Claudia Winkleman warns she'll 'sleep with husband's brother' over one controversial issue

Strictly Come Dancing star Claudia Winkleman has cheekily "warned" her husband that she might "sleep with his brother" if he does the one thing she hates.

Since stepping into Sir Bruce Forsyth's shoes in 2014 alongside Tess Daly, Winkleman has been a mainstay on the popular BBC dance programme. Meanwhile her marriage to film producer Kris Thykier has been going strong since the year 2000.

But Claudia admits there is one thing Kris can do that she finds the "most unattractive thing ever".

Speaking to comedian Paul Merton on Room 101 last year, the 52-year-old revealed she has a number of unusual turn-offs.

She said: "I don't think I could have sex with somebody who had a very strict system when it came to loading the dishwasher. I'm just, it goes in, it comes out, everyone please relax."

Continuing her lighthearted rant, she added, "So yeah, I'd find that quite tiresome.

My husband is much cleaner than I am, he once said 'babe, you know where we keep the mustard', and I was like, I'm happy to call [counselling charity] Relate, don't touch me.

"I think this might be one of the most unattractive things ever."

Merton queried how far Claudia's hatred for organisation goes, pointing out there's often a spot in the kitchen for plates, or small plates. Claudia joked: "I'm not wild.

"I'm not playing Frisbee, I'll put them in. But if one goes skew-whiff, and he came up and went, 'well that's never going to work' then I'm going to sleep with your brother."

Merton highlighted a survey that found 42 per cent of respondents had reloaded the dishwasher after their family had gone to bed because they felt it was done "incorrectly".

Claudia quipped: "They also have coasters and prefer it when people take their shoes off when they come into the house."

Claudia and Tess will be fronting Strictly Come Dancing again tonight from 6.35pm on BBC One.
