"Chloe - or 'Coco' as I call my daughter Chloe - Coco, thank you very much indeed for coming in."
Many viewers were left confused by the random tidbit, with others questioning why: "He'd infantilise one of the Lions in this manner."
On Twitter, one disgruntled footie fan wrote: "Richard Madeley you don't interview someone then end with calling them your daughters nickname.. show Chloe Kelly some respect, she's more than earned it."

"Richard Madeley is the drunk uncle at weddings who thinks he's great but everyone thinks he's a t**t," another added.
A third said: "Richard Madeley is such a weird f*****g person, calling Chloe Kelly' Coco' on national TV with the reasoning of 'that's what I call my daughter.
"So f*****g what? Chloe Kelly isn't your daughter. Delusional, almost like he's trying to be apart of her moment. F*****g creepy."
Madeley was not the only man to come under fire following the Women's victory on Sunday, with Gary Lineker also putting his foot in it.
"The Lionesses have only gone and done it and Kelly is England's heroine, bra none," the 61-year-old pundit wrote in a since-deleted Tweet.

Lineker was slammed online, with many branding his words "sexist" and accusing him of opening the misogynistic flood gates. One such person was domestic abuse campaigner Karen Ingala Smith who called for an apology.
Lineker took to social media and stated: "It was just a play on words given the celebration. I do rubbish like that constantly on here, including on men's football. I've deleted it as many people didn't see the game so missed the context."
