Amanda Holden says she needs to spend some time on her own before returning to the UK following her near four-week family holiday.
Taking to Instagram, the mother-of-two revealed she was 'scared' of the decision to fly solo for a while.
But she stressed it was something she just had to do before 'normal service was resumed'.
The 50-year-old flew off with her husband Chris Hughes and daughters Lexi, 15, and nine-year-old Hollie earlier this month for to Greece.
She kept us all updated with some sizzling bikini snaps and spent nearly four weeks in the stunning country.
But it seems that she's not quite ready to return just yet - and some me time is being taken before she jets back.
She explained her decision as Heart FM listeners again tuned in this morning to hear the radio host was absent.
Amanda posted: "I’m a mummy, a daughter and a wife first and foremost …the next few days I get to spend on my own ..just to be me!
"I mean …I am always me ..but I haven’t had time with me and absolutely no-one else for years and years. I am scared but looking forward to …doing nothing .. to wake up and only think of .. well..nobody but maybe me….. to read .. to swim….to count my freckles..
"I also know I’m lucky it’s only temporary…and after this last year I am looking forward to just having a think … before resuming normal service obvs."
But listeners to her breakfast show she co-hosts with Jamie Theakston won't be hearing her for a while yet.
One fans replied: "I am sooo happy you are having an amazing time, however, my mornings aren't the same,."
Amanda revealed her return date, replying: "Back on September 6th."
The Britain's Got Talent judge struck a pose on Tuesday alongside mum Judith, 71, and her girls in a cute family snap before they headed home.
The quartet proudly stood together in front of a scenic backdrop which showcased a flurry of green hills and a lake in the distance.
Sharing the image to her Instagram, the radio host simply wrote: "Family."
And the post was quickly liked by thousands of her followers, including Keith Lemon - whose real name is Leigh Francis.
The post also attracted an array of comments from some of her 1.7 million followers.
She had to apologised to pal Ant McPartlin earlier in the month for missing his wedding to Anne-Marie Corbett due to her break.
She took to Instagram to write: "So sorry we will miss @antanddec special day... we are still away.
"Sending our love and huge congratulations to Ant and Amzie on this amazing day..."
