What did Amanda Holden say?
Speaking on Sunday Brunch, the TV star said: “It was about 10 years ago now – [Simon’s] getting on.
“We stayed there all night, and in the morning when we got home the woman looking after our kids thought we’d got home, and had left.
“It was seven o’clock in the morning and we walked into the house and no-one was looking after our children. Can you imagine? She was fired, can I say.
“It was a great party, with a horrific ending.”
Amanda added that Lexi, now 14, was “fine”, “but that was the scariest thing ever.”
The presenter also shares daughter Holly, eight, with husband Chris.
