Amanda Holden resorted to desperate measures to get her teenage daughter's attention at the weekend. The Heart FM star teamed up with her youngest daughter Hollie as they attempted to distract 14-year-old Lexi from her phone. Amanda shared a TikTok video on her Instagram account, which shows Lexi laying on the grass in the sunshine, totally absorbed in her mobile. Hollie, eight, then appears on the screen, dressed up in a princess outfit as she dances past her big sister. Amanda follows closely behind, wearing a black dress and a matching hat, and scooting along on a white horse. Lexi is momentarily distracted by her mum, who waves as she passes by, but immediately returns to her screen. "When you still can't get your teenage daughter's attention," Amanda, 49, captioned the post.
