Published on

Davina McCall and Michael Douglas have shed light on their life as newlyweds, with the TV personality revealing a significant decision for their future.

In their podcast ‘Making The Cut’, the couple delved into the topic of whether Davina would embrace the Douglas surname and depart from her well-known family name.

Addressing the matter, Davina emphasized her identity, stating, “I am Davina McCall in the public eye. I’ve always been Davina.”

Michael, aged 49, acknowledged, “Yes, you are my wife now.” Davina affirmed her decision to retain her original name, saying, “Yes, I will remain as such.”

This is not the first instance of the couple discussing their marriage since tying the knot in December last year after a seven-year relationship. Recently, Davina described their wedding as the “most memorable day” of her life.

Reflecting on the ceremony, she expressed, “While I cherished giving birth to my children, this was a distinct experience. It was a beautiful, intimate affair, very private.”

Echoing Davina’s sentiments, Michael recalled their special day as “wonderful and private,” emphasizing the importance of keeping it low-key.

Emotionally moved, Michael reflected on Davina’s health challenges in the past years, including undergoing surgery for a benign brain tumor in 2024 and dealing with breast cancer last year.

Opening up about his struggles, Michael shared, “Last year was incredibly tough for me. It was a breaking point, and by November, I felt defeated. But now, I feel remarkably better, the best I’ve felt in a long time.”

Aside from her personal life, Davina has been managing a busy schedule with hosting and presenting commitments, notably the show ‘Long Lost Family’, where she aids in reuniting separated family members.

The Masked Singer host has expressed her deep connection to the program, co-hosted with Nicky Campbell, which is currently in its fifteenth season.

Discussing the show’s impact, Davina highlighted the diverse and touching stories shared by participants, emphasizing the uniqueness of each individual’s journey and the profound impact of their reunions.

Despite her demanding hosting duties, Davina recently announced her decision to cut down her workweek to four days, following her health challenges and a newfound perspective on life priorities.

After facing a benign brain tumor and breast cancer diagnosis, Davina revealed her focus on reducing stress and achieving a more balanced life. She emphasized the importance of self-care and prioritizing her well-being in this stage of her life.
