Claudia Winkleman opens up about ongoing health condition
While filming the last series of The Traitors, Claudia was challenged after she sustained an injury that needed medical attention.
“I’m 52, and I feel 75. I always do my back in. I’ve never exercised, and I have no core. I’m weak and frail, and I live on Hula Hoops,” she said.
“I’m in the Highlands filming for Traitors, and there’s quite a lot of standing around. It’s an uneven floor; if you are 52, you get it, and my back went. I begged the head of production for physio.
“The next day, a man arrives and starts working on my back…who said, ‘I’m a vet and an animal physio’. He was excellent. He sorted me. I’ve got L4 L5, I’m just crumpled.”
After not “standing up straight” for many years, Claudia said she’s also been working with a Pilates instructor to help improve her posture.
