Claudia Winkleman sent her love to Strictly Come Dancing pro Amy Dowden as she shared an emotional health update with her followers. Earlier this week, Amy announced she was having another mastectomy, meaning she would no longer be able to appear on this year's Strictly Come Dancing. The Welsh Strictly Come Dancing star, 35, was diagnosed with cancer in May 2023 after finding a lump in her breast while on her honeymoon. And on Friday, Amy shared an update with followers, with a picture from the hospital. She wrote: "Thank you for all the messages and love. Sorry, I’ve not replied to anyone (only just looked at my phone). "Surgery went well, and lots of sleep and resting up. Hubby & Family have been looking after me and the besties have turned up with the goods and nothing is stopping us from watching the Traitors…keeping the tradition going." She was surrounded in her hospital bed by her loved ones, who brought gifts, while Amy was hooked up to a drip. However, on Saturday night, Amy shared an update with her followers, and she was inundated with messages from her Strictly co-stars. Alongside a photo of Amy sitting on the sofa with a cup of tea, she wrote, "Home, resting up, still got my drain in but rrrrrready for the best entertainment and medicine there is for me….. @bbcstrictly good luck everyone. Cheering you all on from home! Lots of luck and love xxxxx." Host Claudia was the first to comment, and she flooded Amy's comment section with some red love hearts. Joanne Clifton also sent the pro some love hearts, while Karen Carney said, "Sending so much love." One fan wrote, "Have a lovely & restful evening." Someone else 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 went on. Strictly Come Dancing is available to watch on BBC iPlayer.
