Carley Stenson has no qualms wearing next to nothing on Dancing on Ice – thanks to her days baring all on Hollyoaks.
The soap star, 40, played Steph Cunningham on the Channel 4 show from 2000 to 2011.
She’s now ready to embrace the racy outfits as she takes to the ice on Sunday (January 21) on the ITV skating show.

“My pride went out of the window with Hollyoaks, some of the outfits and lack of outfits,” laughed mum-of-one Carley.
“I’m not bothered now!”
Carley hasn’t been seen much on screen since leaving Hollyoaks over a decade ago, instead choosing to focus on a career in musical theatre.

She had lead roles in West End musicals Shrek and Legally Blonde
The TV star briefly returned to telly in 2021 on BBC’s Doctors.
Carley revealed how she auditioned for Dancing On Ice a few years ago – but was not picked.
And how she initially turned down this year’s offer, before being persuaded to change her mind by husband and Strictly finalist Danny Mac, 34.

The couple have a young daughter, Skye, one.
“I auditioned a few years ago, it wasn’t my year,” she told. “I got pregnant soon after, so thank goodness.
“They remembered me and reached out again last year. At the time I said no, I said I was too busy.
“Danny was really up for it, he said it was my time.”

Carley recently took to Instagram to share a behind-the-scenes video as she showed off her impressive moves.
In the short clip , she can be seen skating solo as twirling confidently around on the ice.
She penned alongside her video: “Finally thing I’m getting the hang of this now. Can’t wait now.”
Unsurprisingly, her video caught the attention to 61.3k followers, with some rushing to compliment her moves on the ice.
One fan penned: “Go on girl!”
