Hannah Waddingham revealed in an interview with BBC Radio 2 why she is her daughter's second biggest inspiration- after singer Harry Styles.

The star was talking on Radio 2's Rule Breakers podcast hosted by Michelle Visage who spoke to the actress about her love for the West End, tearing down doors for future generations and working away from her 8-year-old daughter Kitty.

In the preview clip shared on BBC Radio 2's Instagram, the star shared the story of her daughter telling her class that Harry Styles and her mum were her biggest inspirations.

Hannah said in the interview: "Although I'm bit gutted about getting second billing. I mean nobody can be beat Harry Styles, he's ridiculously hot."

She then goes on to talk about how she was actually taken back by this conversation with her daughter and how happy it has made her.

She even joked about how her daughter also said in the conversation that her mummy has "do all the things so we can do all our things too."

Hannah and Michelle shortly after discuss what it's like being a working mum and how much it feels like a win when your children understand that you're doing it for them.

It was only recently that Hannah was seen looking gorgeous on the red carpet for the Emmy Awards on the 15 January.
