Dancing On Ice pro Matt Evers is set to move into Denise Van Outen’s home ahead of the 2021 series.
The professional skater has been paired with Denise for the upcoming series of ITV’s show, which debuts in a matter of weeks.
Due to coronavirus rules putting a strain on the day-to-day running of the show and rehearsals, the duo have decided to bunker down together.
Taking to Instagram, Denise shared a clip of herself and Matt in central London over the weekend before opening up about their journey ahead.
The songstress wrote: “Last night @proudembankment was pretty special for me.

“I am so HAPPY!! I adore Matt.
“I literally cannot wait to get into skate school with my new teacher and knuckle down to work.
“I promise to be a good student and to always listen and learn Matt, because you’re the best and you rock!”
She added: “Come and lockdown with my family in Chelmsford and let’s create some lovely memories. Skate School starts this coming week. Bring it on! @dancingonice @itv.”

Keen to prevent any concerns about social distancing from spreading, the actress added: “For the record. Matt and I were both tested before our meet/embrace.
“We are now in a bubble so we can work together.
“Matt will be moving into our home for maximum safety @dancingonice #mattevers #bubble #staysafe.”
According to reports, Denise will pocket £40,000 for her stint on Dancing on Ice.
A show insider told Daily Star Sunday: “After some top-secret negotiations, Denise was offered the chance to take part and she jumped at the chance. She’s signed a deal worth around £40,000.
“Bosses are thrilled to have her on board. They know she will give it her all in training and be popular with viewers.”
