Amy Dowden dazzled in a dusty pink gown as she made a triumphant appearance on the red carpet at the National Television Awards on Tuesday evening.
The Strictly Come Dancing professional even made sure to send an important message by wearing an elegant pin in support of breast cancer awareness, as the star continues her own journey with treatment.
The Welsh beauty's gown was a gorgeous floor-length, off-the-shoulder number complete with tulle effect layers. Amy wore delicate jewelled drop earrings and stunning glamourous makeup with her hair in loose curls. The dance champion will no doubt be cheering on from the audience as the BBC Ballroom and Latin competition is up for an award in the Entertainment category.
Amy, who revealed her breast cancer diagnosis with HELLO! back in May, previously announced that she won't be taking part in this year's series with a celebrity partner but hopes to have her own role in the show in some way, whether it's in video clips, appearances on spin-off show It Takes Two or joining the cast in the studio on Saturday nights.

Meanwhile, more recently, Amy opened up to HELLO! about her terrifying battle with sepsis earlier this summer after receiving her first round of chemotherapy treatment.
"At the time, I didn't realise that having a temperature of 37.5 or above could be fatal for a chemo patient. I just thought it was my reaction to chemo, but as it turned out, I had already got an infection," she explained.
"I felt freezing cold but I was all clammy and shaking. My mum and dad rang my red card [which provides the chemotherapy team’s contact details and current treatment information] and they said to hang up and ring the ambulance."
After being taken to hospital, Amy's family were shocked to discover that was then immediately treated for sepsis. Amy, whose memory of her time in hospital is very hazy, adds: “The doctors and nurses were telling me I had sepsis and that it was life-threatening, but I wasn’t taking it in. I didn’t become properly aware until later. I told my dad: 'I’ve got sepsis' and he said: 'I know!'."
Fortunately, the star responded to treatment very quickly and was able to return home the following week. During our interview with Amy, the star also met with the medics who saved her life during the frightening ordeal. You can read about it, here.
