BBC Strictly Come Dancing's Amy Dowden says it's 'that time of the month' as she shares 'first' update

manchestereveningnews.co.uk:

Amy Dowden has shared an update following her cancer battle last year. The Strictly Come Dancing star told her fans it was 'that time of the month' as she was seen back at the hospital for her regular injection.

Last May, Amy was diagnosed with breast cancer after finding a lump just before heading on her honeymoon with Ben Jones following the dream wedding.

She quickly underwent a mastectomy and then underwent a tricky course of chemotherapy treatment that saw her face a number of setbacks and meant she couldn't take part in last year's series of Strictly.

Amy is now, however, gearing up for her return to the BBC One dance contest but before heading to rehearsals on Monday (August 5), she headed for the monthly injection she needs as part of her ongoing treatment.
