ITV's Davina McCall makes huge career decision as she recovers from brain surgery

Resilient Davina McCall is set to carry on with her weekly podcast even while in recovery from brain surgery. The host of My Mum, Your dad has recently launched a new programme, 'Begin Again', and was determined not to allow the discovery of a brain tumour to interrupt its continuity.Before her six-hour operation on Friday, Davina, 57, managed to pre-record a full series of hour-long chats, guaranteeing her show would maintain its weekly release during her recovery.

Having premiered on October 9, Davina's popular podcast features in-depth dialogues with celebs such as Fearne Cotton, Paloma Faith, and Paul C Brunson, aiming to inspire listeners to see midlife as a period of significant change and growth.On her committed decision to keep the podcast on track amidst her health issues, a source shared with The Sun: "Begin Again is Davina's real passion project and there was absolutely no way she wanted its impact put on ice because of her surgery."There will be no break in the series run whilst she is out the spotlight. "Davina made sure everything was pre-recorded and put in place so what she feels are important conversations can continue whilst she recovers," the insider explained.

Last week, it was disclosed that Davina had been urgently taken to hospital for brain surgery. The Masked Singer judge underwent an operation to remove a benign brain tumour measuring 14mm, which she discovered during a health scan a few months ago while delivering a talk for a menopause company, reports the Mirror.

In a video update shared on Friday, Davina requested her fans to keep her in their prayers as her boyfriend Michael Douglas takes over her social media during her recovery period.
