Davina McCall continued to show off her new haircut on Monday, after stylist boyfriend Michael Douglas lovingly cut her locks.
The TV presenter, 57, was treated to a new do – her first since her surgery to remove a rare benign tumour on her brain – and appeared delighted with the results as she joined her handsome partner, 50, for an Instagram Live.
The couple beamed and packed on the PDA in the fun clip as Michael poked fun at Davina who modelled a new pair of red trousers.
She couldn’t wipe the smile off her face and was in stitches as she gave her partner of five-years an impromptu fashion show.
On Sunday, Michael explained he wanted to pamper the former Big Brother host as he shared the entire haircut on Instagram, to show fans his techniques and tips.
During the pampering session Davina revealed having children caused her to lose a lot of her hair, as she opened up on whether she would ever get Botox again.

She also showed off her scar for the first time and said: ‘It’s all healed, it’s a bit crusty’ but mourned the loss of hair around it, saying ‘we lost a big chunk here’ and lamenting it would take ages to grow back.
But Michael assured his partner that hair grows around ’15cm a year’, and insisted that ‘by this time next year, you won’t notice’.
He then showed her longer locks and said: ‘People think you’ve got really thick hair but it’s actually quite thin’ as Davina turned around with mock outrage, to yell: ‘What!?’
She then admitted she hadn’t got much hair, but it was thick as Michael amended: ‘The strands are pretty thick, but you haven’t got loads of hair.’
The former Big Brother host explained she used to have lots of hair until falling pregnant with her three children, Holly, 23, Tilly, 21, and Chester, 18.
She sadly said: ‘I did have [thick hair]. But I had babies,’ before joking: ‘They took my hair! They put it on their own heads – they’ve all got lovely hair.’
Michael then cut in a stylish fringe for Davina, talking through the process to watching fans, one of whom joked in the comments: ‘A fringe is cheaper than Botox’.
Davina laughed as she agreed and explained how despite having had Botox before, she wouldn’t choose to get it again as it was ‘important I can move my eyebrows’ for her job.

She responded: ‘You are absolutely right. I’ve got lots of wrinkles in my forehead. I mean I can’t and I don’t have Botox. I have had it before, like in my frown lines.
‘But when I’m doing shows like Long Lost Family, the people I’m talking need to know how I’m feeling. I can tell them how I’m feeling with my face, I can emote.
‘So it’s important that I can move my eyebrows. But a fringe really helps soften your forehead.’
Throughout it all, she was in high spirits, looking very loved-up with Michael as the pair share a kiss mid-cut and teased each other.
The couple have been dating since 2019, but during the video the Davina explained that they had first met 20 years earlier when he had cut her hair for the first time.
At one point in the livestream, Michael pulled her hair to cut some layers in at the front and the TV star could be heard drawing in her breath and wincing as he quickly apologised to her for being too rough.
As she reassured him it was fine, the hairstylist cheekily said to the camera: ‘I was a bit rough there – she normally likes it rough’, causing Davina to giggle: ‘Michael Douglas you are naughty!’
As the couple discussed their health, Michael admitted that he has also suffered from hair loss due to recent stress worsening his alopecia, and showed off his bald patches to the camera.

Michael joked that he had impressed himself with the cut, as before Davina had looked ‘awful’, before gushing it had been ‘a pleasure’ to do her hair.
Davina has been very candid about her health scare and gave an emotional update in an Instagram video on Thursday, as she urged others to get private health checks if they can afford it.
The My Mum Your Dad presenter had her tumour picked up at a private clinic after she was offered a health check following her taking part in a talk about menopause.
Discussing her progress after the surgery, she explained: ‘I really feel a lot more myself now. I feel way better.
‘My sense of gratitude is growing by the day, I’m crying a bit less which is good. I’m really looking forward to Christmas.
‘I want to talk about the place I did my health check. I didn’t sing about it from the roof tops is it costs more than most people could afford. It’s expensive – BUT it did save my life. But it is prohibitively expensive for most.

‘The NHS also offers loads of other checks too. So get them – get the health check. Preventative medicine is better than reactive medicine.
‘Eat well, do exercise, be less stressed. I just feel so grateful now. I’d like to say a massive thank you to all the staff at the clinics – I’m pretty sure you saved my life.’
She then penned in the caption: ‘I understand that for most of my followers having a private health check isn’t financially viable. But I do really believe that @onewelbeck deserve a special mention.
‘They were the company that gifted me the health check in return for the talk I gave them, and that health check quite possibly saved my life. I owe Rupal and Simi a special debt of gratitude for guiding me through what has been a mad year.
‘I interviewed @drchatterjee recently and he said that the tough times he’s faced have always ended up being blessings of some sort … and I definitely feel this whole experience is a blessing.
‘The love I feel for life, my family, my partner, nature, sun, rain, wind… everything… it’s overwhelming at times… and I totally understand how lucky I was to get this health check… but there were many health checks that I skillfully ignored, when I got letters from @nhsengland offering them…. so what I’m saying is DO THE NHS HEALTH CHECKS … they r free ! BTW x thank you , for all the messages and support … big hugs.’
