THE Queen of Clean Kim Woodburn has dished all on the worst Christmas present she ever received – and it came from her hubby of all people.
The TV presenter, 82, had received many a Christmas present over the years but her husband Peter once took things a step too far with a present that many would expect to be right up Kim’s street.
Kim rose to fame in the early 2000s thanks to her role on the hit Channel 4 programme How Clean Is Your House? alongside co-star Aggie MacKenzie.
A ratings hit, Kim became Channel 4’s highest-paid star of the 2000s thanks to her expert cleaning hacks and ability to transform Britain’s filthiest houses into the cleanest.
But don’t go buying Kim anything cleaning-related for her main present – something Peter found out the hard way!
Speaking to the Daily Mirror about her Christmas habits, Kim confessed that she was once gifted THIRTY bin liners by Peter.
She told the publication: “Well, my husband one year – oh dear God!
“He bought me one year – the box came through the door, a man delivered it. Nice and heavy. He said, ‘I thought of this, you’ll be thrilled with this.’ I opened it, it was a big box of bin liners.
“About 20 to a pack, about 30 packs. He said, ‘Well you’re always saying you haven’t got enough.’ I thought, ‘It’s Christmas Day!’”
Despite the mishap, Kim and her husband have had a long and happy marriage after first meeting back in 1979.
The pair have no children and choose not to host at Christmas time instead opting to spend the day as just the two of them.
Kim added to the Mirror: “[It’s] Just us two.
“I never entertain! I never entertain in my house, never have. If I’m going to entertain, I’ll take people to a hotel.
“I’m not going to wash and dry and cook and bake and run up and down.
“[I’ve] got a few bob, take them to a restaurant and let other people look after it.
“I’m not waiting on a bunch of people at Christmas, I’d wear myself out – I’d rather have a gin and tonic and a roast spud!”
