Claudia Winkleman was left mortified after she swore in front of a school pupil live on air.
On Friday (20 March), the 54-year-old was interviewed by youngster Finley during an appearance on Heart Breakfast, before hosts Amanda Holden and Jamie Theakston resumed their regular hosting duties.
Believing that Finley, who had dialled in remotely, was no longer on the line, Winkleman jokingly replied “f*** sake” when Theakston and Holden told the audience that The Traitors host would still be on the show after the break.
Suddenly realising that they were still on air and Finley was still on the call, Winkleman profusely apologised.
The studio burst into laughter as Finley reassured her it was fine.
