‘Josh and Tippy’s partnership will be greatly missed. We will be helping to support Josh and wish him well in his recovery.’

Josh’s exit came after he narrowly survived the first elimination during last week’s live show, with Hollyoaks’ Chelsee Healey becoming the first star to be sent home. 

Josh was first revealed to be taking part in Dancing On Ice in October, and admitted on Gaydio that he had ‘no skating experience’ at all.

He said: ‘I did it once for a date years ago and I wasn’t very good.

‘I was holding onto the railings the entire time and we aren’t together now.

‘My dancing isn’t great either, for a gay man I have no rhythm, I struggle to clap along to a beat so this will be fun.’

The snaps come after Ferne broke down in tears live on Lorraine on Friday after yet another surprise appearance from her kids.

The star appeared on the ITV programme to talk about how it’s been going so far. 

At the end of the interview, stand-in host Christine Lampard told Ferne: ‘Before you go, we have a little message for you. 

‘A very special message from a very special person Ferne. Here she is.’

A clip of Ferne’s seven-year-old daughter Sunday then played out on our screens. 

Sunday said: ‘Hello mummy. Good luck for Dancing On Ice this weekend. I hope you get through for next week. Love you.’
