Tumour removal was ‘hardest thing’, Davina McCall tells Comic Relief
A tearful Davina McCall said the removal of a brain tumour was “the hardest thing” she had ever been through as she reflected on the experience during Red Nose Day’s 40th anniversary show.
The TV presenter – who underwent surgery in November – cried as she spoke of the support she received from her family and her partner Michael Douglas.
She was speaking during Comic Relief: Funny for Money, which saw performances from the Sugababes and a host of 80s stars as well as sketches involving the Gladiators and Strictly Come Dancing professionals.
The programme had raised £34m for the charity by the end of the anniversary broadcast.
Speaking about her experience former Big Brother presenter McCall said: “I had a pretty mad year this year. Doctors found a benign brain tumour, by chance, and after a lot of deliberating, I had it removed.
