Davina McCall makes emotional relationship confession as she 'looks forward'
Long Lost Family star Davina McCall has shared an emotional relationship confession, saying that she "looks forward" to one thing.
Having first met her boyfriend, Michael Douglas, when he was working as her hairstylist while she was hosting Big Brother in the early 2000s, it wasn't until nearly two decades later that their friendship became romantic, when they started dating in 2019.
Since then, their relationship has gone from strength to strength, with constant speculation surrounding whether the pair will eventually tie the knot. The couple even co-host their own podcast together, Making the Cut with Davina McCall and Michael Douglas.
In a recent episode of the podcast, the pair shared that they had recently met up with Joel Dommett and his wife, Hannah Cooper
While explaining that they had known the couple for a few years, Davina said they were all eager to find out a little bit more about each other. In doing so, they played a game devised by Michael, where they picked a song and explained how it related to a specific memory from their earlier years.
Reflecting on the heart-warming moments with the Masked Singer presenter and his wife, Davina made an emotional confession to Michael, saying that she looks forward to hearing even more tales about his earlier life: "Because we're going to be together for the rest of our lives. I'm really looking forward to hearing all of the stories to all the songs."
Later in the podcast, Davina revealed that Michael had even made her a playlist of songs to help her as she recently went into hospital to undergo brain surgery.
This came after a scan of the presenter's brain last year revealed a tumour. After further tests confirmed that it was a benign colloid cyst, she underwent an operation to have it removed.
Before settling down with Michael, Davina had already established herself as one of the most recognisable faces in broadcasting, having hosted Big Brother during its heyday in the early 2000s.
Her career has continued to flourish since, including her long-standing role as co-host of ITV 's Long Lost Family alongside Nicky Campbell, where the pair help reunite relatives after years apart.
In more recent years, she has also added an array of podcasts to her impressive CV, including Begin Again, a show that aims to "embrace midlife as their most transformative era yet."
She can also be heard co-hosting Making the Cut weekly with her boyfriend, Michael.

Joanna Lumley ‘wouldn't mind' assisted dying if she got to a ‘miserable' state
The 79-year-old said she supported the Terminally Ill Adults (End of Life) Bill, which was backed by MPs in the Commons last month, that would allow terminally ill adults with fewer than six months to live to apply for an assisted death. Asked about the Bill in an interview with Saga Magazine, Dame Joanna said: 'People are terribly anxious about it and think one may be coerced (into voluntary euthanasia). 'But I'm saying this now when nobody's coercing me, don't let me turn into somebody who doesn't recognise the people I love most, where I'm having a miserable time. 'When I get to the stage where I can't speak and have to be fed, that won't be me any more and that's when I wouldn't mind saying farewell.' The Bill would see those wishing to go through assisted dying require approval by two doctors and a panel featuring a social worker, senior legal figure and psychiatrist. It will next come before the House of Lords for further debate and votes. One of the Bill's most high-profile backers has been TV presenter Dame Esther Rantzen, 85, who has terminal cancer, and recently urged members of the House of Lords not to block the legislation. Dame Joanna is best known for her roles as Patsy Stone in the BBC sitcom Absolutely Fabulous, Sapphire in ITV supernatural series Sapphire And Steel, and in The New Avengers, the 1970s revamped version of 1960s ITV spy series The Avengers. She will appear in season two of Netflix supernatural series Wednesday as Grandmama in August.
