Discussing life after 50, Davina told Women's Health: 'I don't look as good naked as I did in my twenties. But I feel better, and that's the difference.

'I walk around like a foxy minx now because I feel like a foxy minx. 

'Women over 50 feel sexy, we can dress sexily and we can wear underwear and we still enjoy orgasms...

'People say, "Oh, it's all gone…menopause…you're finished with your wizened, dried-up ovaries." I feel like it's really important to say that people in their fifties are having the time of their lives.'

On being classed as an 'older' woman, the TV presenter admitted: 'I feel like whenever people start trying to put me in that box, it makes me want to be really naughty.

The podcast host - who has had her nipple re-pierced - recalled: 'I pierced my nipple when I was 24 or 25 and I really liked it. Then, it was, like, very avant- garde.'

Davina - who famously lost a notable amount of weight following the end of her marriage to Matthew - admitted there is a 'story behind the sadness' of her divorce diet. 

She said: 'It's called the divorce diet, where you just literally shed . It happens to so many people I know. It was nothing I did. I was just running on adrenaline.

'Quite a few people and were like, "I think she's having a hard time, maybe we should lay off." But there were lots of people who didn't.

'There are some really mean people out there and there are also some very uninformed people who don't think about the story behind the sadness.'
