It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas... for Amanda Holden at least.

The seven-months pregnant Britain's Got Talent judge showed off her growing baby bump in a trendy Christmas jumper today.

Amanda, 40, tweeted a picture of her and Phillip Schofield ahead of the annual Sun Military Awards ceremony tonight.

How did that happen? After complaining her felt 'dull' in comparison to Amanda, Phillip then found himself in the jumper

The pair are both hosting the event at the Imperial War Museum in London.

When Phillip, 49, spotted Amanda's icicle-patterned jumper from Markus Lupfer, he took to Twitter to express his envy.

'Damn! Wish I'd worn a novelty Crimbo jumper like @Amanda_Holden ! Feel a bit dull in comparison :),' he wrote.

But it seemed he had spoken - or rather tweeted - too soon as moments later the This Morning presenter tweeted a picture of himself in the jumper.

'Hmmmm, not sure this works!!' he wrote before adding: 'Well this hasn't worked at all!

'Amanda has left the stage in my jumper & I'm standing here feeling a little awkward in her girly novelty one.'

And finally the shame... Phillip is left holding the jumper. Let's hope he gets his back before the country's military descend

Meanwhile Amanda had tweeted: 'Christmas is about sharing!' before revealing she was also after a reindeer jumper from Top Shop.

It would certainly be a lot cheaper than her Lupfer one which retails for around £200.

Amanda, who is expecting a daughter with record producer husband Chris Hughes, was treated to a surprise baby shower last week in London.

The military awards, now in its fourth year, will be broadcast on ITV tomorrow.

The lavish star-studded event pays tribute to the phenomenal contribution made by members of the UK’s armed forces over the course of 2011.
