The 41-year-old former model, who lost her left leg after being knocked over by a police motorcycle in 1993, has been learning to skate with an instructor at a rink near her home in East Sussex.
The first pictures of Mills as she gingerly steps on to the ice show that she has attached a white ice skating boot to her prosthetic limb.
And she then gives a tentative and shaky smile as she moves around the rink, before managing to skate a few steps by herself.
After a few minutes she was able to perform a few moves unaided, without the need to employ the padding strategically placed around her rear in case of a fall.
A friend told the Daily Mail: ‘Heather is a big fan of Dancing On Ice and she would be thrilled and delighted to take part. She will tackle it in the normal way, with hard work and determination’.
The next series starts in January.
