Dancing On Ice star Mumba collapses

Irish singer Samantha Mumba collapsed at home with a mystery illness yesterday sparking fears she will quit ITV's 'Dancing on Ice.'
The singer was found to be suffering what appeared to be severe flu symptoms and dehydration, and was hooked up to a drip by medics - with her participation on the celebrity ice-skating show now under threat.
However studio bosses are reported to have called in additional medical staff to work on Sunday's live broadcast.
A source tells British newspaper The Mirror, "She was very sick but is resting now and is determined to get better and get back on the ice."
Samantha is one of the favourites to win the show after Gareth Gates and Hollyoaks actor Chris Fountain.
