The 48-year-old TV presenter has reportedly been handed a £1 million contract by Virgin, having been the subject of a bidding war that also featured the likes of Warner, Sony and Universal.

A source told The Sun on Sunday newspaper: "Amanda only signed the deal a matter of weeks ago but she is very excited and can't wait to get going."

Interest in Amanda's singing talents peaked after she posted online a version of 'Tightrope' from the hit film 'The Greatest Showman'.

She performed the song to celebrate her tenth wedding anniversary with husband Chris Hughes.

Meanwhile, Amanda recently admitted she lost her virginity at 16 because she wanted to "get it out of the way".

The blonde beauty revealed she lost her virginity in her teens, but she was still the last of her friends to have sex.

Amanda - who was married to fellow TV star Les Dennis from 1995 until 2003 - recalled: "I was 16.

"I remember after going to the Crown Inn and telling all my friends as I was the last one."

She added, jokingly: "I never did it again! I kind of wanted to get it out of the way."
