Strictly Come Dancing professional Amy Dowden has been open about her battle with cancer and in an update shared a snap showcasing a new wig, and fans are here for it.
Amy, 33, was diagnosed with stage three breast cancer in May, underwent a single mastectomy, and endured five rounds of chemotherapy. Amy also said earlier this year that doctors had found more tumours.
Still battling the disease, she has updated her fans along the way and after shaving her head as she underwent treatment, she has been experimenting with different wigs.
