Davina McCall has made an "enormous leap forward" after getting surgery to remove a brain tumour.
The ITV presenter recently revealed she had been diagnosed with a "very rare" brain tumor called a colloid cyst. She told followers the benign tumour was around 14mm and she was getting surgery in hospital to remove it.
The Masked Singer judge said the tumour "needed to come out" because if it grew, it would be "bad". Davina, 57, had asked fans to "pray" for her while discussing her upcoming op in a video posted last week.
Her boyfriend Michael Douglas, who has taken over her social media accounts while she recovers from the surgery, has revealed Davina is doing well after her surgery and has left the ICU.
In an update on Instagram, he wrote: "Update folks. Thanks so much to all the well wishers. She really has made an enormous leap forward in the last 24 hours. She is out of ICU She is 'loving awareness'. Thank you xx Michael."
Davina's famous friends and fans rushed to the comments to celebrate the good news. Ashley Roberts wrote: "what we like to hear x [heart emojis]."
Olympian Dame Kelly Holmes commented: "Awesome news Michael [heart emoji]". EastEnders star Patsy Palmer said: "Sending healing [heart emojis] [plaster emoji]".
In her previous video, Davina had explained she was getting a procedure called a craniotomy to remove the tumour. She said she would be in hospital for "around nine days" after the procedure and was "in good spirits" ahead of it.
