Amanda Holden has broken her silence following reports that there is a feud between the singer and Strictly Come Dancing's Bruno Tonioli. Bruno, 67, has secured the former job of comedian and children's author David Walliams, and will be joining Amanda, Alesha Dixon and Simon Cowell on the judges' panel for Britain's Got Talent (BGT).
Bruno has reportedly been rushed off his feet filming the first auditions alongside the BGT long-timers over the course of the last week, but there have been rumours that the dancer and Amanda are struggling to get on. It was reported last month that Alesha and Amanda were reluctant to sign their contracts for another series of the ITV reality show.
The pair of judges were said to be unhappy that newcomer Bruno had arrived to BGT on the same amount of money that they are on, despite the two singers having appeared on the show for more than a decade. Amanda has now cleared the air during an interview with The Sun, asserting that she loves Bruno's "energy".
