Amy Dowden of Strictly Celebrates Career Milestone Amid Cancer Diagnosis

Amy Dowden revealed last month that she had been given a breast cancer diagnosis, but the dancer is still busy and recently said she would be working with an old co-star on a new project.

The Strictly Come Dancing contestant Sara Davies, who returned for the show’s 19th season and ultimately placed eighth, was pictured with the Welsh celebrity. Amy looked stunning in a white and brown gingham shirt, and Sara looked equally stunning in a chic blue and black dress as they both beamingly shared a glamorous selfie together.

Amy couldn’t contain her excitement as she exclaimed in her caption, “Working on something super fun with my super lovely @saradaviescc! EXACTLY what I needed!” Amy finished her post with a string of heart emojis.

Sara only teased on her Instagram Stories, writing: “Look who I’m with today!!!,” about the top-secret project they might be working on.

The comments section was immediately flooded with positive feedback, including from Amy’s co-stars Dianne Buswell and Graziano Di Prima, who both left heart emojis.

Enjoy!!,” one follower wrote, adding that “doing something different as a breast cancer patient feels so good! Otherwise it’s just lots of things being done to you and absolutely everything is about cancer.

In a third comment, someone wrote: “Such a lovely pic! Can’t wait to see what you’ve been working on,” and in a fourth, someone wrote: “Couple of superstars. Amy, I hope everything is good. “.

Considering Amy’s cancer treatment, it’s uncertain if she’ll be back dancing on our televisions when Strictly comes back this fall. The star previously admitted that competing was her “goal,” and she later told the Mirror that she would return to Strictly this season “if I only have radiotherapy.”. I won’t be able to stop once radiotherapy is finished, and Strictly is leaving the door open so there is no pressure. It’s having a goal to strive for. “.

She continued, “I’m picturing myself dancing on that Strictly dance floor. Just being back in the ballroom with the live audience, the adrenaline, and the ambiance. also the assistance of the entire Strictly clan. “.

Happily, she assured viewers that she would appear on the program regardless of what, saying: “And if I have to undergo chemotherapy, I’ll be present in some capacity, even if I’m wearing a wig. I know Strictly contestants who have gorgeous hair. I’ll be there, whether it’s on It Takes Two or up in Claudia’s area while we wait for the results. “.

The day before she and her husband Ben flew to the Maldives for their honeymoon, Amy first felt a lump in her right breast back in April.

The dancer, who is battling grade 3 breast cancer, bravely opened up about her devastating cancer diagnosis to HELLO! magazine.

She revealed, “My doctor told me there are three grades, and three is the most aggressive, but they feel like they’ve caught mine early and [told me] to not be too alarmed because grade 3 would be expected in somebody my age.”.

She continued, “I’ve been through a lot in my life, and this is another hurdle. But if I’m positive and strong, I’ve got a really good chance of getting back out on the dance floor as soon as possible. “.
