Amanda Holden will miss Britain's Got Talent auditions in Blackpool today (January 24) after admitting herself to hospital yesterday.
The judge, who is due to give birth to a baby girl, rejoined the panel last week as auditions kicked off in Manchester.
However, the 40-year-old will not appear alongside Simon Cowell, David Walliams and Alesha Dixon today as she remains under observation in a London hospital.
Holden recently joked that she would make Cowell her new daughter's godfather, saying: "He could set up a trust fund with stacks of money in it because it's a girl - so she'll need shoes."
The former Shrek: The Musical star and husband Chris Hughes suffered a stillbirth last year. Recalling the discovery of her current pregnancy, Holden said that she had "burst into tears".
A Britain's Got Talent spokesperson confirmed that auditions would continue with the three remaining judges.
