Amanda Holden pays tribute to baby son 14 years after his heartbreaking death

AMANDA Holden has shared a sweet tribute to her son Theo, who would have been 14 years old.

Britain's Got Talent judge Amanda took to her Instagram to share the touching message for her son, who was stillborn at 28 weeks in 2011.

The TV and radio presenter took to her Instagram Stories to share a photograph of a burning candle in tribute to her son, as she wrote: "Our beautiful boy would have been 14 today." 

Last year Amanda marked the day as she told followers how her son would have been turning into a teenager.

Amanda pays tribute to her son in various ways on the date each year alongside husband Chris.

The pair welcomed their first child Alexa, 18, into the world in 2006, followed by Hollie, 12, in 2012.

Amanda has previously recalled the heartbreaking last moments with her son.

She recalled: "He looked so normal and so peaceful. I held him in my arms and I said goodbye, basically.

"But I couldn’t have done it without the incredible team around us. My husband was so strong and so amazing but they got him through it too.

"And then the days and months afterwards, the same team of people checked on us every single day and it’s not because I’m off the telly or famous or anything like that.

"I believe they’d have extended that care to any woman, any family, in my situation."

Amanda has said that Theo will always be part of the family.

She added: "I’ll literally do anything for the National Health Service because they got me through it, they got Chris through it and I now thankfully have two healthy girls and a little boy who is still part of the family but just not here."

She's also spoken about the impact the loss had on her and her husband Chris, who she married in 2018.

She revealed the sad loss left the pair of them "frightened" of having another child.

She told us: "It was horrific in the months after Theo.

"My husband was frightened of having another child, he never wanted to see me go through that pain again — and himself.

"But I knew in order to carry on and live life, I had to have a baby and I was lucky enough to have the choice and be able to have another one."
