COLD AS ICE: Holly Willoughby Delivers Final Blow to Phillip Schofield, Ignores Him in Dancing on Ice Farewell!

She did not include any throwback pictures of him either

HOLLY Willoughby made a huge final snub to Phillip Schofield as she failed to mention him in her Dancing On Ice farewell.

ITV previously announced that it is ‘resting’ the long-running skating show for 2026, and there are no other plans to make another series.

Holly, 44, broke her silence at the news, as she paid tribute to everyone she has worked with over the years.

She shared a string of photos of both old and more recent series as she gushed about her time fronting Dancing On Ice.

The Bear Hunt frontwoman wrote a long essay as the celebrity competition came to an end.

However, she failed to mention Phillip Schofield, 62,at all in her post as she reflected on the history of the show.

This is despite a special mention to the judges, Jayne Torvill and Christopher Dean.

After becoming a known face on children’s television, Holly shot to superstardom as she made her primetime debut on the ice-dancing programme in 2006.

She fronted the show for six series alongside her ‘TV husband’ as they expanded their partnership when she joined This Morning back in 2009.

After fronting the show with Christine Lampard for three series, Holly later returned to her role for the reboot in 2018.

Phil was forced to leave his roles at ITV after he admitted to lying about a consensual affair with a younger male colleague.

This was after a highly-publicised fall-out with former BFF Holly behind the scenes.

Despite posting many snaps by Stephen Mulhern, Holly failed to include any snap which featured Philip.

She wrote: “A huge thank you to @itv, The brilliant team, Crew, Celebrities and Everyone who has been part of our Dancing on Ice family over the last 19 years.

“Every year, just when January felt at its greyest, Dancing on Ice arrived like a burst of glittering, dazzling light, warm, joyful, and full of heart…

“It has been an absolute privilege to work alongside true national treasures Jayne Torvill and Christopher Dean, and to have a front-row seat to their breathtaking skating.

“Watching them glide across the ice was nothing less than pure magic… A special thanks must also go to Arnica, Deep Heat,Spanx and fake tan, unsung heroes of the rink!

“I will miss it hugely, but I count myself so lucky to have had it for as long as we did. Finally and most importantly, thank you to you for watching, you’re the BEST!”

It seems there is no love lost between the former daytime duo as The Sun revealed how Phil, referred to Holly as “the witch” after they fell out.

The former Five Gold Rings presenter also lashed out at an unnamed trio in his television comeback on Channel 5’s Cast Away.

A friend of Holly’s told the publication: “Phil seems determined to keep going and going on this.

“You just have to remember that Phil lied to a lot of people in his life so why would he be telling the truth now?”
