Pinkham denies 'Ice' bitching rumours

Dancing On Ice contestant Natalie Pinkham has claimed that there has been no bitching on the reality show.

Reports earlier this week suggested ex-Hear'Say singer Suzanne Shaw was clashing with Linda Lusardi and Aggie MacKenzie, but Pinkham, who was voted off the show on Sunday, insists there is a good atmosphere backstage.

"I talked to all of them all the time, and I never picked up that sense of bitchiness, I really didn’t," she told The Sun.

"Everyone was sufficiently different to get on well. I don’t see how there could be any clashing and I’m not just saying that. I’m sure I would have noticed.

"Sarah Greene sent me a lovely good luck card, and Samantha said how gutted she was that I was leaving, and that she could only imagine how sad I was, and that’s coming from another girl."
