Strictly Come Dancing chiefs had to dial 999 in a panic after Amy Dowden became unwell backstage.
The professional dancer, aged 34, made a full-time comeback to the show this year following her fight with cancer.
However, it's believed she fell ill just moments after her Saturday night performance with JLS star JB Gill on the dance floor.
A representative for Amy stated: "Amy was feeling unwell and so an ambulance was called as a precaution. She is feeling much better and would like to thank the Strictly family for their love and concern. We request Amy's privacy in matters of health is kindly respected."
A spokesperson for the East of England Ambulance Service confirmed: "We were called just after 9pm on Saturday to attend a medical emergency at Elstree Studios in Borehamwood.
"An ambulance was sent to the scene. One patient, an adult female, was transported to Barnet Hospital for further care."
Earlier, Amy and JB Gill wowed the judges with their foxtrot to Toploader's Dancing In The Moonlight, earning a score of 32.
Du Beke praised it as a "super duper performance", while Revel Horwood felt Gill could have pushed the scarecrow character even further.
Amy was overjoyed to be back on Strictly full time this series.
In an August chat with Prima, she opened up: "Strictly has changed everything, from the opportunities it's given me I've got to do tours, travel the world, buy a house, open a dance studio to the people it's brought into my life... I've been in life-or-death situations, so dancing a one-minute-30-second routine for entertainment isn't quite the same as walking into chemotherapy."
