She told Janette: “I’m absolutely gutted. I have an insufficiency stress fracture on my shin.
“Nothing to do with my injury last year. I need to rest for a couple of weeks. JB has obviously got to continue but hopefully I’ll be back dancing in some capacity by the end of this series.”
I want to stress it’s nothing to do with any previous health scares.
Amy said she’s been keeping up to date with JB’s training with Lauren.
The dancer then broke down in tears as she gushed over her friendship with JB.
Speaking about being back with everyone dancing, Amy tearfully said: “It was everything. Sorry, I’m heartbroken.”
Janette, 40, then reached out to hold Amy’s hand as she said: “It’s okay. You’ve got this.”
Amy said: “Being back with the Strictly family was the best rehab…” as she wiped away tears.
Amy then stressed that her injury is nothing to do with previous health scares. She said: “I’m just gutted because I was having the best time. It’s been such an incredible experience.
“This injury could have happened to anyone. I want to stress it’s nothing to do with any previous health scares.”
