Strictly dancer Amy Dowden has opened up on her dreams of starting a family with her husband Ben Jones - but treatment for her cancer has made it a more complicated journey that she'd hoped
Strictly professional dancer Amy Dowden has revealed that she is creating five embryos with husband Ben Jones - after being told by doctors that she can no longer conceive naturally following her cancer treatment.
The Welsh star has now revealed that they were successful in doing this - but can’t try to start a family yet as it would create hormones in her body that may feed the cancer. “I'm sat there with my husband, and obviously children were on the radar or, you know, plans. And that I think was like a double stab to the gut, and what I found probably harder than the words "you have cancer".
'So hopefully in the future. I'll have to wait a little bit of time, unfortunately, because I have got a hormone-fed cancer.
