Amanda Holden divides fans as she stuns alongside teen daughter on red carpet

Amanda Holden has caused a serious divide among her fans as she took her daughter along to her first big red carpet event. The Britain's Got Talent judge wowed her followers as she took to Instagram with snaps of her posing alongside model daughter Lexi at the British Fashion Awards 2022 on Monday night.

Prior to stepping in front of the cameras, Amanda filmed the 16-year-old getting glam for the star-studded event, held at London's Royal Albert Hall. As Lexi could be seen curling her eyelashes, Amanda penned alongside the video: "My little Lexi is coming to #fashionawards2022."

"She's going official," the mum-of-two added before tagging her eldest daughter's Instagram account. And she was clearly a proud mum as she posted a stunning picture of Lexi in a Sylvio Giardina black gown which featured a lace bodice and a ruffled skirt.

She accessorised with a pair of thin-strapped heels and added a layer of silver necklaces round her nexk while her blond locks were slicked back into sleek ponytail. Her mum, meanwhile, couldn't be missed as she donned an eye-catching red gown.

The Heart Radio host opted for an off-the-shoulder Nicolas Jebran number which appeared to be made out of shiny PVC material which clung to Amanda's sensational curves. The dress flowed to the floor with a train that matched the red carpet and while her shoes were hidden, we could see that her blonde tresses had been kept down and slicked back to create a voluminous style.

Alongside the snap of Lexi on Instagram, Amanda penned: "'Wednesday' vibes on a Monday for @lexi.hughes_official." And the compliments soon came flooding in. Former glamour model and TV personality Nicola McLean replied: "Omg Lexi is absolutely stunning."

Singer Shirlie Kemp simply wrote: "Wow!" Former Coronation Strete star Charlie Condou said: "My god, she’s looking so gorgeous!" Beauty expert and Strictly Come Dancing make-up artist Bryony Blake commented: "Stunning!!!!" Former TOWIE star Samantha Faiers added: "Beautiful. See you soon ladies."

Amanda also posted a snap of her and Lexi posing for the camera outside the iconic Royal Albert Hall. The pair looked more alike than ever as they beamed for the camera in their galmourous attire with Amanda writing: "All grown up @lexi.hughes_official. Celebrating #TheFashionAwards @britishfashioncouncil with @revivecollagen."

And again, the mother-daughter pair were inundated with compliments. Piers Morgan wrote: "Stunning!" Hollyoaks actress Lucy-Jo Hudson also kept it simple, writing: "Wow." Ru Paul's Drag Race star Michelle Visage replied: "Proud mama." TV star Kate Thornton commented: "Peas in a pod."

@gertie101 said: "Wow how stunning do u both look! Lexi is such a beautiful girl, takes after her Momma." @jane_carpfishing posted: "You look like sisters." @melanie.goody__ typed: "wow like mother like daughter stunning." @quinnie54 echoed: "Stunning both of you." @silvia_sisi_s added: "Both absolutely stunning. The dresses, the looks and the bond between you - very inspiring."

But some felt that Lexi appeared a little too grown-up. @jejackson30 said: "Oh no why do you want her to look old before her time." @birdbytheocean commented: "Sorry no, way too mature a look for such a beautiful young teenager." @claire.hooker1408 added: "Sorry but i think she 16 and she is dressed so much older let her be a teen."
