Love Island: All Stars contestant Chris Taylor has signed up for Dancing On Ice, MailOnline can reveal.
The influencer, 34, joins former TOWIE star Ferne McCann and The Traitors' Mollie Pearce on the 2025 lineup, which begins in January next year.
Holly Willoughby and Stephen Mulhern return to present the new series as Chris prepares to swap dating for dancing on the ITV show.
Love Island fans were shocked when they spotted Chris in the Barbie movie alongside A-list stars Margot Robbie and Ryan Gosling after he landed a cameo role in the summer blockbuster last year.
The actor appeared in the film as a version of Ken but was on the big screen for less than 30 seconds after saying the sentence: 'And the Nobel prize for horses goes to Ken.'

A TV source told MailOnline: 'Chris has absolutely loved his return to TV this year.
'Viewers didn't have the chance to get to know the real Chris when he was on Love Island in 2019 but since then he's appeared on All Stars and Celebs Go Dating, with his profile continuing to rise.
'He loves a challenge and is excited for Dancing On Ice, it's a move away from dating shows and will really put his limits to the test.'
An ITV spokesperson said: 'The full lineup for Dancing On Ice 2025 will be announced in due course.'
After finding fame on Love Island in 2019, where he met ex-girlfriend Maura Higgins, Chris gave romance a second chance on the first All Stars season but failed to make a long-lasting connection.
Chris dated Arabella Chi before their romance ended on sour terms and he later made a move on Molly Smith, who declined his advances, and eventually won the show with boyfriend Tom Clare.
When the summer series of Love Island launched in June, Chris joined former Islanders Amy Hart and Indiyah Polak as hosts of The Morning After podcast and appeared with presenter Maya Jama on the Aftersun panel.
He joined the cast of E4's Celebs Go Dating in August and spoke openly about his past struggles with 'social anxiety', which negatively impacted his romantic life.
