She said: “The worse thing was I couldn’t say anything because of my contractual obligation.
“So, somebody was really taking advantage of the fact that I couldn’t talk, I didn’t have a voice. It was frustrating, it was hurtful, I had to shut down my Twitter account as a result.”
Her spokesperson told Metro.co.uk: “Caprice received very little support from ITV and had to seek external help of her own accord. She has been seeing a counseling psychologist as well as two doctors on an ongoing basis.
ITV has defended the show’s aftercare and a spokesperson said: “We take our duty of care very seriously.
We have always been fully committed to ensuring that everyone involved on Dancing On Ice is fully supported and keep a close eye on everyone’s well being throughout the series.”
Dancing on Ice continues on ITV tonight at 6pm.
