The 'Love Island' star lands a new TV gig

'Love Island' star Maura Higgins is officially confirmed for 'Dancing on Ice'.

Maura was one of the finalists on the reality series.  She's been pretty busy since between getting a segment on 'The Morning' and landing her own reality show.

On the 'Dancing on Ice' Twitter page, they captioned the announcement:

"She had a great summer, but how will she handle the ice?"

This Morning also confirmed the new with their own tweet:

Speaking to Holly Willoughby and Philip Schofield on 'This Morning', the Longford lass said:

"I've skated once in my life for fun, so I've no experience at all. I'm up for the challenge. I'm more excited than scared, I'm competitive so I think that will drive me."

She added: "The headbanger is what frightens me.

"I need someone strict I think. Otherwise I’ll just throw a strop, I’ll lay on the floor!"

Also confirmed for the 2020 series of 'Dancing on Ice' is TV presenter Michael Barrymore.

Also in a This Morning video for Twitter, Barrymore said:

"I'm delighted to say that I'll be joining the Dancing on Ice line up for 2020, I'm looking forward to meeting Holly and Phil. I'm very excited... it's performance time!"

Last year, 'Love Island' semi-finalist Wes Nelson competed 'Dancing on Ice'. He came second while 'Strictly' star James Jordan was the winner.
