Dancing On Ice competitor, Chris Fountain has decided to leave Hollyoaks, the Channel 4 soap that made him famous.

Chris has been offered £100,000 to take part in the UK Dancing On Ice tour, but had to choose between taking part, and continuing with his job on the teen soap.

A source told The Sun: “Chris has been juggling both shows. He’s been travelling loads and is shattered.

“He’s been told it’s the tour or Hollyoaks and now ITV have offered him £100,000 to stick with them. That’s the clincher.”
