Amanda
Holden sacked her closest aide in a fit of fury after a picture of her
nine-year-old daughter apparently dressed as the prostitute from Pretty
Woman emerged online, it was claimed today.
The
Britain's Got Talent star was allegedly terrified that the photograph -
which the 44-year-old wanted erased from the internet - would damage
her career and blamed her adviser of 20 years.
A
picture of Lexi in a strapless red dress was posted on her official
Twitter account on February 13 with the caption: '1990's day at Lexi's
school today. Julia Roberts "Pretty Woman".'
Ms
Holden then blamed her husband Chris Hughes for the publishing the
picture and denied the schoolgirl was dressing as fictional prostitute
Vivian.

Holden sacked an aide after a picture of her eldest daughter Lexi with
the caption: '1990's day at Lexi's school today. Julia Roberts "Pretty

Ms
Holden was apparently worried about what the picture might do for her
career because she will be leaving Britain's Got Talent and is looking
for new opportunities.
She
reportedly blamed her aide of 20 years for her handling of the
situation after the photograph was published, and is now being
represented by One Direction's team.
A
source told The Sun: 'As far as Amanda is concerned, this slip-up came
at exactly the wrong time and she is really worried it will affect her
career.
'When
Amanda realised how bad the fall-out was, she was absolutely furious
and since then, she and her aide — who she has been with for years —
have not been working together.
'She blamed her for not handling the situation properly'.
When the picture was released Ms Holden threatened media outlets with legal action in an attempt to erase it from the internet.
Her aide reportedly infuriated her by referring her to her lawyer who said: 'Once the photo was out there, it was out'.
Outrage: Amanda

nine-year-old daughter Lexi apparently dressed up as fictional
prostitute from Pretty Woman for a school fancy dress day
