Speaking on her podcast Making The Cut, Davina – who went public with Michael in the summer of 2019 – admitted, “I’m really enjoying doing new things as a new couple because we’re new to living together.
“It’s quite nice to do new traditions, because we did that before Christmas, we sat down and talked about it, ‘okay, spaces, what should we do tradition from now on?’
The couple then explained that the first of their traditions as a cohabiting couple was to watch The King’s Speech together on Christmas Day afternoon.
Davina admitted: “My grandma and father were ardent royalists; My sister was a passionate royalist.

“I have to admit I’ve never really seen the Queen’s speech but I was really interested in seeing the King’s speech this year because it was the first.
“I loved it because Rebecca stood up and said hello because that’s what my dad would have done and I loved her for it. I really enjoyed seeing it. Let’s turn this into a new tradition of living together.”
Davina confirmed the end of their 17-year marriage in November 2017, telling Web: “I am very sad to say that Matthew and I have split.
“Our amazing children are our number one priority, above all else, so we ask the media for as much space and respect as possible while our family is going through this difficult time.”
The former couple share three children, Holly, 21, Tilly, 19, and son Chester, 16.
