    What in the actual f***. I had no idea this was something that Davina went through. Fair play to her

    I can’t imagine the trauma of that abandonment, especially as a child who has no way of processing this humongous loss. Davina is so articulate and self analytical, you can tell she has worked through her childhood pain and come out an admirable person. Great respect

    People are so brave to do these interviews, because for all the sympathetic viewers, I'm always disappointed to read the comments inevitably criticising and ridiculing people's experiences. Social media at it's worst, when we can learn so much from content like this. I have heard some of Davina's story before, glad Steven is always respectful to his guests.

    I was on a rehab wing in jail in 2000s and we used to have these seminars & one of the lads, Davina was his sponsor at Narcotics anonymous when he was out, & he got her to conference call about 100 lads, & we were asking her questions about recovery & she was having a laugh proper on a level bird, I always think about how nice that was of her, at the time she was massive doing Big Brother etc

    Omg I literally cried the whole time, not because it was sad, I cried because Davina is real, honest and raw! Her experience amd knowledge in life, you can't buy. Her trauma and recovery is so bloody inspirational ❤ It makes me feel empowered.
    To low to high to high to low, it's how you recover and go out and seek life with positive energy and determination! Divina I love you and I'm so happy I saw this podcast x ❤

      Hmm, this is life for a lot of people. I am glad you have never experienced this sort of life. Dont be jealous though.

    Thank you for this podcast! I lost my sister 18 months ago. Listening to Davina I cried all the time way through it! Definitely part of my healing process. I’m grateful you took time to air this one!! 👏👏

    Wow! I have never been a fan of Davina as I took her at face value (ott seeming attention seeker) but this podcast has completely changed my mind about her. Her tv persona may still not appeal to me but as an actual real life person I have a huge amount of respect for her and I like the Davina we see here.

    Davina is a star. Never knew her background but she grew through it.

    As an addict- at this very moment in time trying to decipher “HOW” to begin the process of quitting is quite often the biggest hurdle more so than any comedown or physical body ache one can experience. I still have no idea how or when I will commence… yet one thing you have given me during this dark moment I’ve encountered, is the light to know that life ain’t supposed to be perfect, But hope that light will shine through the other side … keep on moving… and walking…

    How Davina McCall never ended up Borderline Personality Disorder is anyone's guess, literally all the ingredients in her upbringing from her mom.

    I spent my childhood going between Paris and UK too. The two cultures are so different and not enough is recognised about the difficulties of bi cultural up bringing.

    I can relate to the listening to steps, and reading the parent so knowing how to behave!

    I feel i get a sense of who Davina is now after watching this . I, too, am half French and English and it's something I didn't know about her

  • @cheyennebutler6022

    I love how she sees it now that she's older, it taught her alot being with her mum and in some ways she is grateful for her lessons in that. I think if she was in her mum's care fulltime it might be a different story. The fact she could still have that stability from her dad's side is what helped her flourish and develop better and then she could do what she wanted with her mum and rich grandparents would have been cool for her at age 12+ etc.

    I feel bad. If I could give Davina a long, tight hug, I would

    I never liked Davina as a TV personality. I found her irritating, shrill and disingenuous; but she is a fascinating orator when reflecting on her life and career. It's like peeling back the curtain and seeing the real person for the first time.
