Famed for her thick tweed ensembles befitting the Scottish Highlands, it may come as no surprise that The Traitors host is less than keen on summer garb — in fact, she says she doesn't like it at all.‌Europe has been gripped by a scorching summer heatwave in recent days, with the record for the UK's hottest day in June broken three days in a row. On Friday, temperatures hit a sizzling 37.3C in Suffolk.‌It likely spelt bad news for Claudia, who said she finds the season "annoying". So much so, The Mail’s Harriet Kean speculated that the former Strictly star "can't wait" to get back into her Highland outfits.‌Claudia said: "I hate summer. I find it so annoying. I don't like water. I don't like the arrogance. I don't like summer clothes. I'm never going to be like, 'Oh, I've got a great salad recipe with beetroot'."It comes after Claudia's stylist of two decades, Sinead McKeefry, shared details about a moment on The Celebrity Traitors when "it really turned".‌On the show, it's been said that Claudia "repeatedly steals the show" with her outfits, showcasing a wardrobe that reflects the "moody Scottish landscape", but the weather can prove challenging at times.Speaking about one such occasion, Sinead told Hello!: "It really turned. And trying to get things to that castle is not easy. I spend a lot of time on the phone to DHL. Amazon's party section has also got us out of a hole."In other news, Claudia recently spoke out after the BBC announced its new Strictly presenting line-up: Emma Willis, Johannes Radebe and Josh Widdicombe, who will step in for her and Tess Daly this year.‌She wrote on Instagram: "MAGNIFICENT. What a trio", alongside red heart emojis. Tess posted with heart and fire emojis, saying: "Can't wait to tune in the ultimate trio!"Claudia and Tess disclosed in October last year that they would be exiting the show once the 2025 series ended, telling fans it felt "like the right time" to move on.Article continues belowIn a joint statement, they wrote: "We have loved working as a duo and hosting Strictly has been an absolute dream. We were always going to leave together and now feels like the right time."We will have the greatest rest of this amazing series and we just want to say an enormous thank you to the BBC and to every single person who works on the show. They're the most brilliant team and we'll miss them every day."Fans are said to have embraced the news, with many dubbing the choices as "epic" and "brilliant".
