Following her breast cancer diagnosis earlier this year, Amy has kept fans up to date with her journey, including candid posts about chemotherapy treatment and health setbacks.

Last week, Amy revealed she is preparing for her last chemotherapy session during an appearance on Channel 4's Stand Up to Cancer fundraiser.

"Today is a good day. I've got my last chemo session on Thursday. I'm ringing that chemo bell," she told host Davina McCall.

"It has been the toughest year of my life, but I'm just really hoping with the surgery I've already had and the chemo, that I've done enough."

Strictly Come Dancing airs on Saturdays and Sundays on BBC One, while spin-off Strictly: It Takes Two airs on weeknights on BBC Two. Both shows are available to stream on BBC iPlayer.
