It's been an emotional time for Christopher Dean.
The skating legend and his professional partner, Jayne Torvill, performed on live television for the last time on Sunday when the ITV skating competition, Dancing On Ice, hosted its grand finale.
The former Olympic champions took to the ice to perform their famous Bolero, the routine that granted them gold medals and international fame, and once their tour has come to an end later this year, they will both officially retire.
It's undoubtedly bittersweet for the TV judge. Although retiring means the end of an era, it also means that Christopher will be able to spend perhaps more quality time with his family.
Christopher and his partner, Karen Barber, live in a lovely home in Buckinghamshire where they likely host gatherings with Christopher's two grown-up sons, Jack, 26, and Sam, 24.
Who are Christopher Dean's sons?
Christopher shares two sons with his ex-wife, American skater Jill Trenary. The couple met in the early 1990s and tied the knot in October 1994.
Four years later, they welcomed their first-born, Jack, and two years after that, they welcomed their youngest, Sam.
The family resided in Colorado Springs, but in 2010, it was confirmed by their representative that they had decided to separate. For the sake of their sons, they remained on good terms.
Who is Christopher Dean's current partner?
Christopher is in a long-term relationship with fellow Dancing on Ice star Karen Barber.
The pair began dating in 2011 and in the early days of their courtship, they were photographed kissing outside a restaurant.
The two released a statement at the time saying: "We have been great friends for more than 30 years.
"Following recent media speculation, we feel the necessity to confirm that this year has seen a change in our relationship, but we are taking things very slowly, as it is early days. We'd very much like to thank our dear friends, who have been so incredibly supportive to us."
Before his marriage to Jill, the mother of his two sons, Christopher was married to French-Canadian World ice dance champion Isabelle Duchesnay, whom he met while helping her and her brother with their choreography. They married in 1991 but divorced in 1993.
