MILES Nazaire has boasted he’ll WIN Dancing on Ice - and taken a savage swipe at his co-star Ryan Thomas.

The Made in Chelsea star appeared to suggest he's not threatened by the former Coronation Street actor after watching him rehearse on the ice.

Speaking on his Playtime podcast with co-host Charlie Radnage, Miles said he's been practising for two hours a day ahead of Sunday night's launch show.

"So lately I've been doing Dancing on Ice, which is so fun and it's been two months of a lot of training," he said.

"I've been paired up with the wonderful, beautiful Vanessa.

"She's been in the finals every year, but only won once.

"I said to her, 'look, you've only won once and this year is the second time'."

He went on to praise Vanessa Bauer for her work ethic and how committed she is to her craft.

Miles insisted the pair have been working incredibly hard - but had a brief break when they were able to watch Ryan and his partner Amani perform this week.

Asked if it threw him off, the reality star said: "They're looking great, but no, not at all.

"I say that in a positive way. It made me think, 'right OK here we go'.

"I only really got to see my ability when I saw him because before that I'd only seen Amber and Claire, but it's hard to compare yourself. As a male skater you're doing very different things as a female.

"When I saw Ryan, I thought 'OK let's see where you're at'.

"Hes doing amazing, they look amazing on the ice. I saw one of their routines and it was really cool.

"It kind of spurred me on. It's really good stuff."

Dancing on Ice launches this Sunday on ITV at 6.30pm.
