Born in Caerphilly, Amy Dowden's dancing journey started at age 8 when she entered a campsite competition and hasn't looked back since. She was the 2017 British National Latin Dance Champion and remains one of the highest ranking ballroom and Latin professional dancers in the UK. Amy is also a four time British National finalist and in 2015 she reached the semi final of the World Championship.

 

Amy joined Strictly in 2017 and made history by becoming the first ever Welsh professional to enter the Strictly ballroom. Amy's celebrity partners have included Brian Conley, Karim Zeroual, with whom she reached the final, J. J. Chalmers, James Bye and Tom Fletcher.

 

Amy was diagnosed with breast cancer in May 2023 and following successful treatment has returned to the new series of Strictly where she has been partnered with JLS’s J.B. Gill. Prior to this charity show, Amy will undertake a national tour with fellow Strictly pro dancer Carlos Gu. Her autobiography Dancing in the Rain has recently been released.

 

Amy was awarded an MBE in the 2024 Birthday Honours for services to fundraising and raising awareness of Crohn's disease from which she suffers. She is a passionate supporter of CoppaFeel!

 

Carlos Gu was born in Taiyuan, China and is a Chinese National Champion. He joined Strictly Come Dancing in 2022 and was paired with Eastenders actor Molly Rainsford, with whom he reached the final and finished as runners up. In the following series he was partnered with Angela Scanlon. He has also performed on the Strictly Come Dancing Live tour.
