Amanda Holden, 53, praised for sharing 'unfiltered' bikini snaps from her ... trends now

Amanda Holden was praised for sharing seemingly unfiltered bikini snaps on Sunday - before deleting them from her social media.

The Britain's Got Talent judge, 53, has been keeping her followers up to date with her holiday in the Maldives and took to Instagram to share some pictures of herself wearing a navy blue bikini.

She could be seen pushing a bike along a pier while holding a drink in her other hand.

The TV star captioned her post: 'An aperol spritz a day... Happy Easter!'

However, Amanda appeared to swiftly delete the posts despite fans praising her for her 'lovely figure'.

One person wrote in the comments: 'Her figure actually looks a lot more normal on these photos - that's not a bad thing, she's got a lovely figure.

'But I think this is more 'real' than what we are normally shown!'

Someone else wrote: 'I agree. Evidently no filters or photo shopping on this one lol.'

While someone else posted: 'Looks far more normal here, better than the ridiculous pictures.' 

It was case of anything she can do I can do better on Monday as Amanda hit the beach during her latest family holiday. 

The star  showed off her ageless physique in a red bikini while unwinding during the tropical getaway, just hours after 18-year old daughter Lexi posed for her own impromptu swimwear shoot. 

Amanda, who appears to be in the Maldives, struck a series of poses as she paddled in the surf, beneath the shade of an overhanging palm tree. 

The TV personality later pulled on a sunhat and a pair of flip-flops while posing for a backshot before setting off on her bicycle.
