Davina McCall asks fans to 'pray for her' as she undergoes brain surgery after tumour diagnosis

Davina McCall has asked fans to 'pray for her' as she revealed she has a brain tumour and is undergoing surgery. Doctors discovered the Masked Singer judge had a 14mm benign brain tumour.

The news was discovered during a health scan a few months ago while giving a talk for a menopause company. In a video update shared on Friday (November 15), Davina asked her fans to keep her in their prayers as her boyfriend Michael Douglas takes over her social media during her recovery period.

Michael reassured fans that Davina is in "great shape" but will be "off grid" until she's fully recovered. He wrote in the caption of the video: "Hey everyone. Michael here. @davinamccall will be "off grid" for a bit while she recovers from this brain operation. She is in great shape and in very good hands."

He added: "I'll do the odd update from her account here for anyone interested. I'm sure she'll read all the comments when she's able to so feel free to send love [heart emoji] . The support of people is amazingly powerful. Have a great day everyone. Michael xxx".

Alongside her partner's caption, Davina addressed fans in a video, saying: "I was offered a health scan which I thought I was going to ace but it turned out I had benign brain tumour which is very rare, 'three in a million'. I put my head in the sand for a while. It's 14mm wide and it needs to come out because if it grows it would be bad. I'm having it removed."

She then added: "Say a prayer for me. I'm in good spirits."
