This weekend, Amber will be donning her skates after bagging spot in the new Dancing On Ice lineup.

Ahead of her DOI debut, the Welsh star said: "I’ve obviously got Kem - I text him a couple of times and he's given me some advice on bits and bobs but he did it so long ago.
"I'm surprised he even remembers! He said, 'It's all about confidence'.
"I over complicate things in my mind and I'm a bit of a control freak. I can't just let go.
"Kem literally said to me, 'You just need to relax'."

Amber added: "It's so hard to do that when you're on the ice because you're thinking about so many things. The more I get on the ice, the more relaxed I'm getting."
During the summer of 2017, the nation was gripped by Amber and Kem's blossoming romance.
The pair walked away from the ITV2 reality show in first place and claimed a £50,000 prize pot, which they chose to share.
Initially, Amber and Kem even appeared to be on the road to matrimonial bliss and spoke frequently about tying the knot.
But sadly, by December of the same year, they had hit the skids and announced their break-up.
At the time, Amber and Kem said in a statement: "With sadness, we’ve decided to separate. Our schedules made it difficult. We’ll remain good friends."
A source, meanwhile, told The Sun: "They’ve been at each other’s necks for the past month.
“They’ve clashed over the smallest things. It’s also been very hard for them to see each other with their hectic schedules.
“They tried to make it work but realised they want different things.”
Following her Love Island stint, Amber picked her career as a performer back up and she has gone from strength to strength.
Just last month, she appeared in an episode of The Kardashians after Kim Kardashian went to watch her in Back To The Future during a trip to London.
This Sunday, she is among the brand new lineup of celebrities taking to the rink for this year's Dancing On Ice.
Other stars taking part in Week 1 include former Coronation Street star Ryan Thomas, boxer Ricky Hatton, Olympian Greg Rutherford, S Club singer Hannah Spearritt and Emmerdale actress Roxy Shahidi.
