Amy Dowden showed off her toned stomach in a sexy cut-out green jumpsuit on Instagram on Friday as she visited Portugal for a hen party.

The trip comes after Amy, who beat breast cancer in 2023, sent an emotional message of support to Shirley Ballas following her recent breast cancer scare.

Strictly head judge Shirley, 63, took to Instagram to tell fans she is awaiting biopsy results after the procedure.

Sharing a selfie showing the bandage after the biopsy, she wrote: “Calling all women not to miss your mammogram. I went for mine and ended up going for a second one and a biopsy. Local anesthetic biopsy done. Now waiting for results.’

Shirley also mentioned Amy, who shared the news in February that she is cancer-free after being diagnosed with grade III breast cancer in May 2023.

She added: “Amy Dowden, you went through my mind. The importance of not putting it off. Go and get tested. Plus a regular breast check.’

In response to Shirley’s mention, Amy said, “Always here for you! Important message here everyone from @shirleyballas’.

Amy has vowed to return to Strictly almost a year after she was diagnosed with grade III breast cancer – the second highest grade.

The Welsh dancer has undergone a mastectomy and chemotherapy and will require monthly injections for the next five years.

She said: ‘I’m working very, very hard and getting my body back with rehab and physio. I have a brilliant team, so fingers crossed I’ll be dancing on your screens again later this year.”

Amy vowed: ‘If Strictly wants me back, I’ll be back’ and confirmed: ‘The aim and dream is to be back on the dance floor too. “Because I missed it so much.”

On the programme, Amy talked about life after cancer and urged people to volunteer with cancer charities.’

I was in the oncology department yesterday and got my monthly injection that I will need for five years. But I’m so grateful to have another chance at life.”

She added: “I have wonderful friends and family, the oncology unit, the nurses, the breast nurses, and also the public support is incredible.

Amy continued, “Unfortunately, one in two of us will be diagnosed with cancer in our lifetime. But charities such as Cancer Research UK, Macmillan Cancer Support, Young Lives vs Cancer, Breast Cancer UK. Without volunteers they would not exist.

‘Volunteers are the backbone, the heartbeat of all these charities. They help fund research, the reason I’m still alive.

‘Not only those who experience it, but also their families. As a volunteer you also get so much pride. It helps your mental health, there are so many benefits to it.”

Amy promised in April: ‘If Strictly want me back, I’ll be back,’ and confirmed: ‘The goal and dream is to be back on the dance floor too. ‘Cause I missed it so, so much

Also in April, Amy revealed that while she was undergoing chemotherapy, she received a sweet message of support from the Princess of Wales.

Amy said she “doesn’t want anyone” to go through a battle with the disease after Kate Middleton publicly shared her cancer diagnosis last month.

Speaking of loose women, Amy explained, “I was lucky enough to meet [Kate] during my chemo treatment, and she gave me so much time.

‘She was so nice. Basically her words were, “If there’s anything we can do, let us know.”
