No rivalry here! Dancing On Ice contestants Stephanie Waring kiss with Max Evans and he locks his lips in a steamy display following ITV Gala... days after rehearsals kick off for 2018 series

They are both preparing to hit the chilly realms of the rink for Dancing On Ice.
Yet Stephanie Waring and Max Evans were heating things up on Thursday night when they departed the ITV Gala at the London Palladium, after which they appeared to lock lips in a steamy exchange on a Rikshaw.

The 39-year-old Hollyoaks actress left the venue clutching her rugby ace co-star's hand before she draped an arm around his neck and he scooped her into a clinch with one hand - while chivalrously holding her shoes in the other hand.

Kiss, kiss: Stephanie Waring and Max Evans were heating things up on Thursday night when they departed the ITV Gala at the London Palladium, after which they appeared to lock lips in a steamy exchange on a Rikshaw

Stephanie was the twelfth person confirmed for the ice skating-based reality show while Max's place was announced last week with rehearsals already in full swing.
Seemingly already having formed a firm friendship, the duo were extremely close as they enjoyed a Rikshaw ride through the streets of London.

Holding hands, they walked down the street in a giddy fashion with Stephanie showing off her endless legs in her plush gown.
She let her stunning look crumble slightly as she shed her shoes later in the evening while Max chivalrously held on to her heels.

As she hit the red carpet, Stephanie put on a very busty display in the statement piece which flaunted a thing-splitting finish.

 The actress looked youthful and radiant in her very elegant make-up, which featured winged cat eyes and a rosy pink lip shade.

She accessorised with a complementary simple necklace and drop earrings. The star curled her blonde locks and styled them in the sophisticated up do to complete her classy look. (Daily Mail)
