Inside Dancing On Ice star Christopher Dean's family life and past romances

Christopher Dean has been involved in popular show Dancing on Ice since 2006, alongside his Olympic partner Jayne Torvill.

It's often thought that the skating double act, who scooped gold at the 1984 Winter Olympics, are a couple, but they have actually never been an item.

When they were teenagers however, they did once share a kiss on the back of a bus but nothing else romantic occurred between them, they just had an amazing friendship, writes The Mirror.

Jayne has been married to her husband Phil Christensen for more than 25 years, and 64-year-old Christopher has been in a relationship with Dancing on Ice coach Karen Barber for over ten years.

However, Christopher's love life has not always been smooth sailing.

Between 1991 and 1993, he was married to French-Canadian World ice dance champion Isabelle Duchesnay, however they divorced as Isabelle was always jealous of skating partner Jayne, calling her the "other women in their marriage."

In 2013, it was announced that Chris was in a relationship with former Dancing on Ice judge Karen Barber.

News of their romance broke just months after Karen's marriage to skating coach Stephen Pickavance, who is the father of her daughter, ended after 21 years together.
