Amanda Holden is often gracing the red carpet will a killer look. But, on Thursday night, the starlet dazzled for an ultra-rare outing with her husband of over 16 years, Chris Hughes.
The couple headed to the affluent area of Notting Hill where they had dinner at Michelin star restaurant The Ledbury. Whilst they were there, the pair enjoyed an eight-course tasting menu at £275 a head.

Well, I met him in 2003, I can’t work it out,” she said. “Anyway, a long time, and our lives have been very separate for a long time because we’re both very busy.”

Adding: “We played for a good solid hour, we just knocked about a bit, we just played about. He won 21-15, but I thought that wasn’t bad for me.”

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.”
