Davina McCall issues update after brain tumour surgery

Davina McCall's spokesperson has set the record straight over rumours that the TV favourite is set to wed her beau Michael Douglas following her recent brain surgery.

Rumours had been brewing that Davina was all set to say '"I do" to Michael, after his unwavering support throughout her recovery period. However, her reps confirmed to Reach there are no wedding plans on the horizon, reports the Daily Record.

Following her brain surgery, a source told Closer magazine: "It's been a life changing couple of days for Davina. She now wants to do everything on her bucket list and more. First off, yes, she'll marry Michael."

The source added: "There have been a lot of tears, but Michael has been a pillar of strength - taking charge of the kids and looking after Davina as she recovers. It has made her think that marriage could be on the cards".

Another source spoke to Heat magazine explaining: "This is her second chance and pals wouldn't be surprised if she married Michael very soon, but right now, her top priority is her recovery."

Davina originally met Michael during her stint on Big Brother.

The presenter shares three grown-up children with her ex-husband Matthew Robertson - Holly, 23, Tilly, 21, and Chester, 18.

Davina and Michael maintained a friendship until 2019, which blossomed into romance two years after her separation from Matthew.
