Davina McCall is reportedly engaged to her hairstylist boyfriend Michael Douglas – just weeks after she revealed she would never marry again.
The TV presenter was friends for years with celebrity hairdresser Michael, 47, but they only began dating after she finalised her divorce with ex-husband Matthew Robertson in April 2018.
They went public with their relationship in 2018 and by January 2023, Michael had moved in with her – and now, the smitten couple are reportedly set to tie the knot.
To ensure her loved ones were the first to know, Davina managed to keep the engagement and didn’t even tell ITV bosses.
Revealing her engagement, a friend of Davina’s said: ‘She has a ring but is only wearing it in private.’
‘It is wonderful news and everyone who knows them is just so thrilled. They really do make the most gorgeous couple,’ they told The Sun.

The friend said Davina had come to the conclusion that life is too short, one year on from her terrifying brain tumour ordeal.
An ITV source said: ‘Davina kept it a secret for a long time, she didn’t even tell ITV.
‘She isn’t someone who likes to talk about her private life much so she wanted to make sure all of her loved ones knew the news before she told anyone else.’
It’s a stark difference from Davina’s stance a month ago, when she said that she would never marry again.
Admitting that she’s isn’t looking to tie the knot again, she told The Mirror: ‘We go on honeymoons all the time but without getting married.
‘We’re in the honeymoon period even after all these years. I couldn’t be more happy.
‘And sometimes there’s an idea of, why change anything?’
Davina explained how her late father taught her that every successful relationship needs ‘friendship, attraction, trust and respect’.

She added: ‘And if any of those things are lacking, love can’t flourish. And I think he was absolutely spot on.’
She and Michael met when he styled her hair during her stint on Big Brother.
With so much in common, the pair stayed good friends until they realised they had romantic feelings for each other.
Davina was married to Matthew for 17 years, and had three children with him, Holly, Chester, and Tilly.
Previously she was married to Andrew Leggett from 1997 until 1999.
She was given the Special Recognition prize for her near three-decade long career on screen.
Davina received a standing ovation from the crowd at London‘s O2 Arena on Wednesday.

In an emotional VT, telly pals Dermot O’Leary, Alison Hammond and Claudia Winkleman opened up about their friendships as they heaped praise on her career.
It left Davina in tears as she collected the award from Hannah Waddingham.
Now, Davina has revealed the reason she was so emotional, opening up on her terrifying brain tumour ordeal that saw her go under the knife.
She told The Mirror: ‘Last year, I knew I had a brain tumour and I knew I was being operated on six weeks later, and I picked up the award which meant so much to me.
‘Everybody else knew why it meant so much to me, it just meant the world to me because I wasn’t sure where I was going to be six weeks later.’
