The morning was filled with excitement and laughter for Ed Balls as he joined co-host Susanna Reid in interviewing Amanda Holden on Good Morning Britain. The 57-year-old presenter was left a little flustered when the conversation took a hilarious turn towards Amanda's upcoming charity cycle.
Amanda, who is also known for her role as a judge on Britain's Got Talent, is taking on the challenge of riding from Cornwall to London to raise money for Global's Make Some Noise. With just one week to prepare for the 250-mile journey, Amanda shared that she has been using "bum butter" to help her with the ride.
Amidst the laughter, Ed advised Amanda to apply the product often and thickly, to which she responded by saying she'll think of him when she slaps it on her bottom. As Susanna couldn't hold back her giggles, a red-faced Ed jokingly suggested that Amanda might need to move on from the topic.
Amanda admitted that she's feeling nervous about the ride but is "fired up and ready to go." She also shared that she had "bulked up" on scones for breakfast, with Ed playfully asking whether she prefers jam or cream first. Amanda couldn't help but make a cheeky comment about putting butter in a certain place, but quickly backtracked, considering it was early morning television.
As the conversation continued, Amanda explained how the bum butter would be helping her during the ride, jokingly saying that she's "lubed up." This left Ed quite flustered, and Amanda couldn't help but laugh at his reaction.
Aside from the bum butter, Amanda also shared that she's had a pedicure to prepare her feet for the journey, and at the end of each day, she plans to soak them in a bucket of iced water while sipping on a mojito. She also joked that she'll be wearing fake lashes the entire five-day ride as a test to see which ones will stay on and which brand of bum butter works best.
Amanda also shared that she's doing the cycling challenge not just for charity, but also for weight loss. She playfully mentioned that she hopes to come back looking as ripped as Davina McCall. She also joked that she might need to take cod liver oil halfway through the ride to keep her joints oiled up.
