Claudia Winkleman will undoubtedly be looking forward to spending her Saturday evenings with her family following her surprising departure from Strictly Come Dancing after 12 years.
The television presenter has worked for the popular BBC dance show for more than a decade, with her schedule requiring filming every Saturday evening from September right through to Christmas.
Her daughter Matilda Thykier will certainly be delighted to have her celebrity mum around more as she steps away from the programme at the conclusion of this series.
Whilst speculation continues regarding Claudia and her co-presenter Tess Daly's future projects, it appears Matilda has no intentions of pursuing them into the show business world.
