Claudia Winkleman has seen her fair share of murder as host of The Traitors – and with a wardrobe most contestants would kill for, she may want to watch her back.
Just three episodes into the fourth series, the outfits the presenter has worn on the show have been worth at least £16,400.
Ms Winkleman’s ensembles cost £5,482 on average, meaning that by the end of the 12-episode series her clothing costs could total £65,784.
That’s almost double the national average salary for the UK last year of £38,000.
The presenter hand-picks the items in her wardrobe with the help of her long-serving stylist Sinead McKeefry.
In the first episode, which aired on New Year’s Day, Ms Winkleman, 53, wore a £279 purple velvet blazer from Jigsaw and a £179 pink blouse from LK Bennett.
She also stepped out in her favourite Saint Laurent boots, which cost £975, as she welcomed the 22 new contestants to Ardross Castle in the Scottish Highlands.
The next morning, as the contestants were tasked with retrieving coffins floating in a lake, the former Strictly host wore a £3,865 Saint Laurent coat and a dark olive tartan shirt from Purdey worth £425.
