BBC Strictly Come Dancing star Amy Dowden makes 'tough' injury statement


Strictly Come Dancing professional Amy Dowden has been forced to pull out of the competition after being rushed to hospital after falling ill

Strictly Come Dancing professional Amy Dowden has said watching Saturday’s show from the sidelines will be “tough” as she wanted to celebrate one year since finishing chemotherapy on the dancefloor. Last Saturday, Dowden watched in the studio as Gill and Oakley danced to a Bruno Mars medley and earned the joint highest score of this year’s series. Dowden found a lump in her breast the day before her honeymoon to the Maldives with fellow professional dancer Ben Jones, and was unable to compete on Strictly 2023.
