Celebrity Oxford United supporter Michaela Strachan will take part in the new series of Dancing on Ice in 2025.

The Springwatch presenter revealed the news during an exclusive chat on ITV’s Lorraine on Thursday morning.

On the show, Michaela said: "It's going to be a big challenge the last time I was on ice was four years ago when I took the kids.

“I'm not one of those people who holds onto the sides I guess because I was trained as a dancer I've got a bit of balance.

"I've always been one of those people who says yes, I'll do that."

She was also recently pictured supporting the U's as her team lost 2-1 to Bristol City.

In a public post after the game, the presenter said: "I was invited by Bristol City to see the game today.

"But as an Oxford United supporter I had to control my excitement when Oxford scored in the first half.

The show returns in January 2025 on ITV1.
