Strictly Come Dancing professional Amy Dowden has said her heart is "breaking" after having to pull out of the rest of the dance competition due to a foot injury.
The Welsh dancer, 34, returned to competing in the BBC show this series after missing out last year due to undergoing cancer treatment.
In an Instagram post, she said she felt "free again" after getting to focus on choreography rather than cancer.
She wrote: "My heart is breaking right now. The past few months I finally felt like me again. Cancer was no longer the first thing I thought of when I woke up.
"It was choreography, music choices, which dances in which order, what we needed to work on. I felt free again. My goal since hearing those words you have cancer was to get back on the strictly dance floor. It's been such a challenge to get back, one I devoted 2024 too.
"Which with my incredible team we got there. Something I wanted to do for myself and loved ones. There was no feeling like it dancing again in the ballroom with my Strictly family."
