Davina McCall says she 'rarely' spends time with partner in candid confession

Davina McCall has opened up about her life with partner Michael Douglas, admitting something that "rarely" occurs. During a fresh episode of the Making The Cut podcast, which Davina presents alongside Michael, the pair revealed they were recording their show on a Saturday — something they don't typically do.

At the start of the programme, Michaeldisclosed they were actually without children that day, giving them the house entirely to themselves — a situation any hectic parent would surely envy.

Davina and Michael have been an official item since 2019, but they've known each other a long time. He was Davina'shairstylist during her time on Big Brother. They went on to announce they'd moved in together in January 2023.

Michael said: "It is Saturday; we never really record on a Saturday, but today, ladies and gentlemen, we are free. We have no kids. We have the house to ourselves."

Adding her thoughts, Davina remarked: "Do you know what's funny — is how rarely that happens." As the episode continued, Michael admitted they actually have very "little" time together as a pair.

Michael replied: "Like, it's unbelievable. You wouldn't believe just how little time we get together, you know, on our own, where we haven't got stuff to do, where, you know, it requires like not being but doing."

It appears they intended to make the most of the day. Davina was heard agreeing with her partner, who added that this afternoon, they were "gonna be."

This comes after reports that Davina felt "so happy to be back" at work following her recent brain tumour surgery. She shared these sentiments during an interview on BBC'sThe One Show, hosted by Alex Jones and Vernon Kay.

In November, the presenter disclosed that a colloid cyst had been found during a health check. She subsequently underwent surgery and spent time in intensive care before returning home to recuperate.

In February, Davina shared that she faced the "saddest" revelation while recovering from her operation. Speaking in a previous episode of the podcast, she mentioned that she'd experienced issues with her short-term memory.

In fact, it would prove to be so significant that Davina even forgot she’d undergone surgery — and believed that she was scheduled for the operation the next day. Michael was instructed to ensure she didn't touch her scar and had to "reinforce reality."

However, in a heart-wrenching confession, Davinadescribed how she "spent the most amazing afternoon" with her dad, who had passed away "two years ago."

She said: "I think the saddest one for me, because I had spent the most amazing afternoon with my dad, who died two years ago — but it was the most real experience I have ever had."
