‘I don’t think we’ve ever had a falling out’: Dancing On Ice’s Torvill and Dean open up about their relationship… as they prepare to bow out ‘on a high’
They’ve enjoyed 30 years in the spotlight as one of the most popular ice skating duos ever.
But Jayne Torvill, 56, and Christopher Dean, 55, insists they have never had a proper argument with each other before, despite their countless years on the ice together following their Olympic gold for Great Britain in Sarajevo, Bosnia, in 1984.
Christopher told The Sun newspaper: ‘I don’t think we’ve ever, ever had a falling out. Not a real one.’

Deadly duo: Jayne Torvill and Christopher Dean are preparing to go their separate ways after years of skating together
While the Dancing On Ice mentors are both in separate relationships – Christopher with Karen Barber, a judge on the ITV show, and Jayne with her husband of 24 years, Phil Christensen – the pair have previously admitted to being romantically involved once before when they were both single.
It is a subject the duo have not talked about too often but Christopher admits the pair were ‘really close’ during their brief romantic spell together.
He added to The Sun: ‘We were very involved. We were really close — we spent so many hours together training week in, week out.’
