Gary Lucy has admitted that he is having problems with his outfit for tonight’s Dancing On Ice show.

The former Hollyoaks actor is struggling with wearing a thong, according to reports.

He explained to PA: “The Lycra is interesting, but it’s the dance belt I’m struggling with at the moment to be honest, which essentially is a thong and it’s not the most comfortable of things, but I’ll get used to it hopefully.”

Lucy also revealed that he is losing weight as a result of all the training he is doing on the rink.

“My jeans are fitting a bit baggier,” he revealed. “It’s a nice post-Christmas workout. It’s skater’s legs and a skater’s bum I’m looking for.”
