Amy Dowden has shared a heartfelt update on her cancer journey, just days after undergoing her second mastectomy. Earlier this week, Amy revealed she was having another mastectomy, which meant she couldn't take part in the remainder of this year's Strictly live shows. The 35-year-old was diagnosed with cancer in May 2023 after discovering a lump in her breast while on honeymoon. Amy frequently keeps her fans informed about her cancer battle, and today she commemorated a particularly poignant anniversary. On her Instagram stories, Amy shared a video of herself ringing the hospital bell, signifying her cancer-free status, as reported by Wales Online. Alongside the tearful clip, the dancer wrote: "Two years ago today." On Saturday evening, Amy received an outpouring of love and support after posting an update following her surgery. Cosied up on the sofa with a cuppa and surrounded by family, the professional dancer posted: "Home, resting up, still got my drain in but rrrrrready for the best entertainment and medicine there is for me..... @bbcstrictly good luck everyone." She added: "Cheering you all on from home! Lots of luck and love xxxxx." Host Claudia was the first to comment, leaving Amy some red heart emojis. Joanne Clifton also sent the pro some love hearts, while Karen Carney said, "Sending so much love." One fan wrote, "Have a lovely and restful evening." Another follower commented, "Sending love and healing hugs your way, Amy. "The strongest person!! Hope you have a speedy recovery, gorgeous girl!! sending so much love," another added.
