Amy Dowden on reuniting with Strictly co-stars
Amy Dowden took to social media and penned an emotional message to her dad on his birthday.
The Strictly Come Dancing star posted a series of images of herself and her father, including on her wedding day to husband Ben Jones last year.
The BBC favourite admitted it wasn’t quite the celebration she hoped for as she underwent her first chemotherapy session.
Amy captioned the post: “Happy birthday to the most amazing dad @richard_dowden… I am sorry it is not the birthday planned. Better times ahead and we will have even more to celebrate…”
She continued: “Thanks for everything especially these past few weeks and days. Love you @richard_dowden.”

The candid post was shared via her Instagram stories as she marked her dad’s birthday milestone.
It comes as Amy has been inundated with support since she announced the news she had been diagnosed with breast cancer.
She then went on to have a mastectomy, after which another form of cancer was detected, for which she is now receiving chemotherapy.
The dancer first shared her cancer diagnosis back in May, writing: “I’ve decided I want to share my chemo journey to help raise awareness, hopefully get others checking and for understanding what we go through.
