Claudia Winkleman’s impressive TV earnings from her presenting roles have been revealed as she prepares to leave Strictly Come Dancing.
The fan-favourite, 53, announced last month with Tess Daly they would both be leaving the ballroom after this series.
Claudia is in demand with TV executives and will reportedly host her own BBC chat show as early as next year – and now her earnings have been revealed.
According to company accounts seen by The Sun, Claudia earned approximately £2million from fronting several big productions.
The mum-of-three owns Big Owl Productions, which paid a whopping £575,000 in corporation tax, newly released account statements show.
The figure, which covers earnings from May 2024 to April 2025, suggests Claudia pocketed £2million, with the business also having £3million in reserves.
Claudia created her production company in 2003 and it is listed as ‘amusement and recreation activities’ with Companies House.
As well as presenting Strictly, Claudia hosts The Traitors for the BBC, currently one of the highest rating television shows on screen.
The show will return next year for a fourth series, while the BBC has green-lit a second instalment of its celebrity version.
Earlier this month it was revealed bosses at the broadcaster were ‘fast-tracking’ Claudia’s chat show to start before the next series of The Traitors.
Claudia has recently cleared her diary by not returning to host Channel 4’s quiz One Question.
The new show will see Claudia interview a number of A-list stars and will air on Friday nights starting as early as March next year.
The BBC have yet to decide on a working title but are hoping the talk show will air for at least two months.
A TV insider told The Sun: ‘If ever proof were needed that Claudia is now very much the BBC’s golden girl following the huge success of The Celebrity Traitors, then this is it.
‘Given that Strictly started in September, it means that by the time her new chat show concludes she will have been on our screens almost constantly for eight months.
‘And they’re some of the biggest TV successes the BBC has ever seen — with the chat show expected to enjoy equally huge ratings when it debuts.
‘Work is hugely picking up pace, although the Beeb have yet to fully form the plan and announce it, though they’re expected to reveal more details next month.’
Claudia and Tess Daly were pictured arriving in Blackpool on Friday ahead of her final special show at the iconic ballroom with Strictly Come Dancing.
