Today’s Topic – In the News

TV presenter Davina McCall has been diagnosed with breast cancer. It comes one year after the 58-year-old underwent surgery to have a brain tumour removed.

The well known presenter posted a video on her Instagram earlier this morning, Saturday, November 8th to tell her fans about her condition.

Posting on socials, Davina commented, “Thanks to my family, to my brilliant kids, and an extra special thanks to Michael [Douglas, partner]. It’s been a lot. I was very angry when I found out, but I let go of that and I feel in a much more positive place now.

I think my message is: get checked if you’re worried. Check yourself regularly. If you are due a mammogram, then get it done. I have dense breasts and I had a mammogram in August, and I was postponing the ultrasound – I just couldn’t find time to do it. Don’t do that. Get the ultrasound.”
