Amanda Holden EXC: Star poses in a ruffled black dress from photoshoot for her new song

Amanda Holden posed for a photoshoot for her new track, With You, dedicated to her stillborn son Theo.

In images exclusively obtained by MailOnline, the Heart FM host, 49, stunned in a ruffled black dress as she took images in the woods to promote her album Songs From My Heart, set for release on Friday. 

The presenter shed light on the message behind her single, admitting her late child’s death in 2011 ‘changed her as a person’ and credited her husband Chris Hughes for ‘staying strong’ when she ‘fell apart’.

The media personality said: ‘The last lines of this song are ”You took my life with you, Took my world with you” and so this is for Theo, our baby who was born sleeping and for Chris who stayed strong when I fell apart. 

‘It was Chris who told me he always thought of Theo when he heard this song which floored me so it’s also his song for Theo. 

‘It’s very emotional to sing this song but I think you get chosen for experiences like that only if you are strong enough to deal with it. And it changes you as a person. It is also Simon Cowell’s favourite song.’

The mother-of-two was first inspired to record an album after she and her daughters Lexi, 14, and Hollie, eight, recorded a cover of The Greatest Showman hit Tightrope for her husband Chris Hughes to celebrate their 10th wedding anniversary. 

In July, Amanda spoke candidly about the devastating moment she learned there was no heartbeat when she was pregnant with her baby son.

Speaking on BBC’s Dear NHS Superstars special, the TV star explained she chose to have a C-section and initially thought she would not be able to hold her baby after he was born.

She said: ‘I kept saying, “I can’t hold a dead baby.” I was absolutely terrified. Just as baby was going to come out my husband Chris had to leave the room, he couldn’t bear it.

‘Jackie [her midwife] wrapped him up and I said, “Jackie, I can’t do it, I can’t hold him.” Jackie said, “he’s absolutely gorgeous, you need to see him.”

‘That’s when I held him even though he was fast asleep. The one thing I remember is his perfectly formed eyebrows, which all my children have.’

The new album comes as Amanda was embroiled in an Ofcom storm once again over her racy BGT outfit on Saturday sparked more than 200 complaints. 

During the fourth semi-final, Amanda wowed in a showstopping metallic navy gown, but at the time some fans questioned if she had suffered a wardrobe malfunction after they claimed to ‘see her nipples’.

According to a report from The Mirror on Monday, the regulator received 277 complaints about the programme, with the majority focusing on her ensemble which featured a plunging neckline.

One wrote on social media: ‘Is it me or Amanda’s nipples nearly hanging out of her top?’, while a second asked, ‘Are Amanda’s nipples on show?’

Another shared on Twitter, ‘Just me, or does Amanda’s dress make it look like her nipples are out?’, before adding: ‘To be clear… I’m not offended just commented on the obvious nipple shadow.’

Clearly shocked, one viewer wrote: ‘Is it me or can you see Amanda’s nipples?’ 

MailOnline has contacted Ofcom, as well as Amanda’s representatives and a Britain’s Got Talent spokesperson for comment. 

This is not the first time Amanda’s ensembles have caused a stir, as last year her raunchy ensembles sparked hundreds of complaints from viewers who thought they were too revealing for a family show.

Amanda made an impression in thigh-skimming gown by Ziad Nakad, showing off a liberal amount of leg thanks to the asymmetric hemline.

While the blonde beauty had also risked a wardrobe malfunction in a cut-out number by Jennifer Clair.

The stunning jewel hued frock featured a cut-out at the bust, threatening to expose her cleavage, as well as a high-high split running up her right leg.

She then dared to bare in the revealing, spider web number which attracted the Ofcom complaints.

While the next night she revealed her ample cleavage in a plunging, midnight blue gown, adorned with white floral detail and sequins. 

Despite the controversy over her looks, Amanda told You magazine at the time that she was delighted her remarkable figure still attracts attention: ‘I love it that people are still talking about my tired old breasts and I’m nearly 50!’

She added: ‘No one talks about [BGT co-host] Alesha Dixon’s – she’s got great boobs by the way – and she’s eight years younger than me.

‘Age is totally irrelevant, thanks to people like J-Lo, who is 49 and just a sexy, hot woman who dresses for how she feels.’

Meanwhile Diversity’s Black Lives Matter inspired performance during the show’s first semi-final attracted 24,500 complaints to Ofcom, who have since announced they will not investigate any further.

ITV has ‘stood with Diversity’ as they featured adverts in national newspapers in support of the controversial dance. 

ITV are believed to have spent around £260,000 on the newspaper ads with full-page monochrome pieces in The Metro costing £36,461 and £27,700 in The Mirror. 

Alesha was one of many who praised ITV for standing by the dance troupe. The singer took to Instagram to share a snap of the advert and gushed over how ‘proud’ she was with them. 

In her caption, she wrote: ‘Well done @ITV for standing with Diversity! Proud of you! This image is in all of the national newspapers today.’

Ashley Banjo also shared his gratitude with ITV for standing by Diversity over their Black Lives Matter-inspired performance. 

The poster showed a poignant black and white image of Ashley taking the knee alongside the words: ‘We are changed by what we see. Just as we are changed when we are seen. ITV stand with Diversity.’

Sharing a snap of the same advert, which shows him kneeling in black-and-white, he wrote: ‘This is what change looks like.

‘@ITV stand with @Diversity and we’ve never been prouder. This is in all the national papers today. Thank you again to everyone that has supported us.’ 

On Saturday, Amanda shared a snap of her ensemble on Instagram and captioned the image: ‘BGT tonight 8pm @itv! So excited for a show full of incredible acts + we get to see a theatre show (finally!) with a performance from the cast of Hairspray.’ 

She wore her golden locks in bouncy glamorous curls and and opted for full coat of make-up in neutral tones. 

Amanda’s pals gushed over the stunning look, as Mollie King wrote: ‘Wow looking gorgeous!’ and Helen Flanagan left heart emojis underneath.
