Amanda Holden shows off her sizzling figure in a skimpy white bikini while on a boat day with glam daughter Lexi Hughes in Greece

Daily Mail​6 days ago
Amanda Holden looked incredible as she soaked up the rays in a white bikini while kicking back with a cocktail during a boat day in Greece.
The Heart radio presenter, 54, showed off her trim frame in the skimpy two piece, which featured a triangle style top with matching bottoms.
Amanda, who accessorised the look with a paisley print bandana and a pair of black wayfarer style shades, looked completely relaxed during her sunbathing session.
The Britain's Got Talent judge is currently away with her family and her lookalike daughter Lexi, 19, has been sharing equally glam snaps.
Following their boat day, they enjoyed a night out together as Lexi posted a look at her outfit with her followers.
The model, who has been signed to Storm modelling agency since she was 16, cut a stylish figure in a linen yellow co-ord.
Amanda's new snaps come as Lexi shared her own pictures in a similar white bikini from their day at sea.
The model, whom Amanda shares with her husband Chris Hughes, posed in a white halterneck bikini.
The two-piece from Tess Daley's swimwear brand, Naia Beach, featured textured fabric and gold detailing.
Sharing an update to Instagram from the mystery location, Lexi pushed her wet hair back and accessorised with oversized sunglasses.
She captioned the photo: 'Boat day wearing Naia Beach.'
Lexi, who is no stranger to the camera thanks to her modelling career, has been following in her mother's famous footsteps as she forays into the showbiz world.
The beauty made her catwalk debut at London Fashion Week in September last year - walking for Tran Hung's show.
At the time, Lexi looked effortlessly chic in a floral mini dress adorned with 3D flowers, which she teamed with nude pointy ballet shoes that boasted gold detailing.
Speaking after the show, the aspiring model gushed: 'I was so nervous but I really enjoyed the experience. The other models were really nice to me backstage, and it was so much fun.
'The show was so beautiful and the brand and designers are visionaries - passionate about sustainability with 90% of the raw materials they use being environmentally friendly.
'I'm really proud that they trusted me with their design to support LFW. Everyone looked after me and it's surreal that tomorrow I start uni!'
Meanwhile, Amanda, who watched from the front row, added: 'We couldn't have been more proud of our daughter this evening walking in her first LFW show.
'This year has been a significant one for her, she has worked really hard with her A levels and she got herself into a top University. Chris and I love her to bits and her little sister Hollie looks up to her so much. It's a wonderful moment for her.'
The latest snaps comes after Amanda poked fun at her daughter sharing a steamy smooch with her boyfriend on their family holiday in Greece last month.
Lexi posted the PDA-filled snap on her Instagram of the pair kissing during a luxury boat trip.
It sparked Amanda, 54, to repost the loved-up snap on her Stories as she joked: 'Mmm I wonder what daddy will think... [laughing face emoji].'
After her playful joke, the mother-of-two later expressed her love for the pair as she commented a heart emoji on Lexi's post.
The lovebirds - who went Instagram official in January - rang in the New Year with her mother, father Chris Hughes and younger sister Hollie, 13, in Scotland.

Tyson Fury's plane forced to land shortly after takeoff as ‘problem found' with boxing star & family left ‘terrified'

TYSON Fury was left "terrified" after a jet he was travelling on was forced to land shortly after takeoff due to a "problem" with the aircraft. The retired heavyweight boxer was travelling with his family after marrying his wife Paris for the third time, 17 years after they first tied the knot. 3 3 3 However, their transport plans were scuppered after the jet they were aboard was forced to turn around mid-air and return to where it took off from after travelling just "100 miles". Speaking to his fans on Instagram, Tyson explained how there had been a "problem with one of the wings" on the aircraft, meaning it had to "turn around". He said: "So, we've travelled 100 miles on the plane and the captain's come over to me and said 'we've got to turn this plane around because there's a problem with one of the wings and it won't fix on the computer so we gotta try and get back and turn around'". The Gypsy King, 37, filmed the clip while onboard the aircraft, saying he was left "terrified" by the flight scare. He said: "Talk about totally sh***ing yourself. So we're now spinning the plane around and going back to the airport where we started. Terrifying." Clips from his stories on Instagram show the family aboard the aircraft as it turns back to where it took off from. Tyson captioned the video as "bad news". This comes after the retired heavyweight boxer tied the knot for the third time with his wife Paris. Fury first wed Paris in 2008, with his beloved wife having been by his side throughout his incredible career. The couple have seven children together; sons Prince John James, 13, Prince Tyson II, nine, Prince Adonis Amaziah, six, and Prince Rico, two, and daughters Venezuela, 15, Valencia, seven, and Athena, four. All seven kids were by their parents' side in France as they renewed their vows in an intimate ceremony. Posting several pictures from the special occasion to his 6.7 million Instagram followers, the Gypsy King wrote: "Paris Fury and I got married again; third time lucky. "We had the most beautiful day in the South of France, it holds a lot of special memories for us." Fury accompanied his post with Bruno Mars' 2011 hit "Marry You". Paris, 35, appeared to wear a bespoke white dress by self-portrait for the occasion while the Gypsy King wore a relaxed cream shirt, white shorts and sandals. The event took place in a picturesque French church and it appeared to be a family affair, with just the couple's kids in attendance. HAPPILY RETIRED... FOR NOW Fury announced his retirement from boxing in January following his second defeat to Oleksandr Usyk Last month, however, the Gypsy King's promoter Frank Warren said of his man: "He's made it clear he wants to fight Usyk."

The Two Gentlemen of Verona review – less smut, more mutt in RSC's delightful dog day afternoon

In the movie Shakespeare in Love, the theatre owner Philip Henslowe outlines the formula of his new star dramatist, including 'mistaken identities … a bit with a dog, and love triumphant'. As the film is set in 1593, the reference by screenwriters Marc Norman and Tom Stoppard is clearly to The Two Gentlemen of Verona in which romances overcome deceit and disguise and the clown Launce has a canine companion, Crab, who is prone to steal the show. During times of tight cultural budgets, such as now, there is an old theatre joke about the RSC being forced to put on One Gentlemen of Verona. Joanna Bowman's revival doesn't quite go that far but has radically cut the text (removing some but not all smut, the antisemitism and some sub-par poetry) for a running time advertised at 80 minutes but in performance 90. The aim is to attract younger audiences: the evening show time is a bedtime-friendly 5pm. Parents and teachers will perhaps advise their charges not to find templates for future relationships in the ruthless trickery between friends Valentine (Jonny Khan) and Proteus (Lance West) when both fall for Sylvia (Siân Stephens), prompting Proteus to fool cruelly current girlfriend Julia (Aisha Goodman). As Stephens is making a professional stage debut and the other three are also early in their careers, this confident and engaging quartet suggest the RSC has access to a flow of future talent. And, as ever, they do well to compete with the bit with the dog. Bowman and stage-handler Launce (a gamely upstaged Stu McLoughlin) completely fail to make Lossi, a silver haired lady lurcher, the 'sourest-natured dog that lives' as Crab is called in the text. Lossi draws an instant 'Aaaah!' from young and some older throats, especially when giving a presumably impromptu wide yawn during one of the longer speeches. Although some scholars make rigorous cases for the play being underrated, it seems reasonable to infer that Shakespeare was relying on Crab to divert the audience from sections that might have done with a refill of the quill. The director follows suit by adding other hectic distractions when the dog is not on. Actors slide down poles on Francis O'Connor's two-tier scaffolded set and, in the multitalented cast of 10, only Lossi doesn't play an instrument. The act four song, Who Is Sylvia?, usually a solo, becomes a full production number (composer John Patrick Elliott, music director Dan de Cruz) with guitars, violin and chorales. In Shakespeare in Love, the dramatist informs an appalled Henslowe that there will be 'no dog at all' in Romeo and Juliet. But, if there were awards for onstage dogs (the Bonies?), Lossi would win one and the RSC should probably check out the possibility of walkies-on roles elsewhere in the canon. Until then, she and her human co-stars provide a late summer afternoon's dream. At The Other Place, Stratford-upon-Avon, until 31 August
