The pro dancer made the tragic announcement earlier this year that she had been forced to pull out of the 2023 series after she was diagnosed with breast cancer.
She later shared that her doctors had found “more tumours” and she would have to undergo chemotherapy.
Amy only married her husband Ben in June 2022 and found a lump in her breast the day before her honeymoon.
Speaking about her diagnosis, she said on Instagram: “Hey all, I’ve got some news which isn’t easy to share. I’ve recently been diagnosed with breast cancer but I’m determined to get back on that dance floor before you know it.”
Strictly Come Dancing returns to BBC One on Saturday at 6:30pm.
