Amanda Holden shared how her new co-star, relationship expert Paul C Brunson, helped with her own love life during filming for their new Netflix show, Cheat: Unfinished Business
Amanda Holden said her new gig as the host of a dating show offered unexpected benefits to her own marriage.
While working on Cheat: Unfinished Business, alongside love guru Paul C Brunson, the 54-year-old presenter confessed to making notes and putting them into practice with her husband Chris Hughes.
The Britain's Got Talent judge told Closer Magazine: "He gives out amazing advice that I literally made notes on throughout filming.
"I was really nice to my husband Chris across the summer when we were making the show!"
Not long ago, Amanda revealed that despite being happily married, she and Chris had been leading "separate lives" due to their hectic work schedules.
She told Heart Radio listeners: "I've been married for over 20 years. Well, I met him in 2003, I can't work it out.
"Anyway, a long time, and our lives have been very separate for a long time because we're both very busy. Obviously, we're very happily married, but we do lots of things separately.
"I love my Peloton and running, he goes and plays squash. He's got a massive career as well.
"We're always separate, you know." According to an insider, Amanda and her spouse have since been working on getting their busy schedules to align.
They told the magazine: "Amanda realises that something's got to give but it's not quite that simple. She knows she needs to prioritise her husband – who knows how she would cope without him.
"They've talked about trying a getaway to spend real down time together – alone. The kids are old enough to hold the fort.
"Amanda knows she needs to consider this. Until now it's always been as a family so going on holiday alone would be alien to her.
"But it's a great place to start, even if it's a long weekend."
No stranger to discussing her marriage on air, Amanda also recently joked about her husband giving her the ick.
She said: "My ick with Chris, although that does sound quite dramatic, is when Chris is dressed casually.
"My husband looks really nice when he goes out but his relaxed look, the thing I would burn without any hesitation, but I think it would pollute the air, is that he owns yellow Crocs."
