Amy Dowden got quick medical help after she fell ill behind-the-scenes at the well-known dance show (which happened right after the main broadcast finished at Elstree Studios)
The medical team came to the tv-studio after 9pm: they took the welsh-born dancer to Barnet Hospital. The shows rep said that tonights pre-recorded results wont change because of this situation
The dance-shows team made it clear that they put dancers well-being first; theyʼve got special steps for such cases. Dowdens team said: “We called help just to be safe - shes doing better now but needs some private time“
About two months ago Amy came back to the show after beating breast cancer. She found out about her illness in may last year (just before her honey-moon started). After lots of treatment including a big surgery she got good news this winter; doctors said they couldnt see any more signs of cancer
- Got first cancer signs in 2023
- Had surgery and special treatments
- Returned to dancing in 2024
- Had another health-scare in august
The much-liked dancer - who started with the show back in 2017 - also deals with another health issue: Crohns disease which she found out about when she was young. She even made a tv show about living with it a few years back
