Amanda Holden left Ben Shephard and Cat Deeley in sтιтches with a brutal swipe at her Britain’s Got Talent co-star Simon Cowell’s appearance live on This Morning.
The star appeared on the ITV show on Wednesday and opened up about new programme Cheated: Unfinished Business.
Amanda, 54, revealed she had watched last week’s instalment when Simon, 65, featured alongside Bruno Tonioli, 69.
Viewers were left distracted at Simon’s outfit, which consisted of a casual dark-coloured t-shirt paired with long grey shorts and his signature orange shades.
During Wednesday’s show, Amanda shared that she was equally taken aback by the music mogul’s clothing and commented: ‘I know he came on your show last week but can we discuss Simon’s trousers he wore?’
‘What was he wearing? Did he cycle in? Look at those! I mean he’s got a good knee,’ she added.

Appearing alongside co-star Bruno Tonioli, the music mogul sat down with Alison Hammond and Dermot O’Leary on Friday’s instalment of the ITV show
Ben laughed: ‘His trousers were as short as Bruno’s top was low.’
‘I saw it all and then I think I texted Lauren, Simon’s basically wife, and said did he cycle in?’ Amanda quipped.
Last week, viewers commented on Simon’s choice of outfit and posted: ‘#ThisMorning lovely trousers Simon.’
‘Looks like his trousers and ankles have had an argument #thismorning.’
‘Wtf is he wearing #thismorning.’
During the interview, Alison Hammond also commented on Simon’s orange sunglᴀsses and he revealed the reason why he wears the shades.
He said: ‘First of all, the world looks beautiful through them. And also, because I suffer from migraines, it helps with migraines and when I wake up at night and I’m reading because I read from an iPad, I put these on and it actually sends me back to sleep.’
Simon also discussed an audition from earlier this month which sparked a fix row.

During the final round of auditions on Saturday, singer Max Fox stunned both the audience and judges when he shouted out from the audience and begged to sing for the judges.
Max explained that he had tried to audition for 19 years but had never got through and begged Simon for a chance to take to the stage.

The singer left audiences gobsmacked as he delivered a powerful rendition of Frank Sinatra’s My Way, earning a standing ovation and the Golden Buzzer.
However, some people afterwards accused the moment of being a set up and Simon attempted to clear up the claims on This Morning.
He said: ‘On my life, I swear to God that was not a set up, I honestly thought ‘Okay, someone’s put in there’ and I said to producers ‘Come on, this is a set up right?’ and they went ‘No’.’
Simon went on to explain: ‘I just thought we’d never show it and he wanted to sing in front of me and I thought why not.
‘I was laughing so much and when the golden buzzer happened I said, ‘No one’s going to believe this’.’
Bruno agreed with Simon and added: ‘We never know what’s going to happen next… I love it.’
Despite Simon attempting to clarify the moment was genuine, some This Morning viewers were not convinced and took to X to share their thoughts.

One posted: ‘Give it a rest with this effing clip! It doesn’t matter how much they protest, I’m still not buying that it’s not a set up! #thismorning.’
‘”I swear to God that was not a set up” #thismorning.’
‘Of course it was a set-up. If someone in the audience stood up and started heckling Cowell security would tackle them to the ground in two seconds flat #thismorning.’
