Dancing On Ice's Emily Atack and Kieron Richardson sneak back to hotel hand in hand

By Chris Johnson

Blossoming romance? Dancing On Ice contestants appeared to be having some fun off the rink as they headed back to a London hotel together last night


Dressed in a grey body-con dress, Emily, 20, gave a wry smile at photographers who snapped them as they disembarked from their people carrier.

But a stern-looking Kieron didn't look so amused to have been rumbled.

A spokesman for Emily told MailOnline: 'They are good friends and they went out for a drink with a crowd of people after the National Television Awards.'

They may have different partners but it appears Dancing On Ice has brought Emily Atack and Kieron Richardson together.

Because last night they headed off to a London hotel together after the National Television Awards - presumably to discuss triple axels and toe loops.

And judging by the way the Inbetweeners actress was leading the Hollyoaks bad boy, it's clear who's leading the way in this partnership.

Last week fans of the ITV show Dancing On Ice saw him take to the ice for the first time as the male contestants took their first bow.

He made an impressive start with 17.5 points (out of 30), with mentor Christopher Dean labelling him the 'dark horse' of the contest.

But acid-tongued judge Jason Gardiner was not interested: 'Good energy, very misdirected. I didn't feel a connection with your partner.'

The previous week Emily got off to lacklustre start only managing to score 11 points

As well as her acting credentials, her other claim to fame is being Sir Paul McCartney's second cousin through her mother's side of the family.

It could make for some interesting behind-the-scenes with fellow contestant Heather Mills - Macca's infamous ex.
