“Can’t wait to meet my celebrity partner and get started!! Wonder who it will be.”
However, one person in the comments said: “It’s always a Corrie star he partners up with think Maria sorts that,” referring to Samia’s Coronation Street character Maria Connor.
Zero to do with me… flattered you think I have that kind of power.

Sharing a photo of his leg in a cast on Instagram recently, Stephen told fans: “Thank you for all of your kind words and messages. On Wednesday last week during my training session for Dancing On Ice I fell and broke my left ankle.
“I’ve had surgery and will be on crutches for a few months meaning, I’ve had to leave the competition which I’m absolutely gutted about. I was having so much fun and enjoying learning to skate.”
