amanda because oh david
oh my god
you've actually crossed the line you
want to know what's hot simon cal
and amanda holden's not so secret
relationship
that's what's hot
hey what's up you guys it's samantha and
for today's what's hot topic we gotta
talk about something a little bit
juicy simon cowell and amanda holden
have been judges on bgt
from the very beginning and we have seen
their relationship blossom
right before our eyes on television it
does get a little bit
flirty at times and it has us thinking
is there more than just a friendship
there
so of course we have to start off from
the very beginning when simon was
working on pop idol
and amanda was working on a show called
cutting it
at the time in 2003 simon admitted i
really fancy amanda she has a glint in
her eye and she's very
cute little did they know years later
they would be working together
on one of the biggest stages on
television
amanda actually did reveal that her and
simon went out
on a date well it was kind of a date she
said first of all it wasn't
a date simon calls it a date but i call
it dinner
i'm just gonna go ahead and go out on
limb here and say if one person thinks
it's a date
it's probably a date so the pair went
out for dinner but she said it was more
of like a group date setting because
apparently simon doesn't really like to
go out with girls
on their own there were a lot of other
people there including my friends and we
were in los angeles for a friend's
birthday
and i sat next to him at dinner and we
had a really lovely dinner
my taxi was already booked for 10 30 p.m
and i have to say when it did come i was
gutted
because it wasn't a date she also said
that they were both single at the time
so
that makes sense um and she jokingly
said
that simon always tells people that he
hired her
because he fancied her but that's
obviously not true
you sometimes hire your judges based on
whether you fancy them was that the case
with amanda and alicia
definitely amanda why not lisa what's
wrong with lisa she's cute she's not my
type not my type not
something that really struck a bond
between amanda and simon is the fact
that he was able to relaunch her career
after her big cheating scandal in 2000
amanda was married to les
dennis and while she was married she had
an affair with actor neil
morrissey she said that during this time
the media was really misconstruing
information
and kind of painting her as a
homewrecker and a cheater
but simon being a good friend was like
hey amanda i have this great opportunity
for you
just a few years later and that's kind
of how amanda and simon establish this
great relationship on bgt
she said that bgt has allowed her to
really show
who she is now people think i'm not a
threat to anyone
simon has always said to me i've made
you more popular i'm like yeah you're
probably right
and the fact that simon thought of
amanda while he was putting together the
judging panel for the show
tells you a lot about their relationship
so the media and the fans of bgt
have always questioned if there is more
to simon and amanda's relationship
because we've seen them kiss on the show
peace no i'm sorry
pace because we've seen them flirt with
each other
but i think the connection goes a lot
deeper
simon and amanda both bonded over
personal tragedies
so amanda suffered a miscarriage and the
loss of her stillborn
son while she was working on bgt simon
also suffered from the loss of his
mother julie
while he was working on x factor and bgt
and i think that these experiences
really brought them together
and they were able to establish this
deeper emotional connection
in their relationship now as we both
know simon and amanda are both in their
own separate relationships
simon is with his longtime partner
lauren silverman
and they share their son eric and amanda
is married to chris hughes and they have
two children together but i feel like on
tv
we still get to see them have cute
banter
they're cheeky with each other and it
has even led to some interesting
on-camera moments
i accidentally let it slip but he
doesn't wear underwear and so i've
brought him some today
hey of course excuse me we basically
look the same so i love me there
[Music]
[Applause]
so of course when simon had his electric
bike accident last summer
everyone was concerned and amanda wanted
to make sure that she could check up on
him as much as possible
call him nonstop she kept getting
updates from
lauren and it just goes to show you that
she actually does care about simon's
well-being
we just want him to take the time to
recover because you know he's like he's
a blinking workaholic he never
stops so i i'm just glad he's got both
feet up and he's having a rest with his
family
so while simon was absent from bgt
amanda came clean
and said that she missed him she said
i certainly miss the closeness of
sitting next to him because simon
usually always pulls my chair closer to
him
as we love to discuss what's happening
on stage
that's kind of cute and kind of
interesting and we definitely did miss
simon and amanda's together during the
live shows on bgt
so amanda did this instagram live with
her daughter holly
and holly straight up says
yeah that'd be stupid so the media took
this
and it blew up because everyone was like
wait
does amanda holden's daughter know
something that we
don't so amanda realized that this
created a whole
slew of rumors and she had to clarify
what was going on so she said holly last
saw lauren when she was about to board a
plane back to america
during bgt auditions to go and visit her
eldest son
and so i could only presume that's what
made her incorrectly think it
in reality lauren and i have been
exchanging photos of our families in
lockdown
and simon's even learned how to cook do
you imagine that
chef simon in the kitchen yeah i can't
either
but there you go simon and lauren are
fine or
are they because recently we saw some
paparazzi photos of simon
and lauren having what looked to be an
argument
in public but i mean relationships are
hard and sometimes you get into
disagreements in public in the
supermarket you know
it happens so i mean for right now
i feel like simon and lauren are doing
okay
but we'll just have to wait and see how
amanda and simon
interact when bgt does come back
so in conclusion the next time you see
simon cowell kissing amanda holden's ass
on live television
it's probably just a playful side of
their relationship
or is it but i'm gonna let you guys
decide
so let me know down below do you think
simon cal and amanda holden
are just strictly friends or do they
have
actual feelings for each other and maybe
could possibly
be in a relationship in the future who
knows
