Good Morning Britain host Richard Madeley has accused Amanda Holden of faking her terror during creepy act The Haunting on Britain’s Got Talent.
The GMB presenter said he reckoned Amanda was putting on an act for the live show last night, which saw her drop an F-bomb live on air.
After watching the dramatic footage of the 48-year-old’s screams, Richard wasn’t convinced and said: “Surely she was acting?”
The 63-year-old host went on: “Do you think she was acting? She couldn’t have been frightened by that she knew what was coming.”
Amanda appeared to not know what was going on as she was led down to the basement of the BGT theatre and made to take part in the live act with contestant Elizabeth.
The BGT judge shrieked with terror as she was told she was haunted by the ghost of an old woman called Agatha and her 11-year-old daughter, who both appeared in front of Amanda during the act.
But some fans claimed they also heard head judge Simon Cowell telling Amanda not to ‘over-act’ before she took part in creepy Elizabeth’s stunt.
So Simon Cowell just told Amanda to stop overacting…. kind of killed the act before it even started #BGT
