Olympic skier Graham Bell was due to take to the ice for the first Dancing On Ice 2021 show this weekend.
But ahead of the launch, his professional partner Yebin Mok has suffered a horror accident on the ice.
The pro was reportedly “stabbed” with a blade from a skate, which is said to have “exposed her tendons”.
Holly Willoughby explained it as a “freak accident” on This Morning, which resulted in her “having a laceration to her leg”.
Phillip Schofield added: “We had a Zoom meeting yesterday with the team and they showed us a picture that we can not show you on TV.
“Holly couldn’t even look at it, she had to look away – and it was a very nasty stab wound from an ice blade.
“You could see the tendons, it’s a very dangerous show.”
