Davina McCall is in intensive care following “textbook” brain surgery to remove a tumour, her boyfriend confirmed last night.
Fans and friends of the star were relieved to hear the news as they flooded the TV legend’s comment section with well-wishes.
Davina McCall undergoes brain surgery to remove tumour
Yesterday (Friday, November 15), Davina, 57, revealed to fans that she was going to be having brain surgery.
In a video posted on her Instagram, Davina explained that the reason behind the surgery was because a tumour was found on her brain.
“Hi, so I’m posting this, it will be Friday morning. I’m posting it because a few months ago I did a menopause talk for a company and they offered me a health scan in return, which I thought I was going to ace, but it turned out I had a benign brain tumour called a colloid cyst, which is very rare,” she said.
Davina then said that she’d put her “head in the sand” about it for a while. However, after visiting various neurosurgeons, she received multiple opinions and realised she had to undergo surgery to remove it.
“It’s big for the space – it fills the space. It’s 14mm wide. And it needs to come out because if it grows it would be bad,” she then said.

“Hey all. Davina is out of surgery and according to the surgeon, it was textbook!” he wrote.
“She’s currently recovering in ICU as a precaution, as you can imagine, she’s utterly exhausted,” he then continued.
“Thanks so much for all the love on here…it’s powerful stuff, we are super grateful, Michael,” he then added.
