HOLLYOAKS star Chelsee Healey is the latest celeb to sign up for Dancing On Ice just ten months after giving birth.
The Manchester lass is best known for playing brazen Goldie McQueen on the Channel 4 soap.
Chelsee, 36, is also a contestant on the current series of Celebrity SAS: Who Dares Wins.
She's now set to swap her camping boots for a pair of ice skates after joining ITV's primetime winter hit.
It comes after she recently took time away from her role as Goldie to give birth to her second daughter Cooki.
The mum-of-two has signed up alongside an EastEnders legend, a Traitors finalist, a Corrie favourite, Sir Steve Redgrave, a Towie star and a comedian in the line-up.

Chelsee first appeared on Hollyoaks in 2008 as a guest of a woman called Michelle.
She then joined as a regular role, playing McQueen legend Goldie in 2016.
But she recently dropped a huge hint she has been axed from the show after a recent cull of cast members.
The decisions have sparked fury among the cast backstage after Stephanie Waring, famed for her 28-year-long role as Cindy Cunningham, confirmed that soap bosses had axed her as part of the 20-person strong cast cull.
Chelsee is already mum to daughter Coco, who is six years old.
She and Coco's father, Jack Malloy, split shortly after her birth.
Speaking about her Cookie's dad – whose identity she has kept hidden – she explained to Closer Magazine: "This is the most supportive relationship I've ever been in.
"My friends and family love him, and he's the first bloke I've introduced Coco to, which says a lot.
"I knew he was The One within three to four months. I've kissed a few frogs, but he's definitely marriage material."
Chelsee previously admitted that her second pregnancy hasn’t been completely plane sailing and she ended up struggling at work.
She said: “I’ve struggled a bit this time round. With Coco I flew through pregnancy, but I’ve been experiencing all-day sickness and I’m exhausted.
“I’ve been sent home from work twice poorly and I’ve fallen asleep on set, I’ll be relieved when this part’s over!”
And she admitted her baby girl was a nice surprise for her and daughter Coco, who has been desperate for a sibling.
“The pregnancy wasn’t planned, it’s what I call a nice accident,” she told Closer.

“After I did a pregnancy test, I thought, ‘Oh my god’, and let out a nervous laugh! Initially I thought, ‘No, it’s not the right time’. Coco is the best thing that’s happened to me – although a bit crazy like her mum and doesn’t always do what she’s told!
“She’s so funny, she’s very independent and there are at least 10 arguments a day. So, I thought, while I’d love another child, I’d want to wait till she’s out of this phase till I think about another.”
