Dancing On Ice star Billie Faiers has opened up in a tell-all interview, admitting that she is feeling the pressure as the live shows rapidly approach.
With her nerves getting the better of her, the 30-year-old is worried she’ll end up “passing out” when the launch day finally comes around.
Billie, who has been partnered with pro-skater Mark Hanretty, has already suffered a number of injuries as her training regime ramps up with competition nearing.
Finding it hard to keep her nerves under control, Billie revealed her deepest fears, confessing that she wasn’t sure how she’d get through it.

For someone who only takes to the ice once a year at Christmas, the entire process is completely new for the mum-of-three.
Speaking about her recent coaching with Mark, she told Ok! magazine: “It’s hard, I’m not going to lie.
“I can’t actually believe I’m doing it still, because it’s so out of my comfort zone.
“I’ve never done a competition like this and I’ve never done anything on my own – I’ve always been with my sister Sam Faiers.”

Not wanting to pass up the invitation to join the ITV favourite, she added: “I just thought, it’s an amazing opportunity and I’m learning a new skill.
When it comes to injuries, Billie confessed that shed already “had a few” after pushing herself harder in the last week or so.
The reality TV star explained: “I fell over the other day – I’ve hurt my back and I’ve got a huge bruise on my leg, but it’s going to happen.”
With all the recent mishaps on the ice and baring purple and blue bruising, fear started to strike as the realisation that the Live shows were looming started to hit home.

The blonde starlet continued: “I keep saying to my ice-skating partner, ‘I don’t know how I’m going to do this.’
“The live shows, I’m going to pass out – I’m going to be so nervous!”
Billie will join a whole raft of celebrities on the ice skating show which is due to air at some point in January – date yet to be determined.
Fans are in store for a real treat this year as the programme’s chiefs have really pulled out all of the stops when it comes to the line up.
Viewers can expect to see The Masked Singer UK star Denise Van Outen, funny man Rufus Hound, Westend legend Jason Donovan and Rebekah Vardy too.
