She said: 'Lexi was approached last year and obviously we were waiting until she was 16 to sign anything. It's something she actually wants to do, so I'm taking the lead from her.
'She's a very quiet girl but she knows her own mind. She's very bright and wants to continue her studies.
'There's no pressure and we'll just see what happens. But finishing her education is very much her plan, she'll have our support whatever she decides to do.'
It comes after Amanda, who is also mother to Hollie, 10, with husband Chris Hughes, 49, previously spoke to MailOnline about Lexi signing with Storm, the agency that represented Kate Moss for 28 years.

She said: 'They came after her and they're very lovely and nurturing and it will be a soft, slow thing and she won't do anything until she's 18 but they want her and that's what she wants to do.
'I have to say there was quite a number of them and there's such a different mindset to how you might think modelling agencies look after the young, but they are very nurturing and very caring, all of them.

Lexi's beautiful looks have been inherited from her TV star mum, who says maintaining her glamorous appearance even now she's in her 50s is 'part of her DNA.'
She said: 'It's rare that I've not got any makeup on.
'It's self-preservation, dignity, pride in how you look, and I've never knowingly been understated in any situation. Whenever I have been photographed or on a run or anything like that, I will always have mascara and a lip on, if not a lash, always.
'When I'm on holiday I will strip it back a little bit but even then I'll have a tinted moisturiser on and some sort of shimmery body lotion so I still look half decent while I'm roasting in the sunshine, which I love.
'I don't get sick of it… it is part of my DNA I have to say that.'
Amanda added: 'She's a very quiet girl but she knows her own mind. She's very bright and wants to continue her studies'
