EX Bond Girl Britt Ekland has slammed No Time To Day for "ruining the fantasy" with James Bond having a child.

Bond will have five-year-old daughter Mathilde with love interest Madeleine Swann in the next film, according to reports.

However, it hasn't been welcome news for everyone - including former Bond Girl Britt, who played Goodnight in Man With The Golden Gun.

Speaking on Good Morning Britain, Britt said: "Bond should probably be a little more untouchable. He's a fantasy."

When asked by Susanna if it ruins the fantasy, Britt replied: "I think so. I personally think so."

She also said when Daniel Craig leaves the role after this film, the new Bond should go back to his womanising ways.

However, she told Piers he wouldn't be the next pick, saying: "Piers, you, like me, have probably put on too many quarantine kilos."

The studio then erupted into laughter at the jibe.

No Time To Die - which has been delayed until November because cinemas are closed - will show Bond (Daniel Craig) as a dad with his love interest Dr Madeleine Swann (Lea Seydoux).

Rumours emerged last week when call sheets went up for sale on eBay.

These daily schedules showed a scene shot in southern Italy last September with Dr Swann alongside Nomi (Lashana Lynch) and a child called Mathilde - played by five-year-old Lisa-Dorah Sonne.

The scene is described as "Nomi pilots Madeleine and Mathilde to safety with the island in the background".

Reports are suggesting this description is proof that Mathilde is the child of Bond and Dr Swann.

Photographs taken on the set show a young girl wearing blue dungarees, however it is not confirmed if this is Mathilde.

A film insider told: "Yes, it's true. Bond is a dad. Daniel wanted to make this Bond film the most surprising and entertaining yet.

"Daniel is older and his Bond is maturing and looking at life through the prism of fatherhood. But there's a lot more to it than that."
