Fitness fan Davina: Even I struggle with a mummy tummy!

- By Alexander Holmes Showbusine­ss Reporter

WITH 13 exercise DVDs to her name and an impressive­ly toned body, you might think Davina McCall is about as fit as it gets.

But the 49-year-old yesterday claimed even she struggles with her figure sometimes as she spoke about her ‘mummy tummy’ on social media.

The mother-of-three wrote on Instagram that many women hold their arms up in photos to ‘make our tummies look better’.

After posting one photo in a bikini to demonstrat­e this, she then added a close-up of her stomach when she wasn’t posing, which revealed sagging skin.

The TV presenter wrote that after three kids, her stomach ‘looks like a shar pei puppy’, a breed with deep wrinkles. She added: ‘It’s one of my daughter’s fave things, my rolls. She’s helped me love them too. #fitness #motivation #mummytummy.’

The post prompted many fans to praise her, with one calling her ‘inspiratio­nal’ and another writing: ‘Such a good role model, so refreshing­ly honest.’

But others were less convinced, pointing out Miss McCall is still in incredible shape. One user said ‘there’s nothing there anyway’, while another said: ‘ “Rolls?” You should see mine.’
