Sam Aston wins Dancing on Ice 2025, sparking viewer backlash: ‘Wrong decision’

Dancing on Ice 2025 winner revealed: Sam Aston sparks mixed reactions among fans

The 2025 season of Dancing on Ice has concluded, and the announcement of the winner has left audiences with polarized opinions. On March 9, the show celebrated its grand finale, hosted by the dynamic duo Holly Willoughby and Stephen Mulhern. The competition featured finalists Anton Ferdinand, Sam Aston, and Michaela Strachan, all vying for the top spot. Ultimately, it was Sam Aston, the beloved Coronation Street star, who claimed victory.

During the final, the remaining contestants put on one last spectacular performance, showcasing the skating skills they had honed over the weeks leading up to this moment. Esteemed judges Jayne Torvill, Christopher Dean, Ashley Banjo, and Oti Mabuse offered their critiques and feedback throughout the night. Yet, when the results were announced, it was Sam who garnered the most votes from viewers, securing his place as the champion. Michaela Strachan finished in second, with Anton Ferdinand in third.

However, not all viewers were pleased with the outcome. Social media erupted with mixed reactions following Sam’s win. One fan commented that while Sam performed exceptionally well that night, they believed Michaela was a worthy contender for the title. Others echoed dissatisfaction, claiming that the voting public’s decision was misguided. One particularly frustrated viewer dismissed the finale as the “worst in all seasons,” while another felt compelled to express, “Once again, the better skater loses.”

With such diverging opinions, the question remains: were fans satisfied with Sam Aston’s victory? Or did they think Michaela should have been crowned the champion? The debate continues, with viewers encouraged to share their thoughts on social media platforms.

As the show wraps up another exciting season, the stakes remain high for future contests and the ever-changing landscape of reality television.
