Strictly Come Dancing insiders fear Amy Dowden could quit the show after she collapsed backstage and was rushed to hospital on Saturday.
WHAT HAPPENED TO AMY DOWDEN?
The Welsh pro dancer, 34, has Crohn’s Disease and is believed to be in remission following a gruelling breast cancer battle.
JLS star JB Gill was forced to stand solo for Sunday night’s results show after his partner Amy collapsed backstage after filming wrapped on Saturday’s live show.
Amy, who missed the 2023 series of Strictly after being diagnosed with breast cancer, was forced to miss Sunday’s Results show, which was pre-recorded shortly after her collapse on Saturday night.
Now concerned insiders are worried Amy won’t be able to continue the competition, given the severity of her incident.
An insider told The Sun: ‘Amy was obviously in huge distress. Everyone around her was equally upset because they felt so helpless.
‘JB had to be given a hug. Even the medic who first attended to Amy needed support and consolation.
‘The only thing they could do was try to get her to hospital as quickly and safely as possible.’
Amy was diagnosed with stage three breast cancer the day after she came home from her honeymoon with husband Ben Jones in 2023.
THE TOUGHEST YEAR OF HER LIFE
In what became the toughest year of her life, the Strictly Come Dancing star underwent a mastectomy, chemotherapy, fertility treatment and also almost died of sepsis.
The dancer has battled gut condition Crohn’s disease since she was a child and said she has already been through ‘quite a lot’ in her life with health struggles.
JB shared an Instagram message on Sunday as the pair made it through to another week, writing ‘on behalf of both @amydowden and I.’
‘I just want to say a huge thank you to everyone for voting for us and wishing us well. We absolutely loved our performance on Saturday night and are SO grateful to be through to another week Thank you, thank you, thank you for your support.’
