Amy Dowden admits she feels ‘bitter’ and says her life has ‘changed forever’

Strictly Come Dancing professional Amy Dowden admits she feels “bitter” and says her life has “changed forever” following her cancer diagnosis.

The 33-year-old, who was diagnosed with breast cancer last year, said she found the New Year celebrations difficult as it made her look back upon a difficult year for her and her family.

Amy has undergone several rounds of chemotherapy and had a mastectomy. She has also suffered from sepsis and blood clots from her treatment.

Speaking on ITV’s Lorraine on Wednesday (3 January), she also spoke of her hopes of making a return to Strictly.
