As Amanda was filmed crossing her legs before she sat on a chair, she joked that she "didn't want to do a 'Basic Instinct' there!" She penned a light-hearted caption to go with the video, quipping: "Morning. Wearing jumper from @huntandhall, skirt @karen_mille, boots @hollandcooperclothing #underwear models own."

This playful pun refers to the moment that Hollywood actress Sharon Stone took part in a provocative leg-crossing scene in the 1992 film Basic Instinct. Her character, Catherine Tramell, famously wears a tight white mini-dress and uncrosses her legs in a risque moment. Amanda kept her rendition strictly PG!

Amanda's style confessions

Amanda, who has been married to husband Chris Hughes for 17 years, has always enjoyed putting outfits together, and fashion is often at the forefront of her mind. "While I've still got the figure, I do love a bodycon dress, a good, well-made pair of jeans with a T-shirt, and a blazer and a nice heel," she previously told the MailOnline.

"I enjoy wearing clothes that show off my figure. I dress for myself and wear what makes me feel good," she added. "I find it quite weird that people didn't start asking me where I got my clothes from until my 40s or 50s - which I'm really enjoying," she mused.
