BBC Traitors star Claudia Winkleman's six unusual food habits - including water phobia With the latest series of The Traitors now well underway, once again audiences have been delighted by show host Claudia Winkleman’s presence on screen as she oversees the ultimate game of deception that sees contestants hoping to secure an impressive cash prize by masquerading as traitors among the faithful.
Opening up about her unusual preference, Claudia told the Off the Menu podcast: "I don’t like or believe in water, I won’t have it… I’ve never knowingly had water, I don’t like it.
Yet keeping The Traitors in line is no easy feat, and it definitely takes a solid diet to wrack up enough energy for filming, which can sometimes even involve long gruelling days - and on occasion, even night shoots.
For some people it’s veal or for others raw fish - yet in Claudia’s case, her worst case scenario is being asked to drink a glass of plain water.
When people drink it, like my husband drinks great amounts of water, and I really like him but it’s problematic... He’s glugging… I don’t think so.
