The intricate dress featured embroidered white lace flowers stitched on sheer fabric to give a hint of skin.

Amy wrote in the caption: "Who else is getting married this year? Although I was supposed to get married 2020 and everything was organised and rrready.

"Now it’s creeping up on me and I feel totally unorganised and panicking 🤣. Not turned into bridezilla yet though 🤣😉."

She added, however, that the frock in the picture was not the actual one she will be donning for her big day.

Amy said: "Btw this is not my wedding dress (keeping that top secret) but I loved my shoot day working with  trying on so many of their beautiful dresses.

"I’m super excited but getting so nervous I’ve forgotten to do/plan/organise something!"

The star of the Saturday night BBC hit, who has danced with the likes of Tom Fletcher and Karim Zeroual on the show, is engaged to fellow dancer Ben Jones.

The pair were initially due to wed two years ago on July 25 2020 but the marriage was postponed due to Covid.

Amy said at the time: “I’m not gonna lie, many tears were shed. At the beginning of lockdown I was quite naive and thought July was far enough away for it to have been possible.

“But, at the end of the day, over 40,000 people have lost their lives. We’re still going to get married."

Amy and Ben kept their romance secret for six years after meeting in 2011.

She said: “We were scared about our dance teachers and what they’d say.

“But little did we know, for the many years we tried to keep it under wraps, everybody already knew.”
