Amanda Holden left her Heart Radio producer aghast on Monday as she revealed she enjoyed a bath with her dog.
The presenter, 54, had joined co-star Jamie Theakston, 54, on their Breakfast show where she recounted her idyllic weekend in which she spent time at West Wittering beach in West SusSєx with her loved ones.
She told how her adorable puppy Minnie, whom she rescued in September, enjoyed her very first trip to the beach, but was left covered in sand following the excursion.
The Britain’s Got Talent star then revealed that she later drew herself a warm bath after returning home, before deciding to bring her pet pooch in with her for a good scrub down.
And while Jamie didn’t appear to be fussed by her revelation, the same couldn’t be said for their producer, with Amanda clocking that he was sitting with his ‘head in his heads’ as she told her story.
Recalling her weekend, Amanda told how Minnie ‘went nuts’ on the beach and had ‘loved the sea’, as did her other dog Rudie.

But instead of giving Minnie a bath of her own, the star decided to allow her pet to join her in her bath.
She shared: ‘I looked at Minnie the moocher, who’s my dog, and I just thought, I’m gonna put her in with me!
‘I need to wash her anyway because she’s covered in sand, so I took her collar off and we had a little bath together!’
Amanda continued: ‘I used all her doggie shampoo, so there were no products in the bath so please don’t write in. Minnie was loving it, she was living her best life. Then I got the dog conditioner and got a brush… why has our producer got his head in his hands?’
After observing the producer’s reaction to the news, Amanda went on with her story, adding: ‘I started brushing out her – because she got a little bit matted from her halter under her armpits – so I gave her a good brush, a good clean, and then I got out, but then I put Rudie in the bath water.
‘I just thought it saves a bit of bath water and then I gave him a good old scrub as well so everyone was clean and fluffy and lovely!’
Amanda and Jamie then put forward the question whether it is appropriate to have a bath with your dog, with Amanda adding: ‘What a phoner!’
As Jamie urged people to text in with their thoughts, Amanda revealed she believed it was appropriate to bathe with your pets before insistingthat she didn’t want complaints.

It comes after Amanda was snapped looking back on fine form last week after injuring her foot.
The star was all smiles as she wore a long, yellow coat over a matching yellow blouse and dark, floral skirt as she left Global Radio studios.
The presenter looked very much back to her usual, cheerful self after she sustained a foot injury last weekend that left her ‘struggling to walk’.
Amanda said she believed her foot was not broken at the time and this appears to be the case as she was back in modestly-sized heels today.
The Britain’s Got Talent presenter told fans that the injury was the result of trousers that were too long and ‘mᴀssive heels’.

She explained: ‘Remember when Naomi Campbell fell over on the catwalk? Well that happened to me, but I’ve ripped…. it’s the leg that I broke.
‘You know when I first joined Heart and I managed to break my leg? It’s that leg and I have got nan foot
‘So, all weekend I’ve had a blue foot and I’ve been in my slippers, so I’m trying to [go for] either an MRI or an X-ray.’
But while Amanda did not break her foot, she admitted the pain she was in was ‘even worse than breaking it’.
