EXCLUSIVE BB star cuts short her hol as tot is stricken Dramatic dash to see specialist in Harley Street

DISTRAUGHT Davina McCall made a dramatic dash back from holiday to seek urgent medical help for her sick baby son.

The Big Brother presenter cut short a family break in Mauritius when eight-month-old Chester suffered breathing difficulties.

Frantic Davina and hubby Matthew Robinson whisked their tot to a Harley Street specialist who got the problem under control.

A source said: "They were beside themselves with worry about Chester."

The couple were relaxing before mum-of-three Davina hosts the eighth series of BB starting on May 30.

They had already cancelled two holidays because they were worried about Chester.


When the problem flared up again in Mauritius last week they raced home five days early.


The source said: "It meant a rather unsatisfactory end to Davina's last family holiday before her busy summer schedule.


"But the only thing on her and Matthew's mind was the health of their child."


The tot was found to be suffering from severe bronchitis and asthma.


"Chester's health is still being monitored closely but the specialist has allowed him to stay at home," the source added.


Chester is 39-year-old Davina's third child by Pet Rescue presenter Matthew, 37. They have daughters Holly, five, and Tilly, three.


Davina - voted number 10 among the nation's yummy mummies - was heavily pregnant with Chester during the last series of Channel 4's reality show.


He weighed an astonishing 10lb 2oz and Davina described the home birth as "orgasmic".


The star, who has a £2million house in Woldingham, Surrey, has said: "Being a mum is the best thing that happened to me."


Davina, who battled addiction in her 20s, also declared that having three children "knocked spots off any drug I've ever taken".


She said: "When those babies popped out I wanted to stand naked on the highest mountain and roar with pride."


The joy of her domestic life was overshadowed by the need to have a police guard at home when Big Brother makers Endemol received threatening calls.


But now with her son safely at home she is looking to fresh BB triumphs
