Davina McCall is taking things ‘nice and slow’ with her return to fitness as she continues to recover from her brain tumour surgery.

The Masked Singer judge underwent a craniotomy on November 15 after a random health check revealed she had a benign mass.

Davina, 57, has been keeping fans updated with her health and recently showed off her scars as she got her first post-op haircut.

She was initially taken to ICU as a ‘precaution’ while she recovered from surgery but is now bouncing back well as she takes on exercise.

In her home gym, Davina grinned for the camera before pointing out various muscles on her body and dancing a little.

In an Instagram post, the TV star revealed she was ‘back training’ and has been ‘walking daily’ to rebuild her muscles.

‘Yesterday I did 15 minutes in the gym… just to see,’ she said. ‘I’ve lost a lot of muscle so gonna eat really well and train hard !!’

Davina, who appeared as a surprise contestant on the Christmas episode of The Masked Singer, has released multiple fitness videos and her own range of exercise equipment.

She also has a fitness community called Own Your Goals Davina which is currently promoting a new six-week strength and sculpt challenge with fitness coach Richard Callender.

Speaking about this, the TV icon said: ‘This @‌ownyourgoalsdavina challenge has come at the perfect time … feels quite humbling … but in a good way.

‘Taking everything nice and slow… really listening to my body… #strengthandsculpt… 20 mins with @‌richcallender on OYG … who is with me?’

Davina had a colloid cyst which was ‘very rare’ and 14mm wide, previously revealing it ‘needed to come out’ as it ‘would be bad’ if it was allowed to grow.

According to the NHS, non-cancerous brain tumours are more common in people over the age of 50, and symptoms include headaches, vision problems and drowsiness.

In November, her partner Michael Douglas revealed she planned to ‘recuperate’ until mid-January but for the time being her body was ‘forcing her to rest’.

The former Big Brother host’s head had to be shaved in some sections for the surgery but she already has baby hairs growing in, which her hairdresser partner pointed out.

Davina also said she was feeling ‘a lot more myself’, emphasising how ‘grateful’ she is for the experience.
