During a recent interview with Red magazine, Claudia revealed that work commitments had threatened her marriage. "All I know is that you can have a different marriage with the same man," she explained. "I think it's also about growing older and being cosy. Working too hard puts a strain on – but we're still working hard now,' she added.

"The pair faced another difficult time recently when their daughter was injured in a Halloween accident.Matilda's costume caught fire while she was out trick-or-treating in London with her mum, and was consequently hospitalised with severe burns.
