Amanda Holden is seen for the first time since Phillip Schofield spat leak

Amanda Holden may be caught in the middle of a spat storm, but arguing with Phillip Schofield looked like the last thing on her mind last night.

The Britain's Got Talent judge, 48, was surrounded by scantily clad dancers as she visited The Moulin Rouge In Paris on Saturday.

She donned a black minidress with sheer sleeves and a pair of skyscraper black heels for the night out.

Amanda, who is known for risqué dressing herself, looked in her element as she posed with the dancers, who were dressed in nothing but bright pink feathers with metallic bras and thongs.

It was the first time she'd been seen since more details of her feud with Phil emerged.

Amanda reportedly claimed Phil "cost" her a presenting role on This Morning as he told bosses she is "hard to manage."

She was so incensed she raised her concerns with ITV chief Kevin Lygo, reports claim.

A source revealed that “Phillip actively campaigned for Rochelle Humes to get the job despite Amanda being more experienced".

This was despite claims Amanda had been told "she’d got the gig."

The insider went on to reveal that Amanda "feels Phil unfairly used his powers of persuasion."

These concerns were apparently raised to Lygo last September and another female ITV star has allegedly complained about Schofield's "unreasonable actions".

Schofield is seen as "the king of daytime TV," and is "utterly untouchable", the report claimed.

They added that "things are increasingly toxic when the cameras stop rolling," and that there are some in ITV who are "secretly delighted that things are starting to emerge".

Amada used her Heart FM show to have a dig at Phil earlier this month saying the three things she wouldn't like to find in her home were: "Spiders, flies and Phillip Schofield."
