Film star and singer, Samantha Mumba may quit ITV series Dancing On Ice before it even airs.

Mumba has collapsed at home due to a mystery illness and doctors have hooked her up to a drip as she appeared to have severe flu symptoms and dehydration.

Show bosses have ordered extra medical staff to be on hand for Saturday nights launch, but at the minute Samantha is so ill that she fears she miss the show altogether.

A source close to the star told The Mirror: “She was very sick but is resting now and is determined to get better and get back on the ice.”
