When it comes life in the showbiz sphere, it’s safe to say that Claudia Winkleman is a woman in demand. Whether it’s presenting Strictly Come Dancing alongside Tess Daly, keeping The Traitors in line in the BBC smash hit whodunnit series, or delighting audiences alongside Mika and Lang Lang in Channel 4 ’s The Piano, there’s certainly no rest for the wicked.
Yet one thing Claudia has managed to prioritise amid her jam-packed schedule, is her own health and wellness - and unlike some stars, the much loved presenter likes to keep things lowkey and simple by following a few golden rules to make sure she remains at her best. However, don’t be fooled, some of Claudia’s life hacks aren’t for the fainthearted.
Here, we unpack some of the showbiz icon’s most favoured health and wellness tips…. When appearing on screen, Claudia often looks flawless but it may surprise some fans to know that unlike her work persona, she doesn’t actually keep mirrors in her home. In 2014, Claudia told Women’s Health’s Going for Goal podcast that her mum former newspaper editor Eve Pollard had raised her in a house that didn’t have any mirrors - and it appears the habit has stuck, as Claudia has opted to continue it in her own home.
“I was brought up in a house without mirrors, so my mum is a huge believer – and my dad – in the shell is only that. What I look like, how I’ve done my eyeliner – that’s not the shiz, the stuff is the inside, the chat, the brains, the laughs, the loyalty, the kindness, the cooking an extraordinary roast chicken,” she explained.
