Amanda Holden ‘certain’ of showbiz future for daughter Hollie after imposing ‘rules’

Television personality Amanda Holden has said she is confident her youngest daughter will make a name for herself in the entertainment industry.

The Britain’s Got Talent judge, 52, says her youngest daughter Hollie is a ‘natural performer’ and ‘has what it takes’ to forge a showbiz career. Amanda’s eldest daughter Lexi, 17, hopes to break into modelling, reports the Mirror.

This comes after Amanda said she insisted Lexi finishes her education and attends university before pursuing modelling, after the teen was signed to the same modelling agency that made Kate Moss a star.

Speaking in a new interview, Amanda - who has previously joked she is a Kris Jenner type momager - opened up about daughter Hollie showing signs she is destined for a life in the spotlight. "I feel like Hollie will do what I do, she's a natural performer," the mum-of-two mused.

"People have called her out saying 'she's got it' and not just because she's my daughter. She does all her little clubs, and everyone raves about her."

Talking to the MailOnline, Amanda added: “She lights up a room, she's miss personality, she's just gorgeous. She's the communicator of the family. She never stops talking.”

Speaking in March last year, Amanda explained that modelling is actually something Lexi wants to do and she is letting her daughter make her own decisions about her blossoming career.

"She's a very quiet girl but she knows her own mind. She's very bright and wants to continue her studies," she proudly told The Sun.

"She's got her eyes set on university and she has so many ambitions. We want them all to come true for her as any parent would.

The Heart Breakfast presenter added: "There's no pressure and we'll just see what happens. But finishing her education is very much her plan, she’ll have our support whatever she decides to do."
