Matt Evers

Evers, who was married to a woman previously, came out as gay in January 2018 in an interview with Attitude magazine. He said it was partly the death of his uncle from AIDS and the presidency of Donald Trump that resulted in his decision to announce his sexuality publicly, saying: "I live my life by example, and I want to show young people that what you feel or how you were born isn't something bad."

Evers has competed in all twelve seasons of the ITV series Dancing on Ice, where he has been partnered with Bonnie Langford, Lisa Scott-Lee, Suzanne Shaw, Zöe Salmon, Heather Mills, Denise Welch and Jorgie Porter. While training, Evers was cut on the forehead by Porter's blade in February 2012, but continued with the season. The pair finished in second place. Since then, his partners have been Pamela Anderson, Suzanne Shaw, Candice Brown and Gemma Collins. In October 2019, it was announced that Evers would be part of the show's first ever same-sex partnership for the 2020 series, with Steps singer Ian "H" Watkins.

With his partner Heather Allebach, Evers won the Junior pairs title at the 1998 U.S. Championships. The following season, they competed at three senior international events, 1998 Skate Canada International, 1998 Cup of Russia and 1998 Nebelhorn Trophy. He quit competing and moved to Los Angeles where he worked for a number of years before receiving an invitation to join Dancing on Ice.

Matt Evers (born March 16, 1976) is an American pair skater, model and actor. He is the 1998 U.S. Junior champion, and has competed in every season of the ITV series Dancing on Ice.
