Mills is rank outsider to win Dancing on Ice

Your support helps us to tell the story

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

Heather Mills has joined Dancing on Ice - but bookies make her a rank outsider to win the show.

Sir Paul McCartney's ex-wife has been confirmed for the 2010 line-up along with EastEnders star Daniella Westbrook, Gordon Ramsay's wife Tana, Olympic swimmer Sharron Davies and singer Sinitta.

Boyzone's Mikey Graham and former Coronation Street actor Danny Young are favourites to win the new series.

Mills appeared on Dancing with the Stars, the US version of Strictly Come Dancing, in 2007.

She will compete against The Inbetweeners actress Emily Atack, whose mother is Sir Paul's cousin, as well as The Bill's Gary Lucy, comedian and actor Bobby Davro, GMTV's Dr Hilary Jones, Hollyoaks actor Kieron Richardson, actor Jeremy Sheffield and actress Hayley Tamaddon.

Duo Jayne Torvill and Christopher Dean return to train the 14 celebrities, the largest number so far, while Emma Bunton joins the line-up of judges.

William Hill make Young and Graham their joint favourite at 4-1 and Westbrook (25-1), Mills, (25-1) and Jones (33-1) outsiders.
