Amanda Holden's mum and daughters pick her controversial Britain's Got Talent outfits

Amanda Holden's mum and daughters are actually the ones who decide what outfit she should wear on Britain's Got Talent.

The Heart radio presenter, 50, has faced a lot of backlash for the types of dresses she dons on TV - with many going as far as filing Ofcom complaints over their "revealing" cuts.

But it seems as though Amanda is not actually the one who has the final say on what dress she should wear, as she revealed that the ladies in her life often give her their thoughts.

"If I'm trying on outfits for shows I'll say to [15-year-old daughter] Lexi: 'Is there too much side-boob?' or 'Is this too much?' and she'll grin and say: 'Go for it, Mum'," she told You magazine.

"I'll ask [husband] Chris if I'm looking like mutton and he says: 'Mandy, you could never look like mutton'. It's positive affirmation that we women need.

"My mum loves it. She just laughs about it. So does my daughter."

Last year, Amanda's Britain's Got Talent semi-final dress which sparked a whopping 235 Ofcom complaints.

She became the focus of criticism on social media at the weekend due to a low-cut dress that saw some viewers suggest they could see her nipples.

And that semi-final went on to spark 277 complaints to broadcasting regular Ofcom, with 235 of them concerning Amanda's dress choice.

Amanda was forced to defend her dress choice to critics, taking to social media to slam the haters.

"FYI. A boned corset dented the girls all night," she added, alongside some egg emojis.
