Ryan Thomas reveals he’s on holiday with DOI partner and his family at £2k a NIGHT hotel – as Amani plants a kiss on him
Ryan was recently 'holiday shamed' after fans flagged one key detail
RYAN Thomas revealed he’s soaking up the sunshine with his Dancing on Ice show partner as she planted a kiss on his cheek in a sweet snap.
The actor scooped the Ice King title in March’s nail-biting ITV live final, beating Radio 1 DJ Adele Roberts, 45, and Made In Chelsea star Miles Nazaire, 28.
At the time, he heaped praise on figure skater Amani Fancy, 26 – who was new to Dancing on Ice this season – and now their bond has extended off the rink.
Ryan, 39, who is on holiday with his fiancee Lucy Mecklenburgh, 32, and their two kids, took to his Instagram Stories to post a video of their reunion at the pricey £2k a night UAE resort.
In his caption, he joked: “I came away to get a break from her,” followed by a host of laughing face Emoji icons.
Amani, dressed in a stylish green outfit, let out a squeal before she planted a kiss on his cheek.
Ex Coronation Street favourite Ryan beamed as he said: “Ahh eh,” before Amani said: “I can’t believe it.
“I don’t get to boss you around,” before he added: “No more telling me off!”
She added: “It’s OK we will just eat food and drink wine.”
Amani finished off the chat by blowing a kiss to the camera.

Sun-shamed
Ryan was recently shamed for his “freebie” Dubai trip with his family.
It comes after the star and partner Lucy filled their Instagram pages with images from the idyllic getaway.
Lucy captured the duo clad in sunglasses as they enjoyed a cuddle before honing in on their stunning meal-time choices.
One particular snap saw a platter of cured meats while another captured octopus, potatoes and salad served on separate dishes.
The pair’s eldest child Roman, aged four, somewhat exhausted by the sunny antics, was seen stretching out on a sofa.
Later in the day, Lucy enjoyed a walk with their daughter Lilah, aged one, dressed in an adorable white co-ord.
The getaway appeared to come at a handy time for Lucy, who told how she was “struggling with solo parenting” when Ryan was away for DOI rehearsals.
Ice King
Ryan recently broke his silence on his Dancing On Ice show win.
He took to Instagram to caption a sweet family snap: “The real trophy is my family.
“Thank you to everyone @dancingonice it was the hardest challenge I’ve ever had to do but it’s the people who made it so special for me, in front & behind the camera.
“I have to give a massive thank you to all the pros/coaches/celebs for making me feel part of there family, on & off the ice. I honestly couldn’t of done it without your support.
Despite the show triumph fans were quick to call his win a “fix” – claiming the result was “rigged.”
It comes after they were convinced he would take the title before the show even aired – due to one key clue.
