Hannah Waddingham’s Christmas special performance was the greatest achievement for her
In a recent interview, Waddingham discussed how the special turned out to be a blessing in disguise for her, “The fact that my daughter was 8 when we shot this and was sitting in the [theater] box where I sat from the age of 8 is kind of weird. She was 8 sitting there and observing with her little spirit and her little heart seeing her mommy standing there when I had sat there and seen my mommy.”
“To have them both there and to have my daughter,” Waddingham stated, “If I never did anything again, this special would be my greatest achievement.”
