Amy Dowden has been praised for a "truly inspirational" talk she gave to school students. The Strictly Come Dancing star travelled to Birmingham on Tuesday, June 27, to deliver a speech to pupils of Hallfield School in the Midlands on their prize-giving day.
The 32-year-old, who hails from Caerphilly, once taught dance classes with her husband Benjamin Jones at the independent school in Edgbaston. The trip comes following Amy's recent breast cancer diagnosis.
The Welsh star bravely shared the news with her Instagram followers in May, explaining that she'd found a lump before her honeymoon. She said: "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 dancefloor before you know it. Welsh love Amy."
