Strictly Come Dancing's Amy Dowden has opened up about the 'tough love' she received about her potential of having kids when she debated undergoing chemotherapy again
Amy Dowden revealed she received "tough love" about her desire to have children following her diagnosis of stage three breast cancer.
Amy received the news she had breast cancer back in May and has been keeping her followers updated on her journey ever since. The dancer told the publication: "She gave me tough love and said, 'what’s the point of these embryos if you’re not going to have chemo? Because you won’t be around to have these babies anyway'."
After undergoing a mastectomy, Amy started fertility treatment as a result of her heartbreaking diagnosis. She explained that it was the "hardest step so far" as she let some of her family cut some of her hair before a hairdresser shaved the remainder off. She had only just begun checking herself, following a charity trek with the breast cancer charity CoppaFeel!
