British TV presenter Davina McCall has undergone neurosurgery to remove a colloid cyst – a type of benign brain tumour.
McCall was diagnosed with the tumour by chance. In an Instagram video posted in November 2024, she explained:
A few months ago, I did a menopause talk for a company and they offered me a health scan in return, which I thought I was going to ace. But it turned out I had a benign brain tumour called a colloid cyst, which is very rare – three in a million.
