Amanada Holden enjoyed a right royal celebration to mark the coronation of King Charles III. The Britain's Got Talent judge was a world away from the antics on Saturday night's episode of the ITV talent show as she and her family went out for afternoon tea.
In the latest episode of BGT Amanda roared with laughter as nineties iconic TV character Mr Blobby turned up to audition as a magician. She and fellow judges Alesha Dixon and Bruno Tonioli gasped in shock as the blundering pink character summoned head judge Simon Cowell on stage, and Simon ended up being gunged with pink slime.
It was a very different and serene scene at The Ivy cafe in Richmond as Amanda, 52, smiled alongside her look-alike daughters Lexi, 17, and Hollie, 11 for a treasured photo. Celebrating the #kingcharles #coronation #longlivetheking," she wrote as she shared the snap on her Instagram.

"Beautiful ladies," commented Coronation Street star Tina O'Brien. And her Heart Radio co-star Ashley Robets told her: "What a squad." Sarah Lou praised: "That is some gene pool." Moschino Model asked: "Which one of you is Amanda." And polluarrrright said they looked like "3 peas in a pod."
Amanda was previously flooded with compliments as she shared a gorgeous photo of three generations to mark Mother's Day. She posted a snap on Instagram with her daughters and mum Judith.
She wrote: "All together… all day. Time is the best gift of all. Love to all of you lucky enough to have it today..a big cuddle and my thoughts to those who don’t."
And to mark International Women's Day on Wednesday, March 8 Amanda tugged at the heartstrings with a photo montage as she gave a shout-out to all the important women in her life, including her daughters.
"It takes a village doesn’t it?" she wrote. "To get through life you need help and love and great people to lift you and sometimes shove a glass of wine in your hand! I feel very lucky and grateful to be surrounded by these incredibly defiant, fabulous women!
"I admire them all so much and over the years stood in awe of their achievements! The advice, care and support as well as the endless laughs are something I can’t live without."
"Side by side. Hand in hand we stand strong -we can achieve anything we can change anything. ( because,bloody hell,there’s still a lot to change)."
As well as afternoon tea, Amanda enjoyed a rainy walk with her dog on the King's Coronation Day. "Affer all the pomp and ceremoy, bubbles and cake, there's nothing better than a wet walk in wellies," she told her social media followers.
She also shared throwback pictures of the times she met King Charles in character as Princess Fiona in Shrek the Musical, and she met his wife in a special of Paul O'Grady's For The Love Of Dogs. "Lucky enough to meet King Charles several times but when I was Princess Fiona was my favourite," she said.
