On 31 October 2014, Winkleman's then eight-year-old daughter Matilda was taken to hospital after being seriously injured when her Halloween costume caught fire. Winkleman stated that the costume brushed against a candle in a Jack O'Lantern. Winkleman was subsequently replaced by Zoë Ball as host of Strictly Come Dancing for three weeks.
