Amanda Holden holds no bars when it comes to her stint as a celebrity judge on Britain’s Got Talent, but away from the spotlight, the radio presenter is a doting mum to two young daughters and a wife to record producer Chris Hughes.
Here at HELLO!, we have rounded up everything you need to know about the actress’ love life and marriages – to husband Chris and, previously, Family Fortunes host Les Dennis.
Who is Chris Hughes?
Chris is a record producer and met his beautiful wife in Los Angeles in 2003. The couple now live in Surrey in an extravagant £5million mansion which they recently put on the market.
Although the pair met in 2003, they didn’t start dating until a year later. The lovebirds then tied the knot in 2008, with their nearly two-year-old daughter Lexi in attendance.
Speaking to HELLO! about her marriage in 2019, Amanda revealed: “Chris is very funny and errs on the side of lightness. We can make jokes out of any situation throughout the best and darkest times of our lives. He’s rubbish at romance, but he’s there for the solid things – such as keeping my car clean and making sure I relax.”

She added: “He’s a proper bloke who looks after me. I’m a strong, opinionated woman, but he helps steer the Mandy ship.”
How long have Amanda and Chris been married?
The pair tied the knot on 10 December 2008 at St Margaret’s Church in Somerset. The stunning Christmas-themed nuptials featured lashings of fake snow and exquisite ivy trimmings.
The festive celebration was followed by an ultra-exclusive wedding reception at private member’s club Babington House which is part of the Soho House group.
Their A-List guest list included the likes of Fantastic Beasts star, Eddie Redmayne and Gavin and Stacey creator, James Corden. Former Formula One driver, David Coulthard, was Chris’ best man.

Do Amanda and Chris have any children?
The husband-and-wife duo share two beautiful daughters Lexi, 17, and Hollie, 11. Eldest daughter Lexi watched her adoring parents say ‘I do’, as she was just two years old at the time. So sweet!
While Amanda likes to keep her daughters mostly out of the public eye, the sister duo can sometimes be seen posing alongside the TV judge on her social media accounts – and it’s safe to say they could be triplets!
However, Amanda and Chris have experienced their share of family heartache, too. Amanda suffered a miscarriage in 2010; in 2011, the TV presenter and Chris had a son, Theo, who was stillborn 28 weeks into Amanda’s pregnancy back in February 2011.
What is Chris Hughes’ net worth?
Chris’ estimated net worth is £4.5million according to The Sun.

How many times has Amanda been married?

Before her marriage to Chris, Amanda was married to famed TV presenter, Les Dennis, 69. The former couple tied the knot in 1995 in a wedding exclusively covered by HELLO!.
All about Amanda’s relationship with Les Dennis
Amanda and Dennis had an on off relationship before ultimately divorcing. The two split up briefly in 2000 after Amanda had an affair with Men Behaving Badly actor Neil Morrissey, but in 2001 they seemed to be determined to give things a second chance. A year later, the pair confirmed the end of their seven-year marriage.

In 2013, Amanda opened up about her affair with Neil, telling Good Housekeeping: “I don’t believe women have affairs for no reason.”
She added: “Neil rightly or wrongly got loads of stick. I feel like it was my fault – I was the one who was married. I want to change the general perception of him, as he was very caring and very loving and very worried about me because I lost so much weight. He used to cook for me and look after me and babysit the dogs.”
