Britain’s Got Talent star Amanda Holden has shared a candid revelation about her husband Chris Hughes’ antics, even though the story makes him ‘look really bad’
Radio presenter Amanda Holden has spoken out about wardrobe malfunctions with her Heart FM co-presenter JK, arguing that such embarrassing incidents can occur to both men and women, after JK suggested it was “more of a female thing”.
To illustrate her point, Amanda chose to recount a story involving her husband Chris Hughes.
She said: “This makes my husband look really bad, but it’s very funny. We once went to Center Parcs with our lovely friend.
“This is ages ago and our friend’s dad was bringing his kid out of the pool, he was holding the kid in his arms and Chris pulled his trunks down. He had nowhere to go except walk out of the pool with a baby in his arms.”
When asked whether the friend had sought revenge on Chris, 51, for his antics, Amanda, 55, replied: “No you can’t get Chris back, he does a double knot on his…he’s learnt.”
This is not the first occasion Amanda has opened up about her domestic life with her husband, whom she married in December 2008. Together, the couple have two daughters, Alexa and Hollie.
In a recent interview with The Times, Amanda offered a glimpse into her routine upon arriving home, and how her rescue dogs play a vital role in greeting her at the door.
She said: “I kick off my heels then lie on the floor so the dogs can lick my face. I have two rescues: Rudie, a 14-year-old Yorkshire terrier/Jack Russell cross, and Minnie, a one-year-old toy spaniel/shih tzu cross.”
While Amanda is fond of the animals she and Chris keep at home, she revealed that he has firm boundaries regarding where they are permitted to sleep.
She added: “I’m not fussy about where the animals are allowed but my husband is, so they all have to sleep downstairs.”
However, she admitted that when he is away, the rules shift somewhat. She added: “I love it if my husband’s away because then they’ll sleep on the bed with me.”
As well as rescue dogs, Amanda also has a rescue cat called Bolt from the Greek island of Corfu, whom she met whilst filming Amanda & Alan’s Greek Job with comedian Alan Carr.
Bolt joined another cat in her household called Muffy, and Amanda says the pair don’t get on very well.
Amanda made the admission on her Heart FM show earlier this year, sharing: “My garden is such a sun trap and I love it because all the animals go out and find their little spots in the sun apart from moody Muffy who is not over the fact we rescued a cat from Corfu. She hates it.
“She’s gone from being a beautiful serene princess, beautifully housetrained, never been to the vet, travels with us to the Cotswolds, she’s just gorgeous, to now weeing on our bed.
“She’s got no kidney infection, nothing. We know it’s spite, we’ve got a proper cat behaviourist coming out. We’ve had two brilliant ones coming out and unfortunately that didn’t work out but we’ve got another one next week.”
