Inside Dancing on Ice wrap party as Holly Willoughby tucks into Greggs and rum cocktails
DANCING On Ice queen Holly Willoughby let her hair down for some rinky business at the series wrap party.
She was the life and soul of the official bash, held in a marquee at Bovingdon Studios in Hertfordshire after Ryan Thomas was crowned winner.
But she was without her TV partner Stephen Mulhern, who had to get home early as his mum forgot to leave him a key under the mat.
Holly said in a funny speech: “I can do a two-hour live show and I’m absolutely fine.
“But then I stand in front of you all now and it’s utterly petrifying.
“Stephen had to go, basically.
“He’s actually staying at his mum’s house tonight and she hadn’t left the key out, which is kind of hilarious.”
The gang drank cocktails with fun names including Dancing on Rum and Skating on Ice.
They then munched on grub from Greggs. Spicy veg, Mexican chicken and classic steak slices, plus pizza was laid on.
I always knew Holly was a girl after my own heart.
Kath on hunt for killer

Filming started in Bristol earlier this month.
Katherine said: “The book is thrilling and the scripts are even better. I am excited to start unpicking Sophia as the events in the series unfold.”

Chelise: It’s card to stop
SOME party-loving contestants on the new series of Loaded In Paradise got worse with cash after the reality challenge.
Pairs compete for the Gold Card with money for them to spend at will.
Those without it must live a budget lifestyle.
The series returns to ITV2 this month.
Chelise, who stars with best friend Faith, said: “I left thinking I still had the Gold Card in my purse, so I am spending more money now than I did before the show.”
Lewis, who competes with brother Gio, added: “I flew out to Dubai after the show and it’s been quite detrimental to my bank account. I’m in debt.”
Lucien’s return to Paris
EMILY In Paris fans can breath a sigh of relief – Lucien Laviscount will be in the new series.
The actor, who plays love-interest Alfie in the Netflix show, was last seen waving goodbye to Emily (Lily Collins) at the end of series three in 2022.
At last year’s Oscars, Lucien was unsure if he would see another series.
But at the 2024 awards bash on Sunday he revealed: “I’m back, and I’m so happy about it. We are about halfway through shooting the fourth season now, and it’s going to be cool.
“Where everyone has got to know the characters a bit more, we can dive deeper into people’s beings.
“There’s a lot more truthfulness to it, it’s definitely a little more romantic, daring and out there than the other seasons, so it’s going to be a fun season.”
Emily In Paris returns to Netflix later this year.
TREVOR EVE, Daniel Rigby and Zoe Tapper are part of the cast for Alibi’s new dark comedy drama I, Jack Wright.
Also joining John Simm, Nikki Amuka-Bird and Gemma Jones are Sex Education star Rakhee Thakrar and The Vicar Of Dibley’s James Fleet.
