Amy’s getaway comes after a tough year for the Strictly star, who was diagnosed with breast cancer back in May.

Since her diagnosis, Amy has kept her followers updated on her battle. She recently finished chemotherapy, however, has suffered some health setbacks.

On Christmas Eve, Amy urged her followers to “cherish every moment” as she posed for a picture in front of a Christmas tree with her husband Benjamin Jones. She wrote: “Cherish every moment and everyone in your life! Merry Christmas all! We have @gkx_carlos [Carlos Gu] with us having his first British Christmas! Sending Welsh love to all, especially thinking of those who may find this time of year difficult.”

Amy ‘tired’ and ‘in limbo’

It comes not long after Amy exclusively revealed to ED! that she is feeling “tired” and “in limbo” waiting for the results of her end-of-treatment scan.

“I’m tired,” she told us. “I’m waiting for my results so I’m a little bit in limbo at the moment. So I’m not sure what’s next but that’s where I am at the moment, waiting for the results. I don’t know if they’ll be back before Christmas because I only had my scan last week.”

She then continued. “I’m not sure what’s next but that’s where I am at the moment, waiting for the results. I don’t know if they’ll be back before Christmas because I only had my scan last week.”
