Model Caprice Bourret is at the heart of one of the most controversial series of Dancing On Ice ever.
The 48-year-old sent shockwaves through the ice rink when she "parted ways" with her original pro partner, Hamish Gaman.
Caprice was absent for a week of the competition but returned to the ice with her new partner, Oscar Peter.
Fans of the ITV show were left baffled when the former lads' mag favourite failed to take to the ice two weeks ago.
Presenter Philip Schofield told viewers: "Unfortunately Caprice and Hamish have parted ways and will not be skating this week.
"As you saw in our opening number, Hamish remains very much part of our professional team and we hope to have Caprice back on the ice next week."
No official reason for the couple's split has yet been given, although fans were far from happy when Caprice performed last week.
There were reports the crowd had booed as she skated onto the rink and fans on social media have accused her of getting a "free pass".
Even judge Ashley Banjo has admitted this year's series is "controversial".
Speaking to the Mirror on the National Television Awards red carpet he said: "Yes, a lot of controversy!
"We love a bit of controversy, don't we?! This year it feels like everyone's being controversial."
And even before Caprice performed for the first time, her millionaire husband, Ty Comfort, had his fears about her pro partner, Hamish.
She told OK! Magazine that her husband was fearful their relationship would be hit by the Dancing On Ice 'curse'.
She said: "When I first told him that I wanted to do this show, he was a little bit dubious about it, I’m not going to lie.
“I mean, there are these hot professional skaters who you are literally spending more time with you than your own spouse, so that was a conversation we had to have.
“And I understand the worry on Ty’s part because this experience is unbelievably intimate.”
The couple, who have been dating since 2011, married just before Christmas last year.
They have two sons, Jett and Jax. One of the boys was born via a surrogate just three weeks before Caprice went into labour with her second son.
And the former lingerie model reveals how she can't keep her hands of her partner.
She explained: I have a drop dead gorgeous partner, so I have sex two to three times a week."
It seems the feeling is mutual and since Caprice and Ty tied the knot she has confessed he can't keep his hands off her.
She said: "He just wants me to be naked all the time. I haven’t had that since we first started dating, so it feels pretty good.
"We haven't seen as much of each other as we normally do because of the long hours of training. But we see plenty of each other at night, and that’s all that matters anyway."
- Dancing On Ice is on ITV at 6pm tonight.
