Dancing On Ice star Vanessa Bauer reveals her abs in a plunging crop top

The controversy surrounding her latest professional partnership appeared to be forgotten on Friday as Vanessa Bauer took part in her latest photoshoot. 

The bubbly Dancing On Ice skater was in characteristically high spirits as she showed off her undeniably toned physique in three new shots. 

Sporting a mint green top, Vanessa, revealed her sculpted abs, 24, while offering the camera a bright, beaming smile.  

Finishing her look with a pair of tie-dye printed hotpants, the professional skater revealed a pair of shapely legs as she struck a series of coquettish poses. 

The new shots come after Vanessa reportedly denied being responsible for new Dancing On Ice partner Joe-Warren Plant’s recent break-up.

The Emmerdale actor, 18, split with his girlfriend Nicole Hadlow, 24, amid claims she was growing concerned he was more committed to the show than to her – with the pair unfollowing each other across social media. 

A source told The Sun: ‘Vanessa is hugely embarrassed by this. She’s insisted she has nothing to do with Joe and Nicole breaking up.

‘Vanessa has been accused of being at the centre of other partners’ splits but she says it is purely coincidence. She doesn’t want to be seen as a man-eater.

‘She gets on well with Joe. She’s been putting in long hours training and they’ve been spending a lot of time together but it’s nothing more than work, as far as she’s concerned.’

However Joe and Nicole have since reconnected with one another on Instagram, suggesting a reconciliation could be on the cards. 

A separate source told The Sun: ‘Joe’s so obsessed with her, but Nicole can get jealous. He’s totally in love and doesn’t keep it a secret.’

‘He’s so young and trying to progress his career. It’s a shame for him to be dumped while he’s on the biggest show on telly.’
