Amanda Holden shares ‘Beverly Hills Hotel’ house update as she unveils ‘frocks and sleepovers’ room – one year after moving into £7million abode
Amanda Holden has shared an update on the renovation of her ‘Beverley Hills Hotel’ abode a year after moving in.
The presenter, 53, took to Instagram on Wednesday to unveil her new ‘frocks and sleepovers’ room as she transforms her £7million Surrey abode.
The clips begins with Amanda welcoming fans into the room as she takes them over to her new wardrobe dedicated to her array of glamorous dresses.
Making sure not to waste space, Amanda revealed that the room used to be a guest bedroom but she switched things up as she needed more storage for all of her dresses – and her huge hat collection.
And with her youngest Holly almost a teenager, a sleepover room was also priority, so the Britain’s Got Talent judge opted for a stunning pink striped space-saving Dunelm sofa bed.
In her tour of the room, her two adorable pups could be seen relaxing with her on the new sofa bed as they settled in.

The room has also been padded out with a selection of beautiful lamps from Tinker & Tallulah, a doll’s house and a giant teddy bear.
She captioned the clip: ‘Thanks @hammonds_uk for turning this room into a space to store more of my frocks!!!
‘It was a bedroom but now we’ve popped the dolly’s house in there and a Teddy as #hrh is only a day away from becoming a teenager. This room is now not wasted but a perfect space for storage and sleepovers.’
Amanda moved from south London with her music producer husband Chris Hughes and their two daughters Lexi, 18, and Hollie, 12, last November.
In November, Amanda shared how she had renovated the ‘very pale, white and grey’ property, injecting it with colour and personality to make it her ‘forever home’.
‘What a difference a year makes. Moved in a year ago today….and nearly finished the whole house… what to do next!!! I love a project. More makeovers coming ….,’ the Heart Radio presenter wrote.
Amanda, who originally thought the revamp would take several years, has completely transformed the space in the past 12 months.
The white-wash hallway now has a black and white diamond floor and peach walls after Amanda took inspiration from RuPaul.
It has a grand piano and a huge Christmas tree with garland travelling down the staircase which she has decorated with photos of her family and friends.

Amanda has been a huge hit with BBC viewers thanks to her eye for interior design with her show Amanda And Alan’s Italian Job (pictured in December last year)
The dining room, originally a shade of green, has been transformed into a glamorous jungle with leopard-themed wallpaper and high ceilings adorned by sparkling chandeliers – a perfect space to host parties.
The open plan kitchen has a huge media wall, painted green, with a bright orange L-shaped sofa.
The grey living room has had a huge uplift with its herringbone flooring, plush cushions and racy artwork adorning the walls.
Not content with a bar cart by the sofa, Amanda renovated another room to make it a party area where guests can hit the bar or relax in one of the comfy armchairs by the bookshelf.
Amanda’s pals took to the comment section to commend her on the renovation.

Amanda created her own ‘Beverly Hills Hotel’ after transforming her new Surrey mansion into a ‘forever home’ – with palm trees, chandeliers and leopard-themed wallpaper
The star shared photos of her new home before she decorated, explaining that while the property was fine beforehand, she wanted to put her magic touch on the design
The interior design guru admits she has longed for the property her entire life and worked hard to achieve her vision, remodelling the house from ‘pale’ and ‘grey’ to a one-of-a-kind abode
The best friends have renovated dilapidated properties into stunning spaces.
The television personality spoke about to MailOnline about her home back in April.
‘This is my dream home. My entire life I have wanted the dream home, and you know you do the stepping up and now I’ve finally got it,’ she said.
‘I definitely feel settled… I’m obsessed with interior design and I said to my husband, ‘Don’t worry, this is the house for life and it will take me a couple of years to do it up’ but I think the whole house will be done by June and we only moved in November so I’m already looking for another project… he’ll go mental!
‘It was the perfect house, and most people would have probably moved in and kept it the same, but it was a very pale, white and grey house and it’s not like that anymore.
‘I am turning it into the Beverly Hills Hotel, that’s my aim. I have just planted two palm trees in the garden, which makes me feel so happy.’
While the Heart Breakfast presenter quickly turned her house into a home, she did have her reservations before buying the seven-million-pound property.
She even doubted it was the right time to buy given stamp duty rates, high mortgage prices and soaring inflation costs but now she feels the risk was worth the reward.
Amanda said: ‘We moved in November, just before Christmas. It was the worst possible time to buy and sell a house, which is awful and there’s stamp duty and you ask yourself, ‘What am I doing?’ But it was worth it in the end.’
Amanda’s pals took to the comment section to commend her on the renovation. Myleene Klass wrote: ‘You should be so proud of yourself. What an absolute grafter you are’
‘I love RuPaul so much, if you Google RuPaul’s entrance hall, I’ve done it exactly like that, I have peachy coloured walls. I have gone for diamond printed black and white flooring’, she said

The TV star particularly loves her daughter Hollie’s bedroom, which is wallpapered in jungle green print and includes a four-poster bed styled with powder pink and white striped pillows
The Britain’s Got Talent judge moved from south London to Surrey with her music producer husband Chris Hughes and their daughters Lexi and Hollie in November
The TV star particularly loves her daughter Hollie’s bedroom, which is wallpapered in jungle green print and includes a four-poster bed styled with powder pink and white striped pillows.
She added: ‘I love my youngest daughter’s bedroom because it’s so like the Beverly Hills Hotel.
‘I recently ripped up the flooring in our hallway too, we had a perfectly decent hallway, but I’ve had the whole floor changed…
‘I love RuPaul so much, if you Google RuPaul’s entrance hall, I’ve done it exactly like that, I have peachy coloured walls. I have gone for diamond printed black and white flooring.’
Transforming her house into her very own ‘Beverly Hills Hotel’, famed for its luxury, and A-list guests, is a reflection of Amanda’s longstanding Showbiz career, from acting to singing and starring on Britain’s Got Talent for the past 18 years.
And she says the mansion has become a place where she can host talent boss Simon Cowell and his partner Lauren Silverman, further cementing their close friendship.
She said: ‘Simon and Lauren and me and my husband Chris have grown a lot closer in the sense that we would always have dinners out but now we’re in each other’s homes at the weekend, which makes for a totally different vibe than when we’re on the panel.
‘Simon does feel more like family than he ever has done. It feels very comfortable and very lovely… Our children are so close, Holly and Eric are two mischievous elves who constantly see each other at weekends and get up to no good on set, along with Alesha Dixon’s daughter as well.’
