Greg’s hopes of taking part in the final have been shattered after he sustained a ‘significant’ injury on the morning of rehearsals.
His pro partner Vanessa James broke the news in an Instagram post on Sunday, sharing: ‘Unfortunately Greg has sustained a significant injury this morning at rehearsals and won’t be able to perform tonight.
‘We are on our way to the hospital for Greg to get examined further and receive the treatment he needs.’
An ITV spokesperson added in a statement to MailOnline: ‘Sadly Olympian Greg Rutherford MBE has had to withdraw from Dancing On Ice after sustaining an injury whilst in rehearsals for the final episode of the current series.
‘Greg and Vanessa have been such a popular couple this series and have performed some truly memorable routines.
‘We will be helping to support Greg and wish him well with his recovery. We also want to thank him for being such a treasured member of the Dancing on Ice family.’
