Amy Dowden has shared an update on her Strictly Come Dancing future, just weeks after revealing her devastating breast cancer diagnosis. Taking to her Instagram Stories on Monday, the star shared a radiant photograph of herself wearing a hot pink dress on the set of Strictly Come Dancing. In her caption, the Caerphilly-born dancer penned: "My goal through all this is getting back dancing as soon as I can".
Amy's encouraging message comes after she spoke to the Mirror about her participation in this year's Strictly contest. Opening up, Amy, 32, revealed: "If I only have radiotherapy, I'll be back on Strictly this season. Once radiotherapy is done there'll be nothing to stop me, there's no pressure but Strictly is leaving the door open. It's having something to work towards".
She went on to say: "I'm visualising myself on that Strictly dance floor. Just being back in the ballroom with the live audience, the adrenalin and the atmosphere. And the support from the whole Strictly family".
Only last week, Amy underwent a single mastectomy. She is now waiting to find out whether she'll need radiotherapy treatment, or chemotherapy, too. View this post on InstagramDespite her cancer battle, the spirited dancer is determined to dust off her dancing shoes.
During her conversation with the Mirror, she later added: "And if I have to have chemotherapy, I'll be present in some way, even if I'm in a wig. I know amazing hair people with Strictly. Whether it's on It Takes Two, or being up in Claudia's area waiting for the scores, I'll be there".
