Amanda Holden has revealed that her love life has seen a boost since lockdown started as she isolates at home with her hunky husband Chris, and their two daughters Holly and Alexa.

Amanda has been giving fans plenty of updates on her glamorous home life during quarantine with sizzling bikini snaps and videos of her family clapping for our carers on Thursday evenings (and don’t forget taking the bins out in ballgowns).

But now she’s given a more intimate insight into how she’s coping, and credits staying at home with whipping her marriage into tip top shape.

“This whole thing has been great for my marriage,” she said. “I know people are talking about it causing spikes in baby-making and divorce rates, but for us it has been brilliant.

“I’m too old for more babies but our relationship is stronger than ever. It’s all about the lockdown loving."

In a swiftly deleted post, Amanda wrote, "The current mortality rate for the Corona virus is 2% which is roughly equivalent to a common flu virus.

“The 24 hr incessant mainstream media has a lot to answer for creating such hysteria. Wash your hands regularly and avoid touching your nose eyes and ears.”

But lots of fans called her out, with one writing, “You are not a scientist or a doctor, equating this to the common flu is beyond irresponsible,” and another commenting, “Really shouldn’t be tweeting this without research."
