Claudia Winkleman, host of Strictly Come Dancing and The Traitors, has been married to film producer Kris Thykier since 2000. The couple have three children together.
Claudia, 53, shared that her nightly routine often frustrates her husband. She enjoys soaking in the tub every evening, creating a perfect wind-down moment for herself.
During an appearance on the SheerLuxe podcast in 2023, Claudia described her ideal bath time experience in detail:
"I like a bath, and I'm not just saying it again, I like a bath melt. We've created a new bath melt. I like a book, I like hair up, I like a clip, then I like to wrap myself like a yeti in 17 towels that I'm never going to hang up."
What her husband finds most frustrating is that after her bath, Claudia wraps herself in many towels but never hangs them up afterwards. She explained:
"I've been married for 23 years, it makes him almost burst into tears but I can't help it. I want to help him but somehow I can't. They're like little atolls all around the room. Just small, damp threadbare areas that he has to tiptoe around, what are you going to do."
Claudia Winkleman's cherished nightly bath ritual, including her habit of leaving towels carelessly around, is a charming yet endearing source of mild frustration for her husband after more than two decades of marriage.
