Few people can display charm and ambition quite like Amanda Holden, who seems to have the combination down to a fine art.
The presenter is riding high as a radio DJ on Heart Radio, her new E4 comedy The Holden Girls hit screens last year, plus there’s her regular judging role on Britain’s Got Talent.
But, according to insiders, Amanda still has her eye on the This Morning sofa. And, with rumours of possible changes at ITV, could Amanda, 50, finally get her dream job – and will Phil, 59, leave if she does?
The pair fell out publicly when Phil reportedly blocked Amanda – who had been a regular guest host on This Morning since 2014 – from filling in for Holly Willoughby in 2018 when she helped out on I’m a Celebrity.
At the time it was reported that Amanda gave Phil a ticking-off over the issue while her mic was on during a This Morning ad break and was said to have been overheard by the team.
