After Saturday’s Strictly debut show, Thomas Skinner opened up to Amy Dowden to discuss her feelings for her new dance partner.

Taking to social media after the show had gone out, Amy revealed what she really thought of her partner. Taking to Instagram she penned: “Tom is working so hard and is loving learning to dance ( more than he ever imagined). We are laughing lots too!

The comments made by Amy’s fans seem much less enthusiastic. One said to her, “You deserved better.” Amy, you look incredible. I’m glad to see you back. “Another added. I’m so sorry you got the short straw with him.” Another chime ined, “Painted Amy, I’m gutted for her, she deserved a better partner,” was not to be rated Tom’s chances.
Thomas promised Amy in his response, unaffected by some resentment.
He began by saying, “Really enjoyed training with you this week.” You have been through a lot, but you are truly amazing. demonstrates your leadership and motivation.
He told his partner, “I promise I won’t let you down.” “I might not be the best dancer,” I said. But I’ll work the hardest, I promise. I appreciate you treating me so graciously and making me feel so welcome. I can’t stop laughing at you. I’m anxious to hit the dance floor with you the following week.
After being diagnosed with breast cancer last year, Amy returned to Strictly as an inspiration to fans.
The dancer was diagnosed with stage three breast cancer the day before embarking on a honeymoon in the Maldives with fellow professional dancer Ben Jones.
Amy took a step back from her work obligations and Strictly as she was receiving treatment. She announced in February of last year that tests showed she had “no evidence of disease” and that she would return to Strictly Come Dancing for its 20th anniversary series.
However, Amy, who was working with JLS’ JB Gill, left the show shortly after being diagnosed with a foot stress fracture. She continued to be “on a mission to raise awareness” about breast cancer as she anticipates returning to the Strictly ballroom dance floor.
