Davina McCall, known for her role on The Masked Singer, is getting ready to tie the knot once again as she is now engaged to her partner, Michael Douglas. The couple, with Davina at 57 and Michael at 49, made the decision to get engaged just before attending the Burning Man festival in Nevada about three weeks ago. This news follows Michael’s recent statement to The Mirror, hinting at their upcoming plans for marriage.
Michael mentioned at the National Television Awards that wedding bells could be in their future, emphasizing that they are in no hurry and are simply enjoying each other’s company. Their love story began years ago when Michael started working on Davina’s hair during her time hosting Big Brother. They only made their relationship public in 2019 and eventually moved in together in 2023.
Supporting Davina through a challenging time, Michael stood by her side during her health scare, which involved surgery for a benign brain tumor last year. Before Michael, Davina had brief marriages with Andrew Leggett and later with TV presenter Matthew Robertson. They tied the knot in 2000 at Eastnor Castle in Herefordshire and had three children together before divorcing in 2018.
According to sources close to Davina, the couple kept their engagement a secret until this summer, with friends expressing their happiness for them. They described the past year as a rollercoaster ride for Davina, who found new strength and a fresh outlook on life after overcoming her health challenges. Michael has been a pillar of support for her during her recovery, and their chemistry is described as intense, akin to “lovesick teenagers.”
The couple’s decision to get engaged was influenced by a realization of life’s shortness and the importance of cherishing love. Their friends highlighted Davina’s perspective shift post-surgery and how she embraced the opportunity to solidify her relationship with Michael.
