Car insurance named driver query

I'm looking for some advice on car insurance.

My girlfriend is planning on adding me as a named driver on her car insurance

If SHE had a accident and had to claim on HER car insurance, if I am a named driver, when I come to my car insurance renewal do I have to tell insurance companies about this claim?

On top of this, will it affect MY no claims bonus if she had to claim?

Thanks.

    Not if she isnt a named driver on your policy. 

    If she was a ND on yours then it would need to be declared under her driving/insurance experience but wouldnt impact your NCD
