Former Saturdays star Frankie Bridge has swapped the microphone for a pair of ice skates to become become the first ever celebrity to take part in a Disney On Ice performance in the UK. 

Frankie - who was a finalist on Strictly Come Dancing in 2014 - is training up to perform in the Disney On Ice presents Worlds of Enchantment tour.

The singer, presented and mum-of-two will be skating into London’s The SSE Arena, Wembley on April 4, before gliding to the Liverpool Echo Arena on April 11.

She said: "I’m a huge Disney fan, and we all know how much I love a good dance. But ice-skating? It’s definitely out of my comfort zone!

"I love to challenge myself though and Disney On Ice is something that we as a family love.

"I’d never have thought I’d get the chance to take part in something like this and develop a new skill - I’ll be whipping out the forward crossovers on the ice rink with the family for years to come!

"But really, I just can’t wait for my boys to see me out there on the ice with their favourite characters.”

Disney On Ice presents Worlds of Enchantment will be skating into Glasgow, Leeds, Birmingham, London, Liverpool, Nottingham, Cardiff and Aberdeen from March 15 to May 6.
