So Dancing On Ice marked the first time the reality show regular had taken a series title.
Jake was one of the favourites throughout the competition – also becoming the first contestant to nab a perfect 40 from the judges last series with an emotional routine to Shakespears Sisters Stay.

The new series of Dancing On Ice begins on ITV on Sunday night at 6pm.
The two-hour series opener will see the first six of this years celebrities take to the ice for their skating debut.
