But she’s managed a quick trip to London for the star-studded event held at The Royal Festival Hall.
Claudia looked chic in a smart black jacket and matching cropped trousers and boosted her height with white stiletto heels.
Producer Kris, also 54, looked dapper in his suit and bow tie as he stood beside her inside the event after they held hands on the red carpet.
The couple has been married since June 2000 but rarely step out at big events together.
