The mum-of-two has had multiple trials for the hit ITV skating show and there's no doubting she'll be a glamour puss on the ice.

A TV source told us: "She's spoken with bosses and is close to signing on the dotted line.

"They think she'd be a great addition and will definitely add some glamour."

Her decision to join the show comes after the star survived her brain tumour battle in 2017.

The insider added: "She's had a new lease of life since the brain tumour and is definitely up for the challenge."

Caprice was forced to quit The Jump in February 2017 after doctors discovered the thumb-sized growth.

Bosses ordered the star to see a medical expert after she told them she'd been suffering headaches and blurred vision - a move she now credits with saving her life.

She previously told : “The Jump saved my life.

“I had headaches that were not going away and my vision was beginning to act up so the show’s production insisted I see their doctor."

The businesswoman underwent a seven and a half hour operation to stop the tumour and later told the Loose Women how she painfully said goodbye to her sons, Jett and Jaxx.

She explained: “I told the boys I was going away for work. I didn’t know if I was going to see them again.”

Recalling the moment doctors broke the news, she said: "I started to break down and cried hysterically. I said: ‘Am I going to die?’
