"It's a nightmare and I'm completely gutted. We put so much work into getting to this point but I have to respect my health and I have to respect my body moving forward. That is my biggest priority. "I want to thank everyone at Dancing On Ice - the judges, Phil, Holly, the production team, the runners, and most importantly within that I want to thank the celebrities who have become friends and also the pros who just do such a great job with us all."I want to thank the fans for voting for me - sometimes those costumes were colourful and sometimes those moves were dubious but we tried and went out there and gave it our best.
