THE Vivienne joked that she could "stay in bed and not put her face on" after securing third place on Dancing on Ice. 

The drag queen took to social media on Monday, March 13 and tweeted: "Well at least I can stay in bed and not have to put my face on for #gmb [Good Morning Britain]. What a night! Congratulations to @NileMW and @OliviaSmart. Fantastic winner."

After being voted off last night during the 'live' show, The Vivienne, who hails from Colwyn Bay, said: "It’s been the most amazing experience. I’m so used to living out of a suitcase on a tour bus or somewhere and this has given me structure in my life and I’ve got fit and I’ve met the most amazing friend in colleague.”

The former Rydal Penrhos pupil - whose real name James Lee Williams - made history as the first drag queen to compete on Dancing on Ice.

She delivered a seductive performance for her first routine in the final which landed her another full 40 points. The 30-year-old dressed in a vibrant red outfit and skated to Dark Horse by Katy Perry with her partner Colin Grafton.

After the skate battle against fellow finalists - Nile Wilson and Joey Essex, the entertainer was voted off and her dream of performing her version of the Bolero came to a dramatic end.

Olympic gymnast Nile and his skating partner Olivia Smart were crowned Dancing on Ice 2023 winners.

Nile said: “If Dancing On Ice has anything to say of entertainment, we’ve got 11 human beings all different shapes and sizes stood on this stage tonight with an allocated time to get good at something and we proved that we can do that."

Ahead of the final, The Vivienne took to Twitter in a video to say: "All we want to do is do each other proud and skate the Bolero."
