Regan Gascoigne is one of 12 celebrities competing on ITV's ice skating show Dancing on Ice this year.
The 25-year-old is already a professional dancer and seems to have taken to the ice well too as he scored an impressive 33 points in the second week of the competition.
He is best known for being the son of former England footballer Paul Gascoigne, who played for Tottenham Hotspur, Middlesbrough and Rangers.

Before appearing on the show, Regan took to Instagram to share his excitement for participating in the show.
He wrote: "The Universe moves in mysterious ways! I love watching @dancingonice every year! I just never thought this would actually happen to me? I’m nervous, scared but mostly excited all at the same time. Hopefully I can stay on my feet?"
Regan admitted that his own background in performing and being on stage will help him within the competition but feels learning to dance on ice was a “totally different ballgame” as he had never skated before.
He said: "It's very different. It's so different like to be dancing on the floor you have friction and stability. With this, you don't. You're holding your core in a totally different way to how you would be when dancing. Lifting people is totally different. It's it is a completely different skill."
The performer, who is also a singer, is paired with American professional skater Karina Manta.
She made her debut on the show last year with Graham Bell - but left in the second elimination.
His dance background may be the key to continuing in the competition as Regan studied at the Hammond Ballet School before taking musical theatre at Tring Park School for the Performing Arts.
He went on to perform in The Nutcracker with the English National Ballet and has also sang on ITV's The Real Full Monty.
Regan has previously spoken openly about his sexuality including speaking about being bisexual in an interview with Lorraine on ITV in 2018.
At the time, he said that he wanted to come out in a way that "happened organically".
His sexuality was reported on in the media and he recalled his dad telling him: "I still love you no matter what".
