I'll be real wag

REBEKAH Vardy is on a mission to cheer up the country with her Dancing on Ice escapades.

The TV personality, who slides into action tonight, says training for the show has left her feeling toned and boosted her body confidence.

And as she prepares to don skimpy garb to skate, Rebekah laughs: “Hopefully I won’t put too many people off their breakfast!”

The 38-year-old – wed to Leicester City ace Jamie Vardy – can’t wait for the ITV show to get started.

She says: “We feel so fortunate. While people are having to stay at home, we’re able to go out and continue our skating. That, for me, has been incredible for my brain – to be able to focus on something that’s not reality.
