Bunton to leave 'Dancing On Ice'

Emma Bunton is to leave ITV1's 'Dancing On Ice' after two years on the judging panel.

The former Spice Girl said that she wants to focus on her upcoming projects, including a children's clothing range.

She said that she will miss the show but has to "prioritise" her workload.

Bunton – known for many years as Baby Spice – said: “I loved working on Dancing On Ice; it was so much fun and I love the team.

“I made this decision as I have to prioritise all the exciting projects lined up for me next year, as well as my Heart FM radio show, and juggle these with being a busy mum.

“I wish everyone on the show the best of luck.”

There has been speculation that fellow 'Dancing On Ice' judge Jason Gardiner may also be leaving the series.

It is all change on the programme, as presenter Holly Willoughby is being replaced by Christine Bleakley.
