Clumsy Kem dreads dropping American Alex Murphy, 29, on her head.
In our exclusive interview he said: “I’m more worried about it being ‘Death On Ice’. I’m just not sure whose death.
“I’m scared of dropping Alex on her head or tripping her over. She’s been great and has got a lot of faith in me, but I can be clumsy.
“It will be a miracle if I don’t break something before the show has finished.”

“They approached me to do Dancing On Ice as soon as I came out of the Love Island villa”
Kem Cetinay
Kem, who became a household name this summer when he won Love Island with Amber Davies, said he spent months debating whether to sign up to join the skating competition.
He said: “They approached me to do Dancing On Ice as soon as I came out of the Love Island villa.
“I took two months to decide until they said time had run out and I had to make a decision. I thought, ‘What do I have to lose, apart from maybe a broken leg?’”
Kem, 21, recently split from Amber, despite making wedding plans after Love Island.

The heartbroken star added: “Dancing On Ice has been good for me. I’m training hard, I’ve really got into it.”
Kem was originally partnered with Meg Marschall, 25, but she left the series after rowing with her ex-boyfriend and fellow DOI pro Lloyd Jones, 29, who has also left.
Kem might be right to worry about hurting himself as a number of contestants have been injured on the show.
