It’s chest not fair! Davina has the bosom blues as she misses her ample days
SHE recently said she couldn’t lose her sixpack, even if she wanted to... but Davina McCall is now reminiscing about her once more-ample bosom after coming across a few old photos from her gameshow days.
‘What happened to my boobs? Where did they go?’ she asked her Twitter followers, before answering herself by saying: ‘Three children!!’
Superfit Davina, 50, who recently split from her husband after 17 years, jokingly blamed her offspring for the changes as she grew nostalgic for her figure from her mid-thirties.
Davina, pictured, reposted pictures from her show Don’t Try This At Home!, in which she starred alongside Kate Thornton and Paul Hendy. The Saturday night game show, which ran between 1998 and 2001, featured real people facing tough challenges.
It was during this time that Davina met and married her second husband Matthew Robertson.
However, it wasn’t until after Davina began presenting Big Brother – between 2000 and 2010 – that she welcomed their three children, Holly, 16, Tilly, 14 and Chester, 11.
Her body has certainly transformed over the last 20 years and she says she is now a Size 10, compared to an earlier Size 10-12 and her weight is stable at a slender 9st 10lbs.
In an interview with New! magazine this week, Davina said that her enviable abs were things she didn’t think she’d ever lose. She said: ‘Do you know, I don’t think I could lose [my six-pack] if I tried. It’s one of those physiological things that I just have.
‘Honestly, I’m not going, “Oh my God, I must go and work on my sixpack.” It sounds terrible but it’s just there.’ The TV presenter has over the years, become something of a fitness DVD queen, producing 14 bestselling workout videos, the latest of which, Davina: Toned In 10, focuses on her legs. But in her personal life her recent separation seems to have proved challenging for her – and exercise seems to be a lifesaver.
In the past, Davina has been candid about her mental health demons and past addictions, and admits she depends on exercise to keep her feeling good, as much as looking good.
Davina told Bella magazine this week: ‘The mental side of it is really huge for me. The day I think, “I don’t want to get up and I don’t want to go out,” is the day I really need it the most. That’s when I push myself even harder to... get out of bed.’
She added: ‘I try to work out three times a week, whether that’s at home or in classes. I absolutely love going to classes, but I’m always the one shouting out in the middle of it because I’m so pumped up.’
