Amanda Holden escaped the rat-race and the ongoing pandemic for a solo trip to Corfu, Greece this summer.
When travel restrictions eased up, the Britain's Got Talent judge, 50, was sure to escape for some alone time at the end of August, where she was sure to spend time 'with me and absolutely no-one else for the first time in years and years'.
She jetted off to the lavish Domes Miramare adults-only retreat on the Greek isle, leaving her husband and daughters at home, to enjoy the resort favoured in the past by the likes of Aristotle Onassis and Jackie O.

Tranquility: She jetted off to the lavish Domes Miramare adults-only retreat on the Greek isle
Fans of the hotel still call it the 'Onassis hotel in Corfu', thanks to its past guests, with Aristotle's villa located on the site in 1962.
The hotel is a historic structure, acquired by the luxury Domes group, and transferred into the 21st century, injecting a pearl-tinted modernity to its eloquent, established charm.
Amanda explained at the time of her trip that she was switching off to 'do nothing', and that she was even feeling apprehensive about it.
'I’m a mummy, a daughter and a wife first and foremost… the next few days I get to spend on my own... just to be me!' she told her Instagram followers. 'I mean... I am always me... but I haven’t had time with me and absolutely no-one else for years and years.

Charming: The main hotel is set on a lengthy beach, lined with sunbeds and dotted with the odd majestic palm tree
Stunning: The quiet resort is situated on the lower-eastern coast of the island, not too close to the tourist spots
'I am scared but looking forward to... doing nothing... to wake up and only think of... well... nobody but maybe me… to read... to swim… to count my freckles...
'I also know I’m lucky it’s only temporary… and after this last year I am looking forward to just having a think… before resuming normal service.'
The quiet resort is the perfect space to do just that: situated on the lower-eastern coast of the island, not too close to the tourist spots, Domes Miramare is tucked away behind a wall, like an oversized home in the Hollywood Hills.
Guests can either stay in one of the emerald rooms, which range from around €252 per night upwards, and offer the likes of king beds, marbled bathrooms with walk-in showers, a patio and a view of the garden, pool or seafront.
