LUCREZIA Millarini is the famous ITV newsreader who became the fourth celebrity announced to join the show for its forthcoming series.
She’s shared a lengthy relationship with the broadcasting network, but now she’s stepping out of her comfort zone by joining its ice skating competition. Here’s the lowdown…
Lucrezia Millarini, 43, is a British journalist who has helmed a number of news programs on ITV, including ITV News London, ITV Lunchtime News and ITV Weekend News.
She started her career working for a local radio station based in Oxford before joining ITN’s digital team in London, which saw her reporting for the brand’s online department.
From there, Lucrezia went on to land a new position at ITV News London as an Entertainment Correspondent but has since become a regular presenter for the 6pm programme.
Lucrezia is convinced that she won’t be leaving the show without a few bruises from the intense training sessions she’ll have to commit herself to.
Nonetheless, the television presenter is stoked about the opportunity and says she can’t wait to see the progress she expects to make week-to-week.
“I’m super excited to be joining the line-up for DOI! I can’t wait to get out there on the ice and start training.
“While the news agenda is already pretty busy these days, I know life is about to get a lot busier…with a few bruises along the way!”
Lucrezia will be joining the likes of Love Island’s Maura Higgins, football player Kevin Kilkane and Michael Barrymore as they compete for the winner’s title and the iconic trophy.
There is still no date confirmed for the next series.
However, it is likely that the new series of the show will kick off around the same time as the previous two seasons, which have started on the first weekend of January.
If the trend continues, we could see the new series of Dancing on Ice start on January 5, 2020.
Given that she’s a journalist, it would seem rather important for Lucrezia to have a social media following – and she sure does.
On Twitter, she’s known as @lucrezianews – her account has over 10.5k followers, and you can tell she’s active on the site given that she’s tweeted almost 20,000 tweets.
And on Instagram, the TV personality goes by the username @lucreziaitv – in case you needed a reminder of where she works.
There’s no denying that Lucrezia has a love for animals, posing frequently with she also seems to be very big on nature, photographing beautiful landscapes every so often.
