As she adds the starring role of Princess Fiona in Shrek the Musical\u00a0<\/span> to her already extensive CV, Amanda Holden tells Jane Gordon<\/span> about her career ambitions, her nicknames for Simon Cowell, her anti-ageing secrets and how she found true love with her very own Prince Charming<\/p>\n

\"'Although<\/p>\n

‘Although what happened is obviously horrifying, we can go on to have more children,’ says Amanda Holden about her recent loss<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

The adjective most often used in association with Amanda Holden in the past few months in no way matches the woman sitting across the table from me. The 40-year-old actress has repeatedly been described as \u2018tragic\u2019, but today the words that come to mind are strong, good-natured and, most particularly, professional.<\/p>\n

Before our interview \u2013 her first since the stillbirth of her son in February, seven months into her pregnancy \u2013 she has gamely posed for photographers (at one point stretched out across a grand piano in London\u2019s Criterion Restaurant) in her role as the \u2018face\u2019 of the newly launched TrimSole toning shoes.<\/p>\n

Now, nursing a skinny latte, she is expertly deflecting sensitive questions (of which more later) and, instead, gleefully talking about everything from the horror of baring her feet (she hates her \u2018sausage\u2019 toes) to meeting David Cameron, in a stream of consciousness that is both endearing and entertaining.<\/p>\n

\u2018David Cameron came up to me in the lift \u2013 this was before he was actually Prime Minister \u2013 and said, \u201cHello darling, we used to know each other.\u201d Thankfully, I did remember him: he used to work at Carlton Television, and when I was in [the Caroline Quentin sitcom] Kiss Me Kate \u2013 about 1999, I think \u2013 he was one of the execs and he was always knocking around,\u2019 she recalls.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Sharp, funny and honest (she can evade questions she doesn\u2019t like but she\u2019s far too open to lie), Amanda is undeniably multitalented. She can sing, she can dance, she can act, she can commentate (she was part of the American CBS network\u2019s team at the Royal Wedding) and she can even, she reveals with a squeal of embarrassed laughter, break wind to music in her current role as Princess Fiona in the West End stage version of DreamWorks\u2019 Shrek (where she\u2019s part of a cast that also includes Nigel Lindsay as Shrek and Nigel Harman as Lord Farquaad).<\/p>\n

Plus, I discover later in our interview, she can read upside-down. Glancing atmy handwritten notes, she points to No 25 (\u2018Twitter \u2013 250,000 followers\u2019) and informs me that she has \u2018closer to 450,000 now\u2019.<\/p>\n

\n

‘I made the mistake of confessing on TV that I had had Botox once. Now I don’t have it and if I ever had it again I would never mention it’<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

There is no doubt, too, that she is hugely ambitious (she would love a chat show, and hasn\u2019t ruled out the possibility of following her friend Piers Morgan\u2019s lead and transferring her career to the US), but ask her how she would define herself and she says, without hesitation, \u2018Mummy first, then actress, then presenter.\u2019<\/p>\n

Born in Hampshire to Judith and Frank Holden, she is one of two daughters (her sister Debbie teaches scuba diving in Egypt) and was performing almost as soon as she could walk. When she was four her parents separated and she has had little contact with her natural father since (as she says, \u2018he walked out when I was four, popped in once when I was six and sent me a present when I was 16\u2019). Amanda credits her mother and her stepfather Leslie Collister (who raised her from the age of five and whom she thinks of as \u2018Dad\u2019) for encouraging her to believe that she \u2018could achieve anything\u2019.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

\"Amanda<\/p>\n

Her first television appearance was as a cheeky but unsuccessful 19-year-old contestant on Blind Date in 1991 that has been wrongly assumed to be her \u2018break\u2019 into acting. At the time she was a first-year drama student at Mountview Academy of Theatre Arts in North London, and it would be several more years \u2013 and minor roles in everything from EastEnders to Jonathan Creek \u2013 before she became an established actress in series such as Cutting It and Wild at Heart. But it was being chosen as the female judge on Britain\u2019s Got Talent \u2013 alongside Piers Morgan (to whom she has become very close) and Simon Cowell \u2013 in 2007 that turned her into a household name and added another dimension (one that she clearly adores) to her career.<\/p>\n

I tell her that a friend of a friend who was at drama college with her (whom she instantly and enthusiastically identifies) had told me that all the boys were crazy about her but she seemed genuinely unaware of her appeal, preferring to be \u2018just one of the lads\u2019.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s a comment that has been echoed by Simon Cowell (whom she says, very affectionately, she calls \u2018God\u2019 or \u2018Darth Vader\u2019 or just plain \u2018Darth\u2019), who has said that one of the things he likes best about her is that she is \u2018one of the boys\u2019. When I suggest that maybe this refusal to use or even acknowledge her looks (at one point she says she is \u2018not in the same league\u2019 as Dannii Minogue or Cheryl Cole) is part of the secret of her success, she reluctantly agrees.<\/p>\n

\u2018Well, I certainly don\u2019t think I would use my looks or anything like that to take advantage of any situation. I don\u2019t know why, it\u2019s just not in my nature. I have a really close network of girlfriends and we are all the same \u2013 very practical, no nonsense; none of us is a diva or high maintenance. Being financially independent is very important, too. I could never rely on a man for that. I couldn\u2019t go out and spend the amount I spend on shoes if it wasn\u2019t my money,\u2019she says.<\/p>\n

Amanda\u2019s romantic history has not been without its difficulties \u2013 an early marriage to comedian Les Dennis and a subsequent affair with actor Neil Morrissey prompted a lot of bad publicity \u2013 but since she got together with music producer Chris Hughes in 2003 (they married in December 2008 with their daughter Lexi, then two, as bridesmaid) she has been blissfully happy. Indeed it is when she is talking about Chris and Lexi that she is at her most relaxed.<\/p>\n

Amanda had been aware of Chris \u2013 and he of her \u2013 for years before they got together but, self-deprecating to the last, she thought he was too tall and handsome to ever consider going out with her. \u2018Then I went to a fashion show during London Fashion Week in February 2003 and he said, \u201cYou are the prettiest girl in this room,\u201d and I just said, \u201cBog off, don\u2019t be stupid,\u201d because I thought it was a line, but it wasn\u2019t. And then we went out for dinner and it was a proper wooing, but we kept it under wraps.<\/p>\n

\u2018He is amazing \u2013 how lucky am I? He\u2019s so fit, I look at him all the time and say, \u201cI can\u2019t believe I am going out with you,\u201d and he says, \u201cYou are not going out with me, you are married to me, Mandy,\u201d\u2019 she says laughing.<\/p>\n

They live in a large house in Surrey with Lexi, now five, a \u2018mixed race\u2019 dog called Fudge, a siberian cat called Muffy and a garden with a bright green AstroTurf lawn. A vegetarian (although she cooks meat for Chris), Amanda is happiest at home slopping around in \u2018TrimSoles and Juicy Couture tracksuits\u2019.<\/p>\n

She is, she says, the \u2018least glamorous\u2019 mother at the school gates. \u2018Everyone looks amazing, I don\u2019t know how they do it \u2013 I have even been known to do the school run in my jammies with a coat over them. But I always wear sunglasses because I don\u2019t have time to put on eye make-up. I don\u2019t think Lexi\u2019s teacher had ever seen my eyes until last week at parents\u2019 evening.\u2019<\/p>\n

\"Amanda<\/p>\n

There has been endless press speculation about Amanda\u2019s youthful looks but she insists that she only had Botox once and that she could never have cosmetic surgery because of a skin condition. \u2018I made the mistake of confessing on TV that I had had Botox once. Now I don\u2019t have it and if I ever had it again I would never mention it. I wouldn\u2019t be able to go under the knife because I have keloid-prone skin, which means that any intervention, and particularly surgery, would leave me with massive scars. So now I just look to the latest noninvasive treatments \u2013 Thermage is brilliant, or Fraxel. They are skin-cleansing procedures that keep your collagen alive and awake with no knives or needles.<\/p>\n

In truth she has very girlish good looks that can \u2013 particularly when she isn\u2019t wearing make-up \u2013 make her appear much younger than she is.<\/p>\n

\u2018I have always looked young, that\u2019s the thing. Just before Christmas I bought a bottle of Baileys in Tesco and the man asked me for ID. I couldn\u2019t believe it. I said, \u201cLook, I am going to be 40 in two months, but I love you for asking!\u201d\u2019<\/p>\n

Amanda doesn\u2019t believe in diets and her enviably slim figure is due, she says, to the physical pressure of performing on stage in Shrek six days a week and, she quickly adds, the TrimSole leg-toning footwear that \u2018is as effective as going to the gym\u2019.<\/p>\n

Her evident delight in motherhood (she doesn\u2019t have nannies, relying instead on Chris and their families for childcare) is such that even after her recent loss \u2013 and an earlier miscarriage last year \u2013 she still hopes to have more children. \u2018I am an optimist. I think, as bad as life sometimes gets, there is so much joy and so much good stuff that there is a balance. Although what happened is obviously horrifying, we can go on to have more children.\u2019<\/p>\n

She had been due to give birth in late March but in early February she became aware that the baby had not moved for 24 hours and she went into the West Middlesex hospital where she gave birth to a stillborn son.<\/p>\n

\u2018I met the three midwives who looked after me through a documentary I made two years ago at the hospital and they are fantastic. They have gone on to become personal friends and they got Chris and me through the worst time of our lives. They went above and beyond the call of duty, both personally and professionally. I cannot thank them enough,\u2019 she says. The experience has drawn Amanda even closer to Chris, who she describes as her \u2018rock\u2019.<\/p>\n

\u2018We argue and bicker like all couples, and Chris calls me The Lip because he thinks I talk too much. But he is the love of my life and I am his and \u2013 how lucky \u2013 he is also my best friend, which is why we can get through anything. We are polar opposites. He is
very private, very closed, and I am pretty much an open book, but together it works. I always think we are like the plus and minus signs on a battery. It wouldn\u2019t work without one or the other of us,\u2019 she says.<\/p>\n

Their main focus now is Lexi, who physically looks like a mix of the two of them but shares her mother\u2019s character. Mother and daughter have a catchphrase, \u2018Never give up\u2019 (\u2018I say, \u201cNever give up, Lexi\u201d, and she says, \u201cNever give up, Mama\u201d\u2019). They are a very tight unit and family life \u2013 like motherhood \u2013 comes first on Amanda\u2019s list of things that define her.<\/p>\n

\u2018Lexi does these hilarious impressions of me and Chris. For me she goes, \u201cHello, darling!\u201d and for Daddy she goes, \u201cBe careful, Bundle, be careful. It\u2019s dangerous, Bundle\u201d. Chris calls her Bundle. You can see the difference in our parenting \u2013 I am there saying, \u201cCome on, darling, do it, jump a little higher\u201d, and Daddy is always there to catch her.\u2019\u00a0<\/p>\n
