Torvill and Dean: Drama tells the story of the ‘iconic partnership’
Torvill and Dean are Olympic figure skating gold medallists who appear as head judges on Dancing on Ice. Dancing on Ice returns tonight at 6pm on ITV and fans of the show are curious to know if Jayne Torvill and Christopher Dean are married or not. Here’s everything you need to know.
Are Jayne Torvill and Christopher Dean married?
No, Jayne Torvill and Christopher Dean are not married.
The pair also have never had a romantic relationship and have stayed only as friends since they first met as teenagers in the 1970s.
The duo then went on to win gold at the 1984 Sarajevo Winter Olympics performing a routine to Maurice Ravel’s Bolero.
The intense relationship seen on the ice between the two caused many fans to believe the pair were actually together in real life.
Speaking to The Sun, Jayne said: “We’re taking a role when we perform. From performing so much, we’ve learned to be different people. We were in love for the two minutes that we were dancing.”

They have appeared together on Dancing on Ice ever since the show aired in 2006.
Previously, they were choreographers and coaches but since 2018 have been the shows head judges.
In 2013 they appeared on Piers Morgan’s Life Stories, Dean revealed they had “dabbled” in romance as teenagers which sparked “dabble-gate” and the rumours the pair had had a relationship.
However, ahead of the biopic called Torvill and Dean released on Christmas Day 2018, they did confirm they once shared a kiss.

Speaking to the Radio Times in December 2018, Jayne said: “We did actually kiss once – before we were a skating couple. We were in the back of the bus going to a league match, and it just happened. It was a one-off.
“We never talked about it afterwards. We laugh about it now. Chris comes out with things without filtering them, and on Piers Morgan’s Life Stories he said, “We dabbled.” So that’s what it is now – Dabblegate. It was a kiss!”
Christopher added: “Dabblegate” was just a teenage kiss in the back of a bus.
“We were 14 years old, and teenagers in the most naive sense. We didn’t talk about it much after. The skating was everything and having a relationship just didn’t occur to us.”
He added: “There is still a romance, though. I love Jayne. But in a passionate friend way.”

Jayne is now married her current husband, sound engineer Phil Christensen in 1990 and the pair have two adopted children together, Kieran and Jessica.
Christopher has been married twice and is now currently serrated from his recent partner.
From 1991 to 1993, Dean was married to French-Canadian World ice dance champion Isabelle Duchesnay.
In October 1994, he married American skater Jill Ternary and the pair had two sons together, Jack Robert and Sam Colin.
Sadly, Jill and Chris split in 2010.
Since 2011, Dean has been in a relationship with fellow English Ice skater and former Dancing on Ice judge, Karen Barber.
Karen has returned to Dancing on Ice this year as Head Coach.
