Davina McCall made a surprise appearance just days after sharing the news she'd be undergoing surgery for a brain tumour.
The TV personality shared a frightening health update earlier this month when she revealed she had a benign brain tumour which was going to be operated on.
Posting on her Instagram account last week, the former Big Brother presenter explained in a video with her partner Michael Douglas: "Hi, so when 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.
"Three in a million! So I slightly put my head in the sand for a while, and then I saw quite a few neurosurgeons, I got lots of opinions.
"I realised that I have to get it taken out. 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.”

The 48-year-old, who has been with McCall, 57, since 2019, joked: "In fact I offered to do the operation, just to make sure it was done properly! They wouldn’t let me. She’s in very good hands."
Thankfully, his recent have confirmed McCall's surgery went well and that she had been recovering.
