Davina McCall has revealed she was diagnosed with breast cancer six weeks ago and has undergone successful surgery after discovering a lump in her breast while on the set of The Masked Singer.

The TV personality, 58, took to her Instagram with the news on Saturday and explained how the disease had been caught ‘very very early’ but would still require radiotherapy.

In the candid clip Davina said she was opening up in a bid to help others, just like she did when doctors operated on her rare benign brain tumour in November 2024.

She recalled first discovering the lump while on the set of the ITV singing show, before a sign in the toilets at the Lorraine studio’s encouraged her to get checked.

Davina said: ‘I just wanted to tell you I have had breast cancer, I found a lump a few weeks ago and it came and went,’

‘But then when I was filming the Masked Singer the show Lorraine, put signs on the back of their toilet doors saying “check your breasts” and every time I went for a wee I did that, and it was still there’

‘So I underwent a biopsy and it was indeed breast cancer and I had it taken out in a lumpectomy nearly three weeks weeks ago’.

Davina went on to discuss the results of her surgery and how doctors have now given her the all clear.

The former Big Brother host went on: ‘It was very very small so I got it very very early, which is incredibly lucky, but I am so relieved that I have had it removed and that it hasn’t spread’.

Davina said that despite the good news she would still require five days of radiotherapy in January as a ‘insurance policy’ to ensure she was cancer free.

She went on to thank doctors, her family and fiancé Michael Douglas before admitting: ‘I was very angry when I found out, but I let go of that and I feel in much more positive place now’.

Davina captioned the clip: ‘The message here, is know your boobs. Notice any changes. Don’t procrastinate. Get your free checkups. And never ignore a niggle. Sending out huge love’.
