Davina McCall: “I was doing cocaine with my mum at 15!”

Listen to this episode from The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett on Spotify. Davina McCall has been an icon of television for 40 years. The host of Big Brother for over a decade, tens of millions of people looked to Davina to bring a national obsession into their homes. But few know the real story of Davina. From a heartbreaking childhood that saw her take drugs with her mother to hosting one of the biggest shows in the world, she’s come a long way. At every step along her journey, no one was going to define her but herself. No matter how many times she got hurt no one could take away the one thing she could control, her resilience. Consistently breaking down barriers and forging new paths, Davina was the first female television host to put her bubbly and occasionally feisty persona front and centre, and she was the first mainstream figure to create a fitness platform that has inspired millions of people to get active in the fifteen years she’s been in the game. Having consistently inspired so many people in her life, she dropped by to gift us some of her inspiration too. Davina: Instagram - https://bit.ly/3GCcF7PTwitter - https://bit.ly/3XafyCp Davina's book:https://bit.ly/3WNHhc9Follow me:https://beacons.ai/diaryofaceo Learn more about your ad choices.
