EMMA Bunton is to join the Dancing On Ice panel in the New Year.
The ex-Spice Girl takes over from Ruthie Henshall on the ITV1 show.

She'll join judges including acid-tongued Jason Gardiner.

Emma, 33, told TV Biz: "I can't wait. I've been a huge fan since the show began."

There’s a couple of familiar faces on Dancing On Ice, with legendary skating pair Jayne Torvill and Christopher Dean back to train the team of celebrities who will be competing.

The line-up for the ice-cool series is bigger than ever with 14 celebrity skaters – the highest number so far.

Heather Mills is sure to be grabbing most of the headlines - she’s been a tireless charity campaigner, and is of course well known after her failed marriage to Beatles star Paul McCartney.

Fiery Scottish chef Gordon Ramsay’s wife Tana is also taking to the rink, as is ex-Eastenders actress Danniella Westbrook and Olympic swimmer and presenter Sharron Davies.

The full list of celebrities also includes Inbetweeners actress Emily Atack, comedian Bobby Davro (who’ll doubtless provide some light relief), Boyzone’s Mikey Graham and singer and presenter Sinitta - will her ex Simon Cowell be at the shows to cheer her on?

The other contestants are GMTV’s Dr Hilary Jones, actress Hayley Tamaddon, ex-Coronation Street actor Danny Young plus actors Gary Lucy, Jeremy Sheffield and Hollyoaks regular Kieron Richardson.

All hoping to emulate the success of previous winners Suzanne Shaw, Kyran Bracken, Gaynor Faye and Ray Quinn, the celebs will be performing live each week to win the approval of those all-important judges.

Casting some beady eyes over the competitors will be Jason Gardiner, Nicky Slater, Karen Barber, Robin Cousins and new face Emma Bunton - perhaps hoping to spice things up a bit! Meanwhile This Morning duo Phillip Schofield and Holly Willoughby will right by the rink on presenting duties.

The former Spice Girl gave birth to son Beau, now 3, in August 2007 and has previously admitted that she and Jones would like another child.

"So our family grows," she wrote on Twitter this morning. "We are SO excited to announce we're having our 2nd baby and Beau's wish for a brother or sister has come true!"

The Dancing On Ice judge did not confirm when the baby is due.
