Davina McCall shares update after brain tumour surgery as she admits to private healthcare privilege [Video]

The 57-year-old TV presenter shared her journey in an Instagram video, describing how a routine health check ultimately saved her life.

McCall revealed that the tumour, a rare benign growth affecting only three in a million people, was discovered during a private health check offered to her after she delivered a talk on menopause.

Reflecting on her recovery, she said: “I really feel a lot more myself now. I feel way better. My sense of gratitude is growing by the day. I’m crying a bit less, which is good. I’m really looking forward to Christmas.”

She acknowledged the cost of the private health check, stating: “It’s expensive — BUT it did save my life. It’s prohibitively expensive for most, but the NHS offers loads of checks too. Preventative medicine is better than reactive medicine. Eat well, do exercise, be less stressed. I just feel so grateful now.”
