Dancing On Ice star Sylvain Longchambon ‘is rushed to hospital’

Dancing On Ice star Sylvain Longchambon “was rushed to hospital” after breaking his chin while rehearsing ahead of a “solid” week three performance with Mollie Gallagher.

Dancing On Ice star Sylvain Longchambon was rushed to hospital last week after injuring his chin while choreographing his latest routine for the ITV show.

The professional skateboarder required medical attention after ripping open his chin during a rehearsal with his famous partner, Coronation Street actress Mollie Gallagher.

Dancing On Ice creative director Dan Whiston said Sun: ‘We had a lot of crashes this week, with pro skater Sylvain rushed to hospital after hitting his chin on the ice during rehearsals.

“He had his chin on it and luckily he was back on the ice with Mollie Gallagher who put in a solid performance.”

Nightmare: Dancing On Ice star Sylvain Longchambon was rushed to hospital last week after injuring his chin while choreographing his upcoming routine for the ITV show.

Despite the setback, Sylvain and Mollie earned an impressive score of 28.5 for their emotional skid, performed to the song She used to be mine from the hit musical Waitress.

And Whiston admitted that it’s just the latest in a series of behind-the-scenes blunders that occur as the long-running show returns to ITV1.

He said, “Just when we thought we couldn’t have any more dramas this week, we had a situation where the platform the musical cast was on had to be bolted into the ice to prevent it from slipping off.”

“I loved choreographing such an exciting professional performance along with our special guests from Tina the musical!”
