<p>Among the star-studded members who will compete for the ultimate prize is one star many might find surprising. Olivia Newton John’s actress daughter Chloe Lattanzi, fresh from the US, is a face all in Australia might be familiar with.</p>
<p>Lattanzi has made headlines over the years for her heart wrenching ongoing battle with anorexia – a disease she is recovering with – not only under the watchful gaze of her family, but the media and devoted fans as well.</p>
<p><em><strong>Scroll through the gallery to see the full Dancing With The Stars cast.</strong></em></p>
<p>The 33-year-old has been on reality TV, having pursued a music career for several years, notably via US reality show <em>Rock the Cradle</em> in 2009.</p>
<p>During an interview aired on the show, Lattanzi opened up about her early life.</p>
<p>"My mum travelled a lot so I think I missed out a lot when I was younger," Lattanzi said.</p>

<p>Grease star, Newton-John, split with Chloe’s father Matt Lattanzi in 1995 and has also opened up about her daughter’s struggle with anorexia.</p>
<p>"She has had to battle this problem in front of the world, being judged and photographed by paparazzi, and it was hard," said Newton-John on the show as she choked back tears.</p>
<p>In 2017, Chloe’s famous 71-year-old mum announced her breast cancer had returned once again – an experience Chloe said was “profoundly painful”.</p>
<p>Chloe was thrust into the spotlight as a teenager when she sought treatment for her eating disorder.</p>

<p>In 2016, Olivia spoke of her daughter's mental health battle during an appearance on 60 Minutes.</p>
<p>"I think it's hard to be the child of a person in the limelight, I really understand that," she said. "There's privilege but there's also other things that come along with that."</p>
