Amanda ‘laughs off’ Ant row
‘BGT stars were just having fun’
AMANDA Holden has laughed off claims of a Britain’s Got Talent row with Ant McPartlin.
Moody pictures emerged but the show judge said she actually laughed “too much” at auditions.
AMANDA Holden has laughed off rumours of a “heated discussion” at the Britain’s Got Talent auditions.
Onlookers said something appeared to have “pressed her buttons” as she waited for a photocall in Manchester this week. Yesterday, the Daily Star exclusively revealed how the 47-year-old screwed up her face as she chatted with BGT host Ant McPartlin, 42.
Following intense speculation of a bust-up, mum-of-two Amanda took to social media to dismiss the rumours, insisting she had been very happy at the auditions.
The actress shared a picture of Simon Cowell, Ant and Dec, Alesha Dixon, David Walliams and herself all smiling as they headed to host the event. She captioned it: “Loving #Manchester @bgt. #fabulous #first #day up here – loads of fun. Too much #laughter.” A source close to the star said: “Amanda and Ant are just chatting. This picture was taken while they were posing in front of hundreds of fans and press.
“There simply wasn’t any form of heated discussion whatsoever.”
Ant’s representative said: “Ant and Amanda were not having any form of argument. They were literally having a conversation.” However, the Geordie star himself remained quiet yesterday, not mentioning the alleged row on social media.
It happened as the ITV show was filming at The Lowry theatre.
