Melinda Messenger's luck finally ran out on Dancing On Ice when she was eliminated from the competition following the skate-off with Jessica Taylor.

It was the fourth time the former glamour model had been voted into the bottom two, but following her second performance to Denise Williams's hit Let's Hear It For The Boy the five judges unanimously voted to save Jessica.

Former Liberty X singer Jessica, who earlier in the show received a score of 24.5, the second highest of the night behind Ray Quinn, appeared shocked as host Phillip Schofield told her she was in the skate-off.

It was the first time Jessica, 28, had to dance for survival but Melinda knew she had no chance against her rival's more accomplished skating skills.

The 37-year-old model, who earlier received a score of 18.5, told host Holly Willoughby ahead of the skate-off performance: 'I may as well go and get my flowers now. But if it is the last time I just want to go and have fun.'

Jessica did her routine to Toni Braxton's languishing ballad Unbreak My Heart with her skating partner Pavel Aubrecht.

The 27-year-old presenter, who hosts the ITV1 show with Phillip Schofield, appears to be growing in size each week and is due to give birth to her her first child with her TV producer husband Dan Baldwin in May.
