Doherty took to Instagram to post a motivational message encouraging people to going through similar treatments to keep "moving", reports etonline.com.

She also posted a video in which she can be seen performing an aerobics exercise to Pitbull's "Fuego", alongside celebrity fitness trainer Neda.

Alongside the video, Doherty wrote: "Radiation is tiring. It builds up within you and sometimes one just struggles to keep their eyes open. You can see how tired I am here but I'm still moving!! Any movement is so good during treatment, not just for the body, but for your mind as well. Cancer slayer."
