Davina, 57 documented her journey with fans and at the end of last year had the benign mass removed. Supporting her throughout the ordeal was her partner Michael, 49, who was Davina’s hairstylist friend of 20 years prior to their romantic relationship.

The pair has been together since 2019 – two years after her split from husband Matthew Robertson – and now Michael, 49 has revealed that they have discussed marriage. ‘We’re big fans of stepping out into the unknown so I think there’ll be a bit of that going on this year. We’ll be trying some new things and seeing what happens,’ he told Closer.

When asked if a proposal could be on the cards he replied with a coy answer. ‘I don’t know,’ he said. ‘We often talk about it, but I don’t think so. What I love about us is we’re not tied to each other and that’s what keeps us there in a way.
‘There’s something nice about being independent people so we’re working out what it would mean for us to be married and if it’s something we should do and if we need to do it or not. ‘I actually don’t know the answer and neither does she, but it’s a funny thing that is hovering around us all the time.’.
