Fans of Dancing On Ice star Anthea Turner will know that she and husband Grant Bovey came close to splitting up when it was alleged that he’d had an affair…

But in today’s Sun, while talking about Grant’s “friendship” with another woman, Anthea has blamed herself for his straying!

She reckons that being constantly away from home while working – which she did in order to keep the couple afloat financially after Grant’s property business went bust – was to blame for the fact that he sought excitement elsewhere. Read more & comment »

Dancing On Ice 2013: Anthea Turner says of the aftermath of Grant Bovey’s alleged affair, “We women pick over things; reconstruct things…”

It’s no secret that the now former Dancing On Ice star Anthea Turner was devastated when it was claimed in the press that her husband, Grant Bovey, had had an affair with 24-year-old Zoe de Mallet Morgan…

However, during an interview this week, Anthea has revealed that starring on DOI has given her and Grant some time apart to get a better perspective on things, and to – evidently – realize that their marriage is worth fighting for.

But reading between the lines of what Anthea said to The Sun, it would appear – to me at any rate – that she’s in part blaming herself for some of the marital strife.

She said of her marriage to Grant, “Things are back on track. It takes two people and relationships go through difficult times and I don’t know anyone who has a clean run — very few people do these days.” Read more & comment »

Anthea Turner has revealed that she is gutted to have been eliminated from Dancing On Ice last night.

The domestic goddess found herself in the skate off with Keith Chegwin, after the judges berated her for not skating alone enough during her third routine of the series.

Dancing On Ice will be a bit of a blast from the past this evening, with the ITV show rocking a ‘school disco’ theme.

The episode will feature some cheesy hits that used to fill the school gym’s dance floor and it seems the ladies at least will be getting into the spirit of the evening and wearing the skimpiest school related costumes they can find.

Dancing On Ice celeb Anthea Turner is reportedly “in agony” after sustaining a rib injury in training this week.

She apparently has a “popped” rib which happened as she was rehearsing for the coming weekend’s performance. Having felt something go “ping” Anthea took to her bed for the rest of the day, but it seems the pain hasn’t reduced a great deal.

A show insider told TV Biz, “Anthea popped a rib during her duel routine on Monday and has a hot water bottle on her ribs all day, but she hasn’t missed any training — yet.

“She is really worried about it, as she is in a lot of pain, but she’s a real trooper and is insisting that it will be all systems go for this weekend… Read more & comment »
