Amanda Lamb was born in Portsmouth and was brought up in Havant, Hampshire. She now lives in London. She worked as an estate agent in Havant and part-time as a barmaid for five years before becoming a model. She is currently a television presenter.

In 1994, she took over the role of the "Scottish Widow" from British Actress Deborah Moore in a long-running series of advertisements for the investment company, Scottish Widows Fund and Life Assurance Society. Lamb was once asked by David Bailey to glide across the screen wearing roller skates in a scene which never made it to the final cut. Lamb's final advert and her favourite was called "The Lighthouse", this contract lasted ten years.

In June 1998, she appeared in a silver bikini for FHM.
