It comes as the mum-of-two has been taking a break from her judging duties on ITV's Britain's Got Talent. Over the last several weeks, she has been starring in the talent show for the audition part of the new series, alongside fellow judges, Simon Cowell, Alesha Dixon and Bruno Tonioli.
Bruno, well-known for being a judge himself on BBC's Strictly Come Dancing, has become the latest addition to the judging panel on BGT after he replaced long-standing ex judge David Walliams. Last year the comedian stepped down following leaked offensive recordings he made of contestants.
Amanda has been sharing her ensembles for the show with fans online. A recent outfit she revealed she wore during one episode of the show was a bright pink satin bodycon dress, paired with silver high heels.
Another was red maxi dress with a thigh-high split, which she teamed with matched red heels and large gold hoop earrings. A third saw her in a white cocktail dress along with white stilettos and white long gloves.
As reported by the Express, Amanda Holden's birthday trip abroad came as she suffered a wardrobe malfunction during Britain's Got Talent auditions as her microphone fell down her dress. As she made her way to her seat, she released the microphone that had suddenly started slipping down her back.
She reportedly quickly grabbed the back of her dress and took the mic to address the awkward moment. In a video shared on TikTok by an audience member, she can be heard saying: "Say no to crack! Literally, my mic pack has gone right down my bum. You'll be hearing all kinds of interesting noises."
