The current series of Britain’s Got Talent isn’t even over yet, but Amanda Holden has already got her eye on her future in the show.

The 2016 series, which marks the 10th anniversary of Simon Cowell’s talent search competition, is about to gear up for the live semi-finals.

But before they’ve even begun, Holden has said that she’ll be back for the next series – along with fellow judge Alesha Dixon.

Speaking on Up Late With Rylan, Holden said: “He [Simon] did put on his Twitter that he loves me and Alesha so much that he would like us back next year... we’ll be back!”

While the line-up on the X Factor is currently in flux, it seems Cowell is happy with the Britain’s Got Talent judges.

Speaking to Closer magazine, Simon Cowell said: “I hate to admit it, but David is very welcome back next year. The whole panel is!

“We all like being on the show, and that's what's most important. They are about as good as we're ever going to get.”
