Davina McCall would like an emotional reaction to her death when the dreaded day comes, please and thank you.
The former Big Brother host was dragged into a cruel but hilarious TikTok prank over the festive season, in which people jokingly tell their parents and family members that their favourite celebrities have died.
From Sir Rod Stewart to the whole of Take That being killed on a tour bus, despite not being on tour, no celebrity has been safe from the prank.
The reactions have provided hours of laughs, though, as parents have jumped out of their seats in shock and screamed in devastation as they believe they have lost their beloved Cher or Oprah Winfrey.
One family went viral for their reactions to the fake death of 55-year-old Davina, garnering over 800,000 views on their vid.
‘Oh my God, Davina McCall found dead, 55’, TikTok user @atilla.the.hunty begins telling his relatives.
Three people, who appear to be his parents and grandmother, all gasp, suddenly in no mood to celebrate with the champagne in their hands.
‘This happened last time I had Christmas here,’ the dad said.
‘When George Michael died,’ he added, before the mum chimed in: ‘Bit different.’

Hundreds of amused followers commented on the clip, with one being Davina herself.
Taking the prank in good spirits, the TV presenter commented: ‘Tbh I need more of a reaction than that’, followed by a crying laughing emoji.
Well, Davina has got a point. We would’ve liked a tear or two if it were us!
Davina’s fans loved her response, though, hailing her an ‘icon.’

‘Personally I’d be in pieces’, assured another.
