In a recent interview, the veteran presenter suggested that she was left disappointed when she lost out on the opportunity to host the revival of the Channel 4 dating show 'Streetmate'.
She served as host on the show for three years from 1998 and was seemingly keen to get involved in the reboot, but the job ultimately went to Gogglebox star Scarlett in 2017.

She told Closer magazine: "It was so fun doing it again, and Channel 4 were like, 'Let's bring it back!' Two days before they announced its revival, bosses told me they were going with Scarlett."
She continued: "I was like, 'No!' but Scarlett presented it. It was tried out, and it didn't go (well), so I was like, 'We have to let go of that now'."
In her old '90s role, Davina acted as a matchmaker as she travelled to the UK's high streets to send unsuspecting people on blind dates. When her stint on the show came to an end, Holly Willoughby hosted a revival in the 2000s.
Over her three-decade career, Davina has established herself as one of the UK's best-loved presenters, hosting popular shows such as Big Brother, Long Lost Family, The Masked Singer, and My Mum Your Dad.
She's also struck out into the world of health and fitness, releasing a series of DVDs, a range of exercise equipment, and a platform known as 'Own Your Goals'
In other news, Davina has made a confession about her relationship with boyfriend Michael Douglas, highlighting something that she "looks forward" to the most.
In an episode of the Making the Cut podcast, they shared that they'd met with Joel Dommett and his wife, Hannah Cooper. During this encounter, they played a game in which each person chooses a song and describes how it links to a memory.
Davina admitted that she was looking forward to learning more about her partner, saying: "Because we're going to be together for the rest of our lives. I'm really looking forward to hearing all of the stories to all the songs."
She went on to disclose that Michael had created a playlist of songs to assist her when she recently underwent brain surgery. Her operation came after a benign colloid cyst was discovered during a health check.
Speaking in an interview on BBC'sThe One Show with Alex Jones and Vernon Kay, Davina revealed that she felt "so happy to be back" at work following her surgery.
