Davina McCall shares how she found lump in breast as presenter urges women to check themselves for cancer
Davina McCall has revealed her breast cancer diagonosis after finding a lump five weeks ago.
Posting on Instagram on Saturday (8 November), the presenter said the disease had been caught “very very early” after she first discovered the lump whilst sitting in the toilets at ITV, where she saw posters reminding people to check their breasts.
“I underwent a biopsy and it was indeed breast cancer and I had it taken out in a lumpectomy nearly three weeks ago.” she said.
She said she is “so relieved” to have it removed and that it hasn’t spread, and revealed she needs five days of radiotherapy to try and stop it from “never coming back”.
