Laura Hamilton will never forget tree trunk legs jibe from Dancing On Ice's Jason Gardiner
Laura Hamilton, 38, wowed Dancing On Ice fans with her incredible moves and tricks, which led her and her skating partner Colin Ratushniak to the ITV show’s grand finale in 2011. However, the A Place In The Sun presenter has now admitted one particular comment from notoriously tough former judge Jason Gardiner, 49, played on her insecurities about her legs during her time on the programme.
When quizzed on her relationship with the Australian choreographer, who left Dancing On Ice in 2019, Laura explained that although she “quite liked” him as a judge, she wasn’t happy when he compared her legs to “tree trunks” following one of her performances.
The star said: “I quite liked him, even though there were times when he sort of said things and I thought, ‘Oh that’s horrible’, I did really like him.
“He says it as it is and there was a comment that I will always remember sticking in my mind about my legs being like tree trunks or something.
“And it’s the one thing that I have always hated about myself, my legs – they’re quite muscly.

“So when he said that, it did hit home – it’s one of those things that I’ve always hated.”
Fortunately Laura revealed her ability to be thick-skinned helped her following Jason’s swipe.
She added: “But ultimately you have to be thick skinned, you just have to take it.
“It was him, it was what he said, and I didn’t hate him for it, it was like, ‘Okay, move on’.”
Laura then admitted she still struggles with disliking her legs, but hopes her love of fitness will help with her insecurities.
She divulged after discussing her passion for keeping fit in lockdown: “I hate my legs at the moment.
“But I know I have to do something about it.”
It comes after the Channel 4 favourite reflected on an agonising injury she suffered during the first week of rehearsals.
