Beloved TV presenter Davina McCall has bravely shared details of her recent brain tumour surgery, admitting she was "terrified" by the ordeal. The 55-year-old star, known for hosting hit shows like Big Brother and Long Lost Family, underwent the procedure earlier this year.
A Shocking Diagnosis
McCall revealed she discovered the tumour after experiencing persistent headaches and dizziness. "It came as a complete shock," she said. "One minute I was filming, the next I was being told I needed brain surgery."
The Emotional Toll
The presenter described the emotional impact of her diagnosis: "I was absolutely petrified. The word 'tumour' immediately makes you think the worst." She praised her medical team for their reassurance and expertise throughout the process.
Road to Recovery
Since the successful operation, McCall has been focusing on her recovery. "I'm taking things slowly," she explained. "My family have been incredible - I couldn't have got through this without them."
The television personality hopes her story will encourage others to listen to their bodies and seek medical advice when something feels wrong. "Don't ignore symptoms," she urged. "Early detection can make all the difference."
