Claudia Winkleman greets us every Saturday night with a familiar and friendly face as the host of Strictly Come Dancing.
Alongside Tess Daly, the star is there to support the celebrities after each performance and ensure the live shows go as smoothly as possible.
While readers might be familiar with Claudia's husband, who is a successful film producer with whom she shares three children, Matilda, Jake and Arthur, fewer might be aware that the Traitors presenter's parents were pretty successful themselves.

Who is Claudia Winkleman's mother?
Claudia's mum is Eve Pollard OBE who had a prosperous career as a journalist. Eve worked in the past as the editor of the Observer Colour Magazine.
After that, she went on to be the editor of the Sunday Mirror. She's also held high-up positions at Elle in the US and You Magazine.
Eve married Claudia's father, Barry, in 1968 but they divorced in 1975. Eve would go on to marry Nicholas Lloyd, also a journalist, with whom she welcomed a son, Oliver.

"Naturally, living with two national newspaper editors, Claudia did hear us talking about news and the celebrity stories we were working on," Eve wrote.
"Also, prime ministers, writers and actors came round for supper. Without ever discussing it, I imagine this meant she was never daunted by fame."
However, it wasn't until much later that Claudia's career ambitions came to fruition. After graduating, she went to work in fashion before venturing into broadcasting and writing.
Claudia's close bond with her famous mum
In the same interview, Eve revealed how close she is to her daughter. "It really doesn't bother her if we think she is just a glam bird. Underneath, there is a deep intelligence. There is oodles of kindness too.
"We speak every day, about her children, work and life. She lives nearby and I am encouraged to nip in and out. I feel very lucky. I couldn't be more proud."
© Dave M. BenettIt seems there's an enormous amount of mutual respect as Claudia previously told MailOnline about their strong bond.
"I was brought up by the strongest and most brilliant woman I've ever come across – my mum. She was strong, and fantastic, and taught me everything I needed to know in being female."
She added: "She was, and still is, my role model."
