Amanda Holden put on a brave face as she left Global studios, having become upset on air talking about her son's death on Wednesday.

The presenter, 50, looked chic as she left her Heart FM morning radio show, during which she broke down in years while honoring the nurses who cared for her when her son Theo was stillborn. 

Marking Nurses Day 2021, she reflected on what it was like to lose her child, who tragically died in the womb.

As co-host Jamie Theakston listened on, visably upset too, Amanda said: 'I personally would love to thank the nurses.

'I know I talk about this a lot. And I never know whether I talk too much about it. But obviously, when we lost our son Theo to a still birth the hospital where I was looked after was unbelievable. 

'Jacki Nash got me through so much, Pippa Nightingale and Natalie Carter.

'And when I came out of a coma there was a nurse - who I never knew the name of - who brushed my tangled, matted hair from spending so much time lying down - who fed me, washed me and put me in a dressing gown so that when my family came to see me they wouldn't be scared of me looking like Stig Of The Dump.

'So whoever that was iI don't know who u are I will be forever grateful.'

Amanda was seen leaving the studios after the broadcast, putting on a brave face.

She wore a smart petrol blue shirt with a statement white collar over white flared slacks.

She added a pinstriped blazer to the look and carried a cream clutch.

Amanda's make-up looked flawless as ever, but covered her eyes with shades and wore her blonde locks around her features as she headed home. 

Amanda is married to her husband Chris Hughes, whom she shares daughters Lexi, 15, and Hollie, nine, with.

They lost Theo in 2011, however, when the family went through the devastating stillbirth.

Amanda had noticed Theo had stopped moving inside her when she was seven months pregnant with him and had a caesarean at West Minister University Hospital.

She has always championed the healthcare professionals who helped her through the tragedy, which she regards as her lowest point in life.
