Claire Sweeney, who stars as Cassie Plummer in Coronation Street, is set to lace up her skates as she competes on Dancing on Ice. Speaking about her participation on the ITV show, she confessed to Prima magazine: "I wanted to challenge myself. You get little vulnerabilities and anxieties with menopause and you start to lose your bottle as you get older, so I want to conquer some fears and get my confidence and chutzpah back." As reported by the Nottingham Post, Claire also expressed excitement about joining the ice skating show.
