Amanda Holden defends sharing pictures of her lookalike daughters on social media

Amanda Holden has defended sharing pictures of her children online.

While the Britain's Got Talent judge and radio host used to be private about her kids Hollie, seven, and Lexi, 13, she's recently opted to showcase them more online.

Now, she's explained the reason behind her change of heart, gushing that she's just too "proud of them" to keep them hidden.

"We did [wait] for a long time and then they've ended up all over my Instagram. For so long we did shots of them from the back and as they've grown up it's a pride thing, you end up being so proud of them," she told Gemma Rose Breger and Sam Silver on web series, This Is Mothership: Sofa Sessions .

"I listened very intently to my husband [Chris Hughes], he's not in the public eye, he doesn't really come to events with me.

"He's very private and he wanted to keep them private but the minute he said ''lexi looks blinking gorgeous you have to post that.''

"[Lexi] gets quite embarrassed but the youngest loves it she says ''post it mummy post it.'' So they're not private anymore."

It's no wonder Amanda can't help but share pictures of her daughters, as they're absolutely adorable.

As another agreed: "Beautiful like her mama".

Meanwhile, a third fan gushed: "Gorg! She's a mini you!," after spotting a recent photo of Hollie on her feed.
