Strictly Come Dancing star Amy Dowden has issued a special message to dance partner JB Gill as he prepared to dance without her on Saturday night.
The Welsh dancer, 34, was forced to pull out of this weekend’s show after collapsing backstage last week, with fellow professional Lauren Oakley being drafted in as her replacement.
And hours before JLS singer JB, 37, and choreographer Lauren, 33, took to the dancefloor, Amy – who is understood to be in remission after battling breast cancer and has Crohn’s disease – wrote a heartfelt message of support for the pair on social media.
