‘I’m looking forward to having a bit of an adventure. I’m excited about going to all the different sporting events, I want to go to everything there is. And then it will be exciting to watch Frank play in a new environment, that is going to be a new challenge for him in all the right ways.’

Meanwhile, Frank showed off his buff body in a pair of green shorts on the pair's sunshine break the day before.

He came out on top of the Dancing On Ice leaderboard last week.

Judge Ashley Roberts said: 'It was fun, it was funky, it was fabulous… You did it with confidence… It was just awesome.'

A usually harsh Jason Gardiner said: 'It was genius… It’s very ambitious what you did out there… You showed great skill.'

Head judge Robin Cousins added: 'It was brilliantly done… The two of you between you played creatively with the hat. Brilliant.'

She was awarded a total of 30 points from the judges and received a mix of comments from the panel.

Coronation Street actress Samia Ghadie used a chair as prop as a nod to her Coronation Street character Maria Connor who is a hairdresser.

Robin added: You upped your game… A girl with attitude showed up tonight and a purpose and that’s what we’ve missed.
