Another week down, thank you to everyone who voted to take us through to Week 7 - Prop Week. Thank you to @jennytaps1 for your help with our Charleston attempts! Last week was a real struggle on many levels so it's nice to be back on track with a routine we've enjoyed planning and hopefully will entertain the audience (and maybe impress the judges). Lots of work still to do until Sunday but things are looking good so far! . . . . #DancingOnIce #planklift #propweek #teamlisaandtom

   Presenting some research today at British Association of Sports and Exercise Sciences Conference 2019 that I completed this year with the help of my brother @samueljnaylor on injuries in figure skating. Swipe for full version and abstract. Thanks to @phil1harris for allowing is to use his image! Thanks to everyone that took the time to be involved and submitted data to it too! Great conference so far in a really nice venue with some really interesting points raised that I'll try and post about later . . . . . #basescon19 @bases_uk @lcfc @britishiceskating #FigureSkating #figureskatingscience #sportsmedicine #sportsinjuries

   Tom Naylor is a professional figure skater who is starring on Dancing On Ice for the first time in 2020.

   You may have noticed him being introduced as 'Dr Tom', and that's because he also works for the NHS as a doctor and orthopaedic surgeon.

   The heath and fitness star previously performed in Blackpool's hit show Hot Ice, which described itself as "a thrilling combination of art and sport".

2. Is Tom Naylor married? Does he have a girlfriend?

   Tom's Instagram suggests that he is currently in a relationship with Team USA and Team GB coach and professional skater Yebin Mok.

   While it hasn't been 100% confirmed whether the pair are married or dating, a series of cute videos on his profile suggest that the couple also share a son.
