TV presenter and mum-of-three Davina McCall is one busy lady. The 55-year-old was recently announced as the host of an upcoming ITV dating show, The Romance Retreat – a so-called “middle-aged” Love Island.
Davina, who coupled up with partner Michael Douglas in her fifties and pitched the new show to ITV, is unsurprisingly passionate about the project.
She’s now set to juggle this exciting venture with her other work commitments – her fitness platform Own Your Goals and her Making The Cut podcast, described as the ”TripAdvisor for your life”, which she co-hosts with hairdresser Michael.
So how does she find time to stay stylish, keep fit and launch a new clothing collection with Amanda Holden?
Here, the JD Williams ambassador gives us the lowdown on everything from romance in midlife to finding her style…
Davina, congratulations on the Romance Retreat gig. Did you feel there was a space for an older version of Love Island?
I felt it was so important that I wrote to ITV 18 months ago and I said, “You guys need to do a midlife dating show.” Also, I love Love Island.
Do you think it’s important that relationships in middle-age are well represented?
