Christopher Dean wife: Dancing on Ice star FINALLY answers question on Jayne Torvill

“I don’t think we could have been as successful if we’d thought: ‘You know, I’m having fun doing this, but I’m going to go off her and party for a bit.’

“It took so much devotion. We put to one side all those other elements that we thought would conflict with what we needed to do. That’s how obsessed it was.

“It was almost like being in a ­monastery. It was a religion in its own way.”

Spending so much time together has often sparked rumours of romance, however, the pair insist the thought has never crossed their minds.

Torvill is married to Phil Christensen and has been since 1990.
