Davina McCall shares a throwback snap with Tom Jones taken 30 YEARS earlier

Davina McCall gave her fans a blast from the past on Wednesday, when she took to Instagram to share a cute throwback to Tom Jones.

The presenter, 54, posted an image taken nearly 30 years earlier alongside a recent photo featuring the music legend, 82, after they ran into each other at ITV’s autumn launch earlier this month.

Davina captioned the post: ‘I came across this #ledgend at an @itv event recently and it reminded me of a photo of us from nearly 30 years ago.’

She added: “I was really fangirling back then, and here we are still doing what we love…and I’m still fangirling. yayyy!! @realsirtomjones love and huge respect.’

Of course, both Davina and Tom are regulars on ITV screens, serving as judges for The Masked Dancer and The Voice UK respectively.

It comes after Davina admitted she is experiencing a “second spring” after the changing responsibilities that come with aging have allowed her to go out with her friends again into the wee hours.

How old? The presenter, 54, posted an image taken nearly 30 years earlier alongside a recent photo with the music legend, 82, after they crossed paths at ITV’s launch in the fall.

The star has spoken openly about aging and going through menopause, saying that as her kids Holly, 21, Tilly, 19, and Chester, 16 get older, she’s reconnected with her more youthful side.

She said wife&home: ‘So many of my friends are going to dance again. Before, maybe once a year, but now I go out a lot and I’m home at 2 am.

She said, “I can sleep until 10 a.m. because my kids sleep until 12 noon, and I enjoy it.

‘It’s like getting a new life. The Chinese call it the second spring and that is a very nice concept. You never have to get old.

“I think there has been a shift in society’s expectations about women of a certain age. There is no longer a ‘certain’ age. We can do whatever we want.’

Davina said menopause has been a great rebirth for her, adding: ‘We all owe it to younger women to get out there and live our best lives’.

It comes after Davina started saying she felt “unappealing” while experiencing severe menopausal symptoms.

The former Big Brother hostess, who now takes HRT to control her symptoms, recalled experiencing night sweats, dry skin and brain fog and admitted she didn’t feel “sexy” anymore.

Davina, who was perimenopausal at age 44, spoke with The fantastic magazine of the sun about how the changes in her body affected her sex drive, as she was constantly “exhausted” from waking up at night due to her symptoms.

Davina told the publication, “I’ve lost something of myself. I changed. I couldn’t say exactly how I had changed, but I certainly had changed. I didn’t feel myself.

“I felt spectacularly unattractive during my sweaty nights and my sore, dry vagina and my dry skin — and my brain fog. None of this made me feel sexy.

“Being menopausal can be a very lonely place. You can feel like you’re the only one in the world who feels this way, and that no one understands what you’re going through.’

Davina explored menopause in a documentary titled Sex, Mind and the Menopause – the sequel to her 2021 program Sex, Myths and the Menopause.

The show delved into more of the burning issues raised in its first documentary, including myths about menopause and the taboo surrounding HRT.
