Amanda Holden Celebrates 55th Birthday with Glamorous Dubai Getaway
Television personality Amanda Holden has been turning heads with a series of stunning bikini appearances during her luxurious birthday celebration in Dubai. The Britain's Got Talent judge, fresh from a topless photoshoot marking her 55th birthday, shared multiple poolside and beach moments that have fans declaring her the 'hottest 55-year-old.'
Sun-Drenched Vacation Reel Showcases Multiple Bikini Looks
Holden posted an Instagram reel documenting her sunny escape to the Banyan Tree Dubai resort, where she enjoyed quality time with family and friends. The video offers glimpses of the property's gorgeous swimming pool, accompanying bar area serving fresh fruit and homemade ice lollies, and her luxurious suite complete with dining and living areas plus a substantial outdoor balcony.
'I'm in a bikini and I mean business,' Holden quipped at the video's opening, slipping her robe off one shoulder to reveal a vibrant orange two-piece. She later posed poolside in the same ensemble, accessorized with tinted sunglasses, before switching to a turquoise bikini while relaxing on the sand at a private beach with a cocktail in hand.
Celebrity Praise and Fashion Details
The actress and presenter completed her fashion showcase by strutting from an outdoor changing room in a yellow bikini paired with a matching loose shirt and gold flip-flops. In her caption, Holden praised the 'incredible hotel' with its 'beautiful resort beach' and 'stunning' pools, noting the property's super-chic atmosphere and exceptional spa.
Her followers responded enthusiastically, with former TOWIE star Jess Wright commenting: 'The hottest 55 year old!' Pussycat Dolls icon Ashley Roberts shared a dynamite stick emoji while telling her celebrity friend she was 'looking good.' Holden revealed all her swimwear came from designer Melissa Odabash.
Britain's Got Talent Return Promises Chaos
This special birthday holiday precedes Holden's return to television screens for Britain's Got Talent's 19th series. The judging panel now features former guest judge KSI as a full-time member alongside Holden, Alesha Dixon, and Simon Cowell. This personnel change has reportedly revived Cowell's 'naughty side,' with the music impresario purchasing a trove of stink bombs that producers subsequently banned after discovering them.
Alesha Dixon has promised this season represents a return to 'the chaos that we love on our show,' describing it as 'more than ever it just felt really bonkers.' The competition continues to offer its champion a £250,000 prize and a performance spot at the Royal Variety Performance.
Britain's Got Talent returns to ITV1 and ITVX on February 21 at 7pm, bringing with it the familiar blend of talent discovery and behind-the-scenes antics that have made the show a long-standing favorite.
