‘I haven't got time for men – it's skating before dating'

Liberty Poole went through a huge confidence journey in the Love Island villa this summer, and now she’s set to embark on her next battle as she braves the rink for the upcoming 14th season of ITV’s Dancing On Ice.

Despite the bumps, bruises and ungraceful landings, Liberty tells new she’s welcoming the gruelling training. “I’m trying my best to persevere. It’s a lot more technical than it looks,” she says.

Skating may be full of perils, but there’s one part of Liberty that’s at no risk of getting broken right now – her heart. Given that her televised break-up with Jake Cornish in August proved to be a great source of pain for the 22-year-old, it’s no wonder she’s not looking for another romance, either on-screen or off.

“My love life is with myself and no one else,” she insists. “In terms of men, they’re non-existent. I haven’t got time for them, and I don’t want anything disappointing. I’d rather focus on myself.”

Here, Liberty chats to new about finding love in friendship, learning to be a little less humble, and about a new beauty collaboration that will have her good to glow for Sunday nights on the ice…

Hi, Liberty. We can’t wait to see you back on our screens in January. How’s training going?
