Davina McCall reckons British people need to be more open about intimacy saying: “Sex is one of the greatest gifts.”
The TV star, 51, separated from husband Matthew Robertson in November 2017.

“Sex, for example, is not a dirty word for them. It’s a fantastic thing between two consenting adults.”
And she says there is much more to her than relationships.
She added: “People assume you are sobbing into your pillow every night, but modern women have a lot of other stuff going on. We’re not just relationships. We’re parents, we are working women.
“Hitting the menopause was tough but at least it stopped people asking me when I was going to have another baby.”
Davina also opened up about her estranged relationship with her alcoholic mum Florence who died in South Africa in 2008.
She revealed how there were no boundaries in the relationship which meant they even ended up taking drugs with each other.
She said: “No one really knows what went on behind closed doors except my sister and I.
When I was young, being with mum, there were no boundaries. Wearing make-up, short skirts, high heels at 13, drinking...eventually, I even took drugs with her.
“I don’t blame her at all for my addiction, but it was screwed-up...not a normal mother-child relationship.
“Back then, I was just a kid and if I’m honest, I thought she was cool because my granny Pippy, and my dad never let me do any of that in England.
