ex-husband Matthew co-parent their children Holly, 17,
Tilly, 15 and Chester, 12.

Could it be an indication that the bad times are well and
truly in her past and she’s now ready to embrace the future?
She revealed, ‘Matthew is quite hands-on, so I have
support from him. We share the school
runs in the morning, which is really nice.
I won’t deny that it feels quite full on
when I’m on my own, though.
‘Now that Tilly’s nearly 16, I can go out
and leave her and Chester at home for
the evening, which has made quite a
difference. I’m finding my new normal.’SAUCY CONFESSIONS

with him having worked on her
hair – and she once called him ‘one
of my favourite people’.
However, their romance
reportedly only began at the end

Davina’s mates think Michael is a
really good guy.’A HAPPY PLACE
Davina often posts about her fitness regime on
Instagram, but she’s also recently been sharing
selfies and videos telling her followers how happy
she is in her personal life.
In one picture where she’s seen enjoying the sunshine

meeting smiling from ear to ear listening to banging tunes.’
She added, ‘Oh my goodness... I’m in a very happy
place right now.’

happy when I’m unhappy on social media, but I’m really
happy at the moment, I’m in a really good place.’
