Davina McCall has shared a positive health update following her brain surgery last year.
The Masked Singer judge confirmed in November that she had undergone surgery to remove a benign brain tumour, later updating fans on her recovery as she said that her "short-term memory really is improving a lot every day".
During a new interview with The Times, Davina shared another positive update, saying: "I reckon I've got another two or three months before I'm fully engergised."

She continued: "But I love work. I love life. I love dancing. Now I just want to do all those things as much as possible.
"I don't need a rest. I'm not tired. I want to live life now. Bucket lists are for when you are living. Buy the dress! Go to the party even if you are working and only going to get five hours' sleep."

While she's thankfully now on the road to a full recovery, Davina said that brain surgery "tested" her to "a new level".

"I just went somewhere in my head. I thought about it every single day between April and November 15," she shared.
"I ran daily. I got myself into the best possible health. I put on a couple of extra kilograms because [my doctor, Kevin O'Neill] said it would help me recover.
"I processed what was going to happen so I could get to a point where I could be at peace with going into the hospital and just letting go of the outcome."
However, Davina said that "everything is beautiful now", adding: "I walk around London and I see it like I've never seen it before."
The Masked Singer airs on ITV1 and streams on ITVX.
