Max Evans will be taking to the Dancing On Ice rink with a different skating partner this weekend after Ale Izquierdo pulled out of the show.
The rugby ace – who is one of five remaining celebrities in the ITV show – will be performing with Antony Cotton’s former skating partner Brandee Malto this weekend, with ITV confirming that Ale is unwell.
‘Owing to illness, Max Evan’s partner Ale will not be performing this weekend,’ a spokesperson for the show told metro.co.uk
‘He will instead be dancing alongside Brandee Malto.’
The spokesperson added that Ale would ‘hopefully’ be returning next weekend.
