Amanda Holden expecting second baby

Britain’s Got Talent presenter Amanda Holden is expecting her second child, her publicist has confirmed.

The reality TV judge and husband Chris Hughes are expecting their second baby in March and are said to be “absolutely thrilled”.

“They say they cannot wait to welcome the new addition to their family,” said publicist Alison Griffin.

Ms Holden’s pregnancy will not affect her role as a judge on Britain’s Got Talent, and she does not plan on taking any time off from work when the baby is born.

“She’s very well. She’s feeling great. She’s very happy,” Ms Griffin said.

The actress-presenter will later this year appear as Princess Fiona in the stage musical Shrek, which previews at the Theatre Royal Drury Lane in May.

She gave birth to her first child, a girl, Lexi, four years ago.
