We understand being one with nature, enjoying life, living on a deserted beach and we very much value our nearest and dearests enough to have multiple conversations with them without using our smartphones or watching television.

    The mother-of-three told The Sun: "The children of the future will be in therapy going, 'I never talked to my mum and dad as they were always online'. It’s gone a bit bonkers.

    She added: "I want my children (Matilda, Jake and Arthur) to lay in a hammock, read a book and use their imaginations."

    BIG IRONY ALERT... Claudia recently recorded a promo for the BBC talking about some of her fave programes on the TV:
