Tilly McCall Reveals Davinas Tattoo Reaction!

's daughter Tilly Robertson revealed her mother had a very positive reacton to her getting a tattoo.

The TV presenter, 58, is mother to Holly, 24, Tilly, 22, and Chester, 19, with her ex-husband Matthew Robertson. 

Taking to her , Tilly uploaded a video chat she had with her mother as she showed off the new inking, which appeared to be on her lower back.

No Doubt's song Just A Girl played over the video but Davina could be seen mouthing the words: 'Oh, it's lovely'.    

Tilly captioned the video: 'Telling my mum that I got a tattoo EXCEPT she is the chillest mum ever and was so supportive.'

Davina previously said that fewer parents are suffering from 'empty nest syndrome' these days, as rising house costs mean children stay at home for longer.

The former Big Brother host said she's comforted by the knowledge they are part of the 'boomerang generation'. 

Now, after children initially leave for university, they tend to come back to stay in the parental home more frequently than before.   

Davina, now married to hair stylist , said she has no fears about Chester soon becoming the last to leave home. 

She said: 'I guess nowadays the proper empty nesting thing doesn't happen as much as it used to. I feel like kids come back all the time.

'My daughter went to Australia for three years. She's coming back for at least four months, which we're really excited about.

'My daughter Holly lives in Manchester now, but she comes down quite often.

'Chester is still really at home. He's taken a year out. He'll still be here until he's at least 20 and then he'll go to university. So it's nice. 

'I get to still really enjoy the kids but also enjoy a little bit of freedom again. I feel in a really nice place.'

Speaking on the Happy Mum Happy Baby podcast, Davina added: 'When Holly came out I was like, 'I never want to work again – she's just robbed me of all my ambition.'

'But at the same time all through their childhood I thought the goal for me is that my children walk away from me and never look back – not because they hate me, but because they feel confident in themselves and they are looking forward to going out and living their lives.

'I don't want to have somebody who's still clinging on to my ankle, worried, frightened, a bit scared of the world.'

But Davina's feelings are in stark contrast to those of Gavin And Stacey actor Larry Lamb, who said he was deeply affected by 'empty nest syndrome'.

He told the mental health podcast On The Mend: 'Just the other day I was thinking about this extraordinary moment when you say goodbye to your kids and they're going off to start their own lives. You will never forget it.'

Lamb – dad to George, 46, Eloise, 26, and Eva-Mathilde, 23 – has even penned a poem about his pain, with the lines: 'Can you hold back the tears? Not easy.

'But you have to not make them feel guilty for doing what you've spent your life preparing them for.

'But oh, the pain. Then the dam breaks, and the tears keep on coming, whenever you're reminded of that moment.'
