Amanda Holden's Pancake Day goes slightly wrong as TV presenter gets sprayed with oil in her PJs

Amanda Holden’s Pancake Day got off to a slightly wobbly start as she attempted to show off her pancake-flipping skills.

The Britain’s Got Talent presenter shared a video of herself in her luxury personalised pyjamas as she flipped the batter.

The video, which was posted in slow-motion, showed Holden smiling as the pancake went up in the air, before squirming as she got hit with a spray of oil from the pan.

But Holden was quick to brush off the gaffe as she giggled at the end of the funny clip.

Taking it in her stride, she jokingly captioned the post: “Flippin’ eck #pancakes #ShroveTuesday.”

Fans couldn’t get enough of the video, praising her for still catching the pancake while closing her eyes to protect them from the splash.

One user wrote: “Even with eyes closed!”

Another joked: “Eyes closed, luck or skill, that is the question.”

“Your face when it was in the air is fantastic," added a third.

Holden has become known for her iconic Instagram posts with fans frequently praising the presenter on her witty feed.

Supporters were previously sent into meltdown after Holden shared a snap of herself posing on the bed in just a shirt.

Holden teased that she “needs to fashion some under garments” in the morning, joking that she had been “inadvertently” snapped by husband Chris Hughes.

Earlier this year, her BGT co-stars Ant McPartlin and Declan Donnelly left fans in stitches after they mocked the star by recreating a glamorous snap taken in a shower cubicle.
