Dancing on Ice fans ‘work out’ Mollie Pearce as this year’s winner already – and she even has judge’s backing

DANCING on Ice fans think they've 'worked out' this year's winner already after an impressive first skate.

Viewers of the ITV skating show think that the final result has been 'sealed' after they were left blown away by one celebrity on the programme.

The Traitors star Mollie Pearce wowed as she took to the ice alongside her pro partner, Colin Grafton.

Mollie looked stunning as she donned a dark red dress for her routine to the Olivia Rodrigo hit, Vampire.

She managed to perform six lifts during her opening routine as judge Christopher Dean was left remarking at the level of difficulty she managed to incorporate for her first ever skate.

The panel offered up high marks of 7.5 putting Mollie miles ahead of her fellow competitors in the second heat and she topped the leaderboard with a huge 29.5.

Judge Ashley Banjo was even left remarking that he could see her in "the final" already thanks to her incredible performance.

It left many viewers assured that the reality TV star would be picking up the trophy at the end of the show's run.

Commenting online, one fan penned: "Early prediction; Mollie for the win."

Another added: "Need Mollie Pearce to be the first woman to win #DancingOnIce in 12 years because that was IT!!!"

Support for Mollie continued to roll in as a third wrote: "@ColinGrafton and mollie. Omfg wow!!!! What an incredible start to ur dancing on ice journey!!!!

"Incredible routine and amazing choreography!!!! Huge well done."

Mollie's routine was even more impressive given that she had to take four weeks off from training as a result of an injury.

It led one fan to quip: "What a great first skate from Mollie and to think she had 4 less weeks on the ice than the others, definitely one to watch."

Mollie fractured her wrist before even meeting her pro partner Colin Grafton, leaving her unable to train for weeks.

The Traitors star said: “Before I met Colin, I actually fractured my wrist.

“So we were off the ice for four weeks. We had some tough days with that. I think we were really excited to get back on, and you know, it felt like a big setback.”

But the pair made the best of a bad situation.

Colin explained: “We used it to our advantage and practised in a dance studio. We got to know each other better. It was difficult being off the ice and not training, but we’re back better than ever.”
