The awkward moment Roxanne Pallett was branded ‘fake’ by Dancing On Ice’s Jason Gardiner live on TV
The pair had a spat on This Morning back in 2009 after Roxanne made snide comments about co-star Zoe Salmon
ROXANNE Pallett was slammed by Dancing On Ice’s Jason Gardiner live on TV after she made snide comments about co-star Zoe Salmon.
The pair had a spat on This Morning back in 2009 after the actress was rude about fellow skater Zoe.
Roxanne, 35, and Zoe, 38, were both competitors in the 2009 series of the hit skating show.
After the Celebrity Big Brother “punch” row, Zoe went public with claims Roxanne made her life miserable while they were filming Dancing On Ice together.
Footage of Roxanne talking about Zoe on This Morning has now emerged on Twitter and it shows judge Jason defending the kids TV star.
During a joint interview with Roxanne, he was seen talking about one of Zoe’s performances and singing her praises.
He said: “She was lovely, that girl is a real delight because there is such a sincerity when she gets on the ice.”
Roxanne then interrupted him, saying loudly: “Are you mad?”
Jason snapped back: “I’m not mad I’m telling you exactly what we see… what we see is a girl who’s really enjoying herself, whether she’s faking it, brilliant.”
The actress then said: “So fake sincerity… how do you know know what’s sincere?”
Jason then shuts her down with a scathing response, saying: “Well I can tell you, you’re not [sincere], she is.”
Earlier this week, Zoe accused Roxanne of “ruining lives” during Dancing On Ice.
She sent out a candid tweet about her experiences with the star after seeing Ryan Thomas over Roxanne’s Celebrity Big Brother punch allegations.
Zoe wrote: “In tears for @ryanjamesthomas So many of us have suffered bec of #Roxanne she’s caused hurt & pain.
“The amount of people coming forward is astonishing. Her behavior scars. I’ll never forget how she treated me on Dancing on Ice. I pray she’ll change & stop ruining lives. @bbuk”
Zoe then retweeted a message by actress Gemma Bissix who also appeared on the same series of Dancing On Ice.
The post condemned Roxanne’s behaviour towards people on the show and suggested apologies for them were long overdue.

“One apology now is just not enough for all the people affected and hurt over the years #RoxannePalett #cbb @ryanjamesthomas @Zoe_Salmon.”
