Shirley Ballas says she is living in fear following a recent cancer scare after she went for her routine mammogram. 

The Strictly Come Dancing head judge, 63, took to Instagram this week to tell fans she’s waiting for biopsy results after having the procedure and is now waiting for her results.

Twinkle-toed star Shirley, who had her breast implants removed in 2019 to make it easier for doctors to spot cancer, decided not to miss her mammogram after Strictly pro Amy Dowden, who is recovering from breast cancer, reminded her of the importance of getting tested.

Television personality Shirley was left shocked when the routine test revealed she had lumpy tissue in her left breast. 

Concerned putting too much pressure on herself may have driven her to ill health, Shirley told The Sun: ‘I’m worried I’ve worked myself to death.
