Amanda Holden feared Simon Cowell was going to die after his recent accident.

She shared: "It was gut-wrenching. I got a text in the night. I couldn\'t sleep after. I felt physically sick as I didn\'t know how bad it was.

Amanda is doing her best to support Simon, and she\'s also been in touch with his girlfriend Lauren Silverman.

The \'Britain\'s Got Talent\' star told The Sun on Sunday newspaper: "I sent him some Lego, cashmere socks and books and butterscotch Angel Delight, his favourite.
