Holden spilled the beans when she appeared on Lorraine with fellow Britain’s Got Talent judges Simon Cowell, David Walliams and Alesha Dixon.

Holden landed her record deal in July, after sharing a video that showed her singing the song Tightrope from the film The Greatest Showman.

She had recorded her rendition of the track as an anniversary gift for her husband Chris Hughes.
