So when she opened about her daughter, Matilda, 14, in her new book, Quite, her fans were understandably intrigued.

Claudia - who also had to seek professional help to combat the horrifying image of Matilda's costume going up in flames - gushed about the NHS workers who were so incredible when Matilda was hurt.
She wrote: "There have been moments in my life, the most terrifying, the most confusing, the most discombobulating – that have led me to believe that the greatest people who walk the earth are nurses.
"They are kind, they are clever, they work incredibly hard, they are there to save us, or to help us through it when saving is simply not possible.
