Glamorous and empowered Amanda Holden has never looked or felt better, and she isn\u2019t afraid to let people know it.<\/p>\n

The 52-year-old Britain\u2019s Got Talent judge has clearly become more confident with age, regularly sharing sexy holiday snaps of herself on her socials \u2013 to the delight of some but the occasional disapproval of others. <\/p>\n

And now a source has told new that Amanda\u2019s learnt to rise above any criticism about her appearance or choice of outfits and has the full support of her husband and kids when she shows off her hard work and body confidence. <\/p>\n

\u201cShe\u2019s so empowered and confident, and a softie at heart,\u201d they told us. \u201cShe feels good about herself and wants to show off her body, and she\u2019ll stick the middle finger up to the trolls because she\u2019s such a headstrong and empowered woman. She\u2019ll never stop wearing raunchy outfits."<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Amanda is now reportedly one of the highest-paid women on UK TV and said to be earning close to \u00a31 million for her BGT work alone. With her high profile comes a much brighter spotlight and more unwarranted opinions, but Amanda has said she\u2019s reached a point in her life where she can just ignore them. <\/p>\n

\u201cYou reach an age where you care less because you have more of an insight on life, what\u2019s important and how crucial it is to keep pushing forward and living the way you want to live,\u201d she told a newspaper recently. <\/p>\n

Proving the point, she was back on telly this week with her new Sky History show, Sex: A Bonkers History, which put the star in the news once more. <\/p>\n

The series looks at the sometimes-bizarre sexual behaviours through the ages as Amanda and co-presenter Dan Jones \u201cshine a light on the most seductive sex stories that are sure to get your heart racing\u201d.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Amanda has acknowledged the irony of her being the one to front the sex-focused history show given the furore some of her racy looks have created in the past. <\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s crazy that when you think of the hoo-ha around some of my outfits now, we\u2019re still there,\u201d she said. \u201cIt\u2019s absolutely ridiculous that it\u2019s still going on in an era when we really think that we are ahead of the game.\u201d Refusing to be silenced by criticism, she had a clear message for the trolls, saying, \u201cIf they want to talk about my t**s then bring it on!\u201d<\/p>\n

While she disregards negative voices, Amanda makes sure her husband Chris Hughes and their two daughters Lexi, 17, and Hollie, 11, are happy with what she posts, our source claimed.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\u201cHer husband and kids are really supportive of her and what she does,\u201d they told us. \u201cThey\u2019re all proud of her so they\u2019re happy for her to be empowered, but of course they don\u2019t like seeing her get the negativity and seeing people making fun of her. It can sometimes be frustrating for her, but she won\u2019t let anyone stop her doing what she\u2019s doing because she\u2019s confident in who she is.\u201d <\/p>\n

Even Amanda\u2019s choice of outfits on BGT has put her in the trolls\u2019 firing line, with the telly regulator Ofcom getting hundreds of complaints from viewers objecting to some of her low-cut and figure-hugging looks.<\/p>\n

Her fellow judges were quick to stand up for her, with Bruno Tonioli saying, \u201cIf you got it, flaunt it and you girls [Amanda and Alesha Dixon] got it. I don\u2019t understand this complaining, what is the problem?\u201d <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Alesha also made it clear she wouldn\u2019t let other people\u2019s opinions change the way she and Amanda dress and added, \u201cI think at the end of the day, Amanda and I, we are tasteful with what we do. We want to come out looking sexy and feminine and beautiful at the same time.\u201d<\/p>\n

Rather than engaging with it, Amanda shields herself from other people\u2019s opinions by limiting the comments on her Instagram page \u2013 which has two million followers \u2013 meaning only people who follow her and that she follows back can comment on what she posts.<\/p>\n

Addressing the move, our source added, \u201cShe doesn\u2019t like to see the negativity she gets online and I think her having limited the comments on Instagram just proves that.\u201d <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Now in her early fifties, the star has grown in confidence and uses her socials to show off her hard work. Last week she launched her Amanda Holden X Lipsy clothing collection, a far cry from her wardrobe of a few decades ago.<\/p>\n

Modelling the range \u2013 which includes sequin Bardot dresses and halterneck glitter maxi gowns \u2013 she showed yet again that age or disapproving opinions won\u2019t hold her back. <\/p>\n

Amanda recently told a newspaper she was done with constantly worrying about what people think of her. \u201cBecause one day life is over, and all those opinions people have of you \u2013 bad or good \u2013 don\u2019t mean a thing,\u201d she said. <\/p>\n

You go, girl!<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
