Amanda Holden’s daughter Lexi, 18, is a mini-me of her famous mum as she poses in teal bikini on Maldives holiday

AMANDA Holden's daughter Lexi Hughes looks the double of her mum in a bikini incredibly similar to one the BGT judge has sported.

18 year-old Lexi shared a snap of her posing in a teal two-piece on the family's recent holiday to the Maldives.

And her swimwear of choice is a identikit version of a bikini her mum, 53, slipped into while on a sunsoaked trip to Sicily in Summer 2022.

In her picture, posted on her instagram, model Lexi was seen lying down on some steps while taking in some rays next to the clear blue ocean.

She captioned the snap: ";Working hard or hardly working?"

The photo dump also showed Lexi changing into a different, darker-coloured bikini while she pushed a bike on the sands as she walked away from the camera.

Lexi's striking looks saw her sign to Storm Model agency in 2022 - the same agency that helped make legendary British fashion model Kate Moss a star.

But she is not putting all her eggs into the catwalk.

The switched-on lass is also looking into attending University in America after finishing her A-Levels.

Amanda said at the time: "Lexi was approached last year [by her model agency] and obviously we were waiting until she was 16 to sign anything. 

"It's something she actually wants to do, so I'm taking the lead from her. She's a very quiet girl but she knows her own mind. She's very bright and wants to continue her studies."

Amanda, who is also mum to Hollie, 11, with husband Chris Hughes, recently became emotional talking about Lexi flying the next soon.

In an episode of Amanda and Alan's Italian Job, which aired on BBC One last month, she spoke of her fears of letting her eldest go.

"When your children, when they leave home, you only spend a year of your life with them ever again. They say you have 18 summers and then you're lucky to see them," she said.

Amanda then sobbed as she added: "It's so terrible because you wish so much of it away when you're a busy parent... and then you turn around and they're not even there."

The Heart FM presenter has certainly been making the most of her two girls still being at home though as she enjoyed her family holiday in the Maldives.

 "We had a lovely family holiday @luxsouthari staff just lovely and food was beyond…" she wrote as she shared a photo dump on instagram.

Amongst some mouthwatering snaps of delicious food and golden beaches, Amanda also treated her fans to plenty of snaps in her bikinis.

This included a £120 bright orange bikini as she posed on a swing above the waters.

The presenter will soon have to return to British climes though as she is due back on the radio on Monday morning.
