Amanda Holden showed off her incredible physique in a skimpy yellow ʙικιɴι as she posed in a stunning Instagram snap on Sunday.

As she continues her luxury holiday in Dubai, Amanda flaunted her impressive figure as she chilled by the pool.

The presenter, 53, displayed her age-defying looks in the striking two-piece and struck a pose on the poolside. 

Amanda is no stranger to showing off her gym-honed figure and previously detailed her extensive fitness regime.     

She revealed she runs three to four miles a week in addition to Kundalini yoga practice and a ‘Viking workout regime,’ in an interview with The Times in 2023.

Despite her rigorous exercise plan, she reiterates that she doesn’t do it because she ‘feels like she has too,’ and explained the importance of balance.

‘I am not a slave to any beauty or fitness regime because I love food too much. I eat cheese and ʙuттer and I love a drink,’ the TV star said.

‘But the deal I struck with myself was I have to run for my rosé wine in the summer and run for my red wine in winter. And I don’t do it because I feel I have to; I do it for my own discipline and dignity.’

Amanda joked that it’s ‘all down hill from your 20s’ but added that, like Cher, you can ‘turn back time’ with proper nutrition and exercise.

‘I’m from a generation of women who won’t [fade into the background] – we’ll flaunt our bits for as long as we can. I am certainly going to – even when they’re drooping down to the floor, I’ll scoop them up again,’ she laughed.

Amanda shared a heartbreaking tribute to her stillborn son Theo on the 14th anniversary of his death last week.

The radio host took to Instagram honoured her baby boy in a touching post, who was tragically stillborn at seven months in 2011.

She wrote: ‘Our beautiful boy would have been 14 today’. 

Amanda has previously spoken out about her experience in a bid to help other parents who may be struggling.

Back in 2011, Amanda was seven months pregnant with Theo when a routine scan revealed his heart had stopped.

The TV star and her husband Chris Hughes then made the devastating decision to have a caesarean following Theo’s pᴀssing.

Last year, Amanda shared a touching tribute to Theo penning: ‘You would have become a teenager today… #Theo’ 

In September 2022, Amanda revealed she was made to feel like a ‘game show contestant’ when a doctor told her she was ‘going home empty handed’ after her stillbirth.

The presenter worked with the baby loss charity Aching Arms and raised money for them as part of fundraising for her 3 Peaks Challenge.

Speaking with Ross Sullivan – a user of Aching Arms – on her Heart Breakfast show, Amanda spoke of her ‘awful’ experience and told of her hopes that the charity with help people to ‘avoid’ the kind of language that was used with her. 

She said: ‘I will never forget when I went through something, that I would imagine is very similar to your [experience]. 

‘We lost our baby Theo at 28 weeks, and they very sensitively moved me into another room so I could deliver him without having to hear the lovely babies screaming on a normal ward.

‘Often that’s not thought about, it’s little things like that. I remember the lady afterwards as well when we went for a chat also said ‘I know you’re going home empty handed’ is what she said to me. 

‘So I felt like some sort of game show contestant, so it’s all of that language that I know this charity will be helping people to avoid and educate them on how best to deal with something so awful. It’s just awful.’ 

Amanda also previously discussed Theo’s loss on her radio show while marking Nurses Day, saying: ‘I personally would love to thank the nurses. 

‘I know I talk about this a lot. And I never know whether I talk too much about it. But obviously, when we lost our son Theo to a still birth the hospital where I was looked after was unbelievable.

‘Jacki Nash got me through so much, Pippa Nightingale and Natalie Carter.’

Amanda married her husband Chris Hughes in 2008 and they are also parents to daughters Alexa, 19, and Hollie, 12.

WHAT IS A STILLBIRTH?

A stillbirth occurs when a baby is born ᴅᴇᴀᴅ after 24 weeks of pregnancy. 

If a baby dies before 24 weeks of pregnancy, it is known as a pregnancy loss.

Not all stillbirths can be prevented, however, not smoking or drinking, as well as not sleeping on your back and attending all antenatal appointments can reduce the risk. 

What are the signs? 

Signs may include the baby not moving as much as normal.

Pregnant women should contact their doctor immediately if they notice a difference to their baby’s movement. 

What are the causes? 

Stillbirths do not always have an obvious cause but may occur due to complications with the placenta or a birth defect.

They are also more likely to occur if women suffer from high blood pressure, diabetes or an infection that affects the baby, such as flu. 

Stillbirths are more likely to occur if women are having twins or multiple pregnancies, are overweight, smoke, are over 35 or have a pre-existing condition, such as epilepsy.

What happens after a stillbirth? 

If a baby has died, women may wait for their labour to start naturally or they may be induced if their health is at risk. 

Bereavement support groups are available to parents who have suffered stillbirths.

Some find it helpful to name their baby or take pictures with them.
