Dancing On Ice winner revealed as Nile Wilson after beating Joey Essex in second place

NILE Wilson has been crowned winner of Dancing On Ice 2023 alongside his pro partner Olivia.

The pair beat Joey Essex and Vanessa Bauer to the top spot after The Vivienne was eliminated in third place during tonight's grand final of the ITV show.

Joey Essex, Nile Wilson and The Vivienne battled it out tonight.

The celeb contestants put on a number of incredible performances this evening, including a showcase with Torvill and Dean.

They all impressed judges Jayne Torvill, Christopher Dean, Ashley Banjo and Oti Mabuse with their moves, but it was Nile who won over the public.

Nile, 27, and their pro dancer Olivia looked over the moon with their new title, having taken over from last year's winner Regan Gascoigne.

After hosts Holly Willoughby and Phillip Schofield announced the amazing news, they shared a hug and thanked fans for their support.

Nile told viewers at home: "It's meant so much to me. I want to thank everyone who voted back home.

"If Dancing On Ice is anything other than entertainment – we've got 11 human beings of all different shapes and sizes stood on this stage with an allocated time to get good at something.

"We've proved that we can do it, and what an inspirational show."

"If you work hard and you put your mind to it, you can achieve anything you want to," he emotionally told fans.

Joey, 32, then congratulated his co-star, saying: "I am so happy for Nile and Olivia – I know I missed a few steps. Best time of my life, thank you to everyone."

Nile and Olivia lifted the trophy as the series came to a close, as they were surrounded by their cheering former co-stars.
