to wonder WTAF Davina McCall is thinking here?

As we know, men have affairs because of sex and underwear... its the woman's fault

[pettywitchinlondon]

Her twitter PIC is of her and husband as if every tweet is coming from a couple.

Didn't they both leave their other spouses hookup quickly and get married quickly?

[Mrsjayy]

You know she just needs to shush now nobody is interested in her sexlife or her how to keep a man pants why did the telegraph ask these questions anyway

[Greythorne]

What's surprising is that she is often presented as an intelligent woman who speaks two languages and has a very successful career. Her blog would refute any claim of intelligence.

What annoys me most is that honestly if it works for her and her man, well, why not. But going in a national newspaper and proclaiming their conservative, traditional and potentially oppressive relationship is something women and girls should ape is appalling.

[DosDuchas]

i heard her French once. Its er,,, stilted

[pettywitchinlondon]

Who on earth thinks she's smart?

Just reads other peoples words for a living

[Capricorn76]

I read the Daily Mail comments on this (I know, I know!) and it's enough to make you lose the will to live and I just know the best recommended comments about 'ugly fat jealous feminists with saggy grey underwear' are written by men who make zero effort and look more like Phil Mitchell than Henry Cavill.

You would be surprised how many times it's touted that DMC is smart, just because she has made $$$!

I don't think she is at all. Having met her and worked with her, I would say she has a very small niche in media that she has exploited terribly well.

[pettywitchinlondon]

I guess its quite common for celebrateees to be thought of as smart, they often try to tell people they are by claiming to be a business woman. When actually they are just lucky with their geans to have a pretty face and lucky with the opportunity's they've had / been born into.

[DosDuchas]

geans? stifles laugh

[Greythorne]

Never heard her speak French, only heard it touted that she is bilingual.

[angelos02]

To be fair...I bet there is some truth in what she says. I don't agree with it though. I know someone that is very ill, has been for years and told her v.attractive DH that she understood if he wanted to go elsewhere, he could, as long as he didn't fall in love with them. Again...sad but true.

[UmiSays]

Never before read her blog. She isnt very interesting or, um, quite as sharp as I had imagined.

[Greythorne]

Oh, the irony of the comments under her blog!

After she takes the time to spill on her personal life and philosophy on sex, loads of superfans telling her not to worry and no need to discuss her happy sex life with anyone else and after all, anyone can see she has a strong marriage and gorgeous kids.

Sigh.

[CordeliaFrost]

An interview from 2013...

I need to work hard at keeping hold of my gorgeous husband

She's clearly worried about something!

[chockbic]

I'd like to know if he walks around in a mankini or posing pouch, in return.

[shadypines]

Silly cow.

Sad to say they were actually discussing the shit of Loose Women (ok no surprises there) today. I had to turn off after two mins before my last remaining brain cell shrivelled up.

[shadypines]

Ooops what am I saying, meant 'this shit on Loose Women !!

[DosDuchas]

her daughter is thirteen! Rein it in mum

The article in full in Telegraph today - still says the same, even they comment she sounds like s 50s housewife

[WowProjectingMuch]

That's really rough on her daughter. What was she thinking!

Nothing wrong with kids knowing their parents have a sex life but there is a lot wrong with a parent discussing the cringy details in a newspaper.

[ByeFelicia]

True to form, a couple of half-wits on Hunsnet are championing Davina's position: a cheating man is, indeed, the fault of a woman "letting herself go" and not giving him a shag when he demands. Of course, I went on there purely for research purposes

[ByeFelicia]

Apologies, that should read Nethuns

[BabyMurloc]

“Matthew has strong views on underwear,”

That's just wierd

“You must keep your husband satisfied in the bedroom department,” she added, “even if you’re absolutely exhausted. Otherwise he will go somewhere else.”

If I tried to "satisfy my husband" whilst I was exhausted he would go mental and ask me wtf I was doing and why wasn't it sleeping...

[PHANTOMnamechanger]

the other interviews linked to on here show her to be deeply insecure. It's all about keeping him. (She knows he is a cheat, after all, he left his wife for her!) She worries about flirty fans etc. What happened about marrying someone for their complete self and loving the person they develop into in their lifetime with you, it is not all about the sex and your looks staying just as they were years ago.

[BalloonSlayer]

I've only got this from what I have read upthread, but IF she earns more money than him, and IF she works longer hours than him because her career is more successful, it's possible that he may spend more time with the children than she does. So perhaps she's worried that if they break up he'll get half her money and the lions share of the kids' time.

Hope that's not the reason.
