Holden has amazing skin, and she makes sure to take care of it. She tells Express that her biggest skincare secret is changing things up. “I think with my skincare regime I try and change it every six months,” she says. So I'm using Barbara Stern at the moment, because she's just incredible. But I often change that to LMS or SkinCeuticals - it's sort of every three to six months I'll change because your skin does get used to products and I think all of those products need to change up every now and then.”

2. She Runs

Holden admits to Express that she isn’t always a fan of working out. However, she says that she likes to run to stay in shape. “I go running,” she says. “I've recently got a personal trainer in because I just think maybe I can tone up a bit to the summer. It's not something I like doing. I'm not a fan of the gym.But I'm doing it because I think it's important. I think I'll just do it before the summer that it'll all go to pot while I'm in Greece drinking rose eating spanakopita!”

I don’t diet.” But she does watch what she eats. “I’m a vegetarian, so for me it’s lots of avocado, chickpeas and quinoa salads,” she said.

Holden goes to a fitness camp in Portugal, where she hikes and does boxing for a few weeks before every TV shoot. But her regular workout routine is a bit more casual. “You can’t live like that all the time,” she told the Daily Mail. “I practice a form of yoga, which is more to do with breath control and strength than getting sweaty, and I run every morning, but I love a glass of wine and going out.”

3. She Dances

Holden posted a TikTok video of herself dancing with her two daughters — Lexi, 16, and Hollie, 10 — on vacation in Italy, where she’s shooting her TV show. Dance builds muscle and bone, reduces fat, increases aerobic capacity, lowers blood pressure and improves the ratio of good to bad cholesterol, according to the Harvard Medical School.

4. She Stays Hydrated

“I drink loads of water — a lot of coconut water,” Holden said.

Chan School of Public Health.

5. She Cheats Occasionally

“I do eat healthily but I have treats and I do love — I know I sound like an alcoholic — my glass of wine or gin,” Holden said. “Life is too short to be strict.” “When it comes to healthy eating, the key to following the rules may be in breaking them,” Northwestern Medicine said. Just don’t think of them as cheating but rather as a meal that you earned and should enjoy – without the guilt, the university said.

Holden tells Hello! Magazine that her grandmother was very influential on her current diet. "My grandmother would say, 'a little bit of everything does you good',” she says. Holden says that she eats a balanced diet, and indulges herself once in a while. “Enjoy the taste of a nice full Brie and a fatty old salty butter with massive lumps of sea salt in it. But just don't have it on everything every meal, put a bit on your jacket potato and then that's it for the day. So it's just enjoying those little treats."

2. She’s A Vegetarian

Holden has been a vegetarian since she was 13, and she has even posed nude for PETA. Holden says to PETA that being a vegetarian has a lot of benefits. “My skin’s always good. I never feel bloated. There are so many benefits.” Holden says that she finds being vegetarian easy. “​​To anybody that thinks being a vegetarian is tricky – it’s rubbish! There are so many products you can buy – meat substitute products if that’s what you want. Vegetables, lentils, pulses – there are a million things that you can cook and use to substitute for meat.”

Amanda keeps her body fueled with liquids. “‘I drink loads of water — a lot of coconut water,” she told The Daily Mail. "About 50-75% of your weight is water! Getting enough fluid in your diet is important for everything in your body to work well and be healthy, including your heart, digestion, brain, muscles and skin. Fluids deliver nutrients to your cells, maintain a balance of nutrients, and remove wastes from your body. Good hydration supports normal energy levels, decreases risk of kidney stones, prevents constipation, and is associated with a reduction in urinary tract infections, high blood pressure, fatal heart disease and stroke," says the Cleveland Clinic.

4. She Lives by Moderation

Everything in moderation is the mantra Amanda lives by. “You have to enjoy life. I eat everything. Drink everything. I had a friend once who didn’t make it to her 50s and her biggest regret was she spent her life on a diet. I don’t diet,” she told The Daily Mail.

5. These Are Her Sweat Methods

I like to run for an hour a week, as I feel great afterwards. It's also time to myself, which is worth its weight in gold,” she told The Sun.
