'An eclipse overhead, all of us staring up at the sky… and then one of those life moments I’ll never forget — I was asked to become a Godmother to River Lily.
'A pretty magical day in the universe, and an even more magical one in mine. Safe to say, I’ll remember 12.08.26 forever.'
While Amanda has now returned home, she had been spending the summer in Corfu with her family and friends.
Earlier this week she looked incredible as she showed off her age-defying physique in a white and blue floral bikini.
The Britain's Got Talent judge took to Instagram on Wednesday to upload the last of her sizzling swimwear snaps.
Amanda showed off her toned figure in the £240 two-piece from Melissa Odabash as she took a boat trip.
She accessorised with large black sunglasses and a straw hat as she posed up a storm for the camera.
Amanda captioned the post: 'Onslaught over!!'

Fans commented: 'You look so amazing' and 'You are looking flawless as always.'
Back in July, Amanda playfully warned her followers that she is set to begin posting her 'annual onslaught' of swimwear snaps.
The TV personality said she was spending some quiet downtime with her family in Corfu before her friends fly out to join them to start the party.
Sharing snaps from the first part of the trip, Amanda posed up a storm in a red and white bikini, which she styled with a straw beach hat and aviator shades.
The photos were taken on a boat while out at sea, with Amanda posing on the edge looking out on the water and at the wheel of the vessel.
Also included in the post was a clip of Amanda jumping off the boat into the crystal clear water below.
