Amy Dowden Returns to Strictly Come Dancing

Amy Dowden, a professional dancer on 'Strictly Come Dancing', is set to make her emotional return to the show after overcoming stage three breast cancer, which she was diagnosed with in May 2023. During a pre-recorded interview, she shared that her return is significant not only for her but also for her family, who have supported her throughout her journey. Dowden announced she is now cancer-free following a mastectomy and chemotherapy, and expressed her excitement about dancing again, stating, 'I'm absolutely loving it.' Her celebrity partner, JB Gill, emphasized their strong chemistry and expressed trust in Dowden's expertise as they prepare for their first live performance together. The pair will perform a waltz to Leo Sayer's 'When I Need You', marking a celebratory moment for Dowden after a challenging year. This series promises to be a celebration for her, contrasting the difficulties faced last year when her family watched her struggle with illness.
