BBC Strictly's Amy Dowden has opened up about the moment she was given just 16 hours to live after developing a sepsis infection during cancer treatment.

Strictly pro Amy Dowden recently shared a harrowing tale of her battle with breast cancer. The talented dancer was hospitalised last year after she fell into septic shock during her first round of chemotherapy for stage 3 breast cancer, which doctors had discovered in May.

On the podcast, reports the Mirror, she remembered her family's distress: "My parents went into meltdown mode, Ben went into protection mode of them, and when they got to the hospital I wasn't in the room. I was having an emergency CT scan and my mum had to walk away." Her recollections turned even more poignant as she narrated about seeing her parent's distressed faces while recovering from her health episode.

On Instagram, she told her fans: "My biggest accomplishment yet! I won't be getting the all-clear for 5 years especially with a hormone fed cancer. But it was all worth it. Words I never thought I'd hear at one point."
