Claudia Winkleman’s daughter is in hospital after her Halloween costume caught fire leaving her badly burnt.

Eight-year-old Matilda’s witch outfit went up in flames when she brushed past some candles inside a pumpkin while trick-or-treating on Friday night.

The Strictly Come Dancing presenter missed Saturday and Sunday’s shows to stay by the bedside of her daughter.

Matilda is said to have been in a group supervised by adults when her witch’s cape caught fire, and was pushed to the ground and rolled over in an attempt to put out the flames.
