lot.I was being funny and was like, ‘Yeah I will. I don’t want to lose my finger!’
Then within ten seconds I fell over backwards and my hand went under my skate and there was blood everywhere.“All I remember is a producer yelling, ‘No he’s being serious! His finger!’ I could see the bone. Four medics came over with a stretcher.”He went on: “That’s what made me even more scared, because I was like, they’ll think I’m not taking this seriously. I was disappointed because I don’t want anyone to think I was here to mess around.
“There’s now a big scar on my finger that feels weird and it’s quite uncomfortable as well. My finger’s still stiff. I’ve got bad memories of that day, it was a big shock to me.”revealed he had broken his finger “tripping over a suitcase in the dark”.Luckily for Joey, Vanessa has been a rock for him during his battle back on to the ice.Joey laughed: “All of them! Off the ice or on the ice? Both are quite good. I think Vanessa’s surprised how good I am at lifting her, spinning her around.
