Joey is preparing for the launch of Dancing on Ice this Sunday. He is no stranger to celebrity competitions, having previously starred in shows such as The Jump, Masterchef, I’m a celebrity and SAS Who dares wins.
During the interview, Lorraine explained to Joey that a viewer had got in touch to point out that he had been on her show previously back in 2016.
After joking that she had “got a text” Lorraine said that Joey had been on the show but it was a long time ago and a different studio, so that may be why he made the mistake.
