Actress and Strictly Come Dancing star Amber Davies has said she is taking time off from the Legally Blonde The Musical UK tour because she has been battling a "lingering illness" for the past month. "After talking to my doctor, being on antibiotics and trying to recover whilst doing shows is getting me and my health NOWHERE," Davies wrote on her Instagram stories. "Been working on this lingering illness for a month now so I'll be off again from my beautiful Elle Woods." Davies has been playing the lead role, but was reportedly replaced by her understudy Hannah Lowther in Milton Keynes on Wednesday. Davies added: "This is the last thing I want, but there's no other way. I fear if I keep 'pushing through' I will be battling with this for longer than I need to be." The tour began in Leicester last month and has 10 months left to run. A spokesperson for the show said Davies will be back when she's well again. The 29-year-old said she "can't wait to be back on stage and feel like me again".…
