Friday, July 31, 2026 -Former Strictly Come Dancing champion Ellie Leach has shared her relief after undergoing treatment to remove pre-cancerous cells, encouraging people to attend regular cervical screening appointments.
The actress revealed the experience was a reminder of how important early detection can be in preventing serious health problems.
Leach said receiving medical attention after abnormal smear test results helped doctors identify and remove the affected cells before they could develop into something more serious.
Her message has renewed attention on cervical health and the importance of not delaying routine checks, even when people feel healthy.
Health experts continue to stress that regular smear tests can save lives by detecting changes early and allowing treatment before cervical cancer develops. Leach’s experience is encouraging more people to prioritise screenings and take action when medical appointments are offered.
