Soap star Daniella Westbrook has become the latest star to be voted out of the ITV skating show Dancing On Ice.

Following a dramatic semi-final, the EastEnders star scored 23 out of 30 as she skated to David Guetta's 'When Love Takes Over' with partner Matthew Gonzalez.  

Despite a relatively impressive score, the 36-year-old's performance didn't earn a place in the final.

Instead soap stars Gary Lucy, Kieron Richardson and Hayley Tamaddon, who overcame a rib injury, will now battle it out for the forthcoming ice crown.

Westbrook said: "To come this far is amazing, it's been an absolute journey. Chris and Jayne, the reason I joined this show was to skate with you."

Actor Lucy who has appeared in Footballers' Wives, The Bill and Hollyoaks, scored 24.5 out of 30. The actor and his partner Maria Filippov skated to 'You And Me' by The Wannadies.

Speaking after his performance, the actor said: "I'm just so relieved, I didn't trip, I didn't drop Maria, I didn't take the cameraman out. It went well. It was great."

Former Emmerdale star Tamaddon and partner Daniel Whiston had the evening's highest score with 27.5 as they skated to Bette Midler hit 'In My Life'. They are the favourite team to win the celebrity skating contest.
