She told First magazine: "I think I probably had sex too young. And indeed with somebody that, given the proper education, I may have had the strength to say ’no’ to."

The presenter has been open about her troubled childhood - which saw her live with her grandparents after her parents divorced - and then to London to live with her dad and his second wife.

She said: "I lived in a small village and went to a girls’ school. I don’t think I’d ever seen a boy. Suddenly I was thrust into London life. It was thrilling."

The 39-year-old is now set to set to host Let’s Talk Sex, a new Channel 4 show exploring the crisis of teen pregnancies and spiralling rates of sexually transmitted infections in the UK.

Davina slates Sinatra? - Jan 22 2007
Big Brother presenter Davina McCall is already getting stick for her "soft" interview with Jade Goody - and now it seems she’s set to face the wrath of Frank Sinatra fans.

The 39-year-old is about to reveal that Old Blue Eyes is her pet hate, calling him a "pub singer" on BBC2’s Room 101, the Daily Express reports.

"He can’t sing, he’s out of tune and he’s ruined my karaoke evenings for the rest of my life with all those people singing My Way and New York, New York," she reportedly moans to host Paul Merton.

"If you had Frank in the X Factor, there’s no way he would get anywhere, not even past the auditions! He’s a pub singer.

"I can’t listen to him. I can’t believe that his music was so popular. He was probably like a boy band person who didn’t have much talent." Ouch!

Davina is ’biggest flop of 2006’ - Dec 15 2006
Davina McCall’s BBC One talk show has been named the TV’s biggest flop of the year.

Trade magazine Broadcast has panned the Big Brother host’s chat show after it attracted an average of just 2.6 million viewers.

The show was launched in February but ended in April, after struggling in its mid-week slot.

Davina, 39, was disappointed the show wasn’t a hit and was mortified when critics said she was "out of her depth".

The list of the biggest TV flops of the year also included Philip Schofield’s series, It’s Now Or Never, which was axed after just one episode.

The show, which saw contestants surprise a friend with an impromptu song and dance number in a public place, received terrible reviews and low ratings.

But there is good news for Davina. Big Brother 7, won by Pete Bennett, was named one of the successes of the year, along with The Apprentice and Strictly Come Dancing.
