Amy has recently launched a new BBC podcast titled Body Shaming and Me. The 32-year-old's eye-opening podcast explores Amy's debilitating battle with Crohn's disease after being diagnosed aged 11.
Appearing in BBC's Strictly Amy: Crohn's and Me, the professional dancer explained: "Dancing has pulled me through my Crohn's but it's a battle. I live in fear that what I love the most could be taken away. And I've been more ill this year than I have been in a long time."
