Dancing On Ice 2025 is just a few months away and for two of the show’s pro skaters, it will be their last series.
Mark Hanretty, 39, and Brendyn Hatfield have revealed they’ll be leaving the series after the 2025 run.
It comes as next year’s pro skating line-up was announced this week. The Dancing On Ice contestant line-up for 2025 was revealed in October.

Meanwhile, the show will welcome two new pros. Eric Radford and Molly Beth Lanaghan will join the new series.
However, two of the pro skaters – Brendyn and Mark – have revealed they won’t be back after the 2025 series.
Mark said on his Instagram: “I’m back! Hard to believe I’m embarking on my 12th series of Dancing On Ice.
“I’m as excited as ever and so grateful for the chance to work on the greatest show on ice once again. This will be my last year as a pro skater and I’m eager to soak up every second of it!
“Good luck to all the team and here’s to a fantastic series!”
Fans expressed their sadness over Mark skating for the final time. One person said: “Not your last, don’t do this to us Mark.”
Another commented: “Omg Mark don’t do this to me, all my favourite skaters are leaving.”
