Davinia Taylor reveals she’s en route to see her son Grey, 12, for the first time in FOUR months

Davinia Taylor took to Instagram to document her reunion with her 12-year-old son Grey on Monday, as she prepared to see him for the first time in four months.

The 42-year-old former Hollyoaks star, who is based in Málaga, was unable to see her eldest offspring – who is based in the UK with his dad Dave Gardner and stepmother Liv Tyler – due to the COVID-19 lockdown’s travel restrictions.

But on Monday, the actress revealed that she was en route to Barcelona to meet him, telling her followers: ‘Oh my god, I’m so excited! It’s stupid o’clock in the morning and I’m gonna go and get my son. I’ve not seen him for four months!

‘I’m gonna get Grey from Barcelona. I’m gonna spend the night with him in Soho House and have a nice meal, do a bit of bonding, good bit of chatting.

‘No doubt, he’ll just absolutely not give a t*ss, because he’s nearly 13. But I’m so excited and then I’m bringing him home to his brothers and his new dogs.’

As the mother-of-four arrived at Málaga–Costa del Sol Airport for her flight, she gushed about how empty it was, as she said: ‘So exciting. Oh my god, it’s just the most civilised way to travel.

‘It reminds me of how it must have been in the ’70s or the early ’80s, when not everybody travelled every day by plane. It’s just so empty.

‘There’s half the amount of terminals and you don’t even have to walk that far. It’s am absolute joy. And there’s no crowds or anything because of the two metre rule. Positively civilised.’

However, while things went swimmingly in the terminal, Davinia saw a delay in taking off, revealing in a later post: ‘I’ve had to get off the plan because it’s broke and board another one. Oh well.’

The TV personality, who recently unveiled her incredible weight loss transformation, made the most of her extended waiting time by exercising in the terminal.

Showing video of herself in action, she wrote: ‘Doing 200 lunges while waiting!!!! Burn some serious cals instead of gawping at the phone! Every opportunity!!’

As she later boarded the waiting Vueling aircraft, she reiterated her excitement, writing: ‘I’m ALWAYS last getting on the lane… not today!!! I’m that excited!!!!!’

On landing in the coastal city, Davinia checked into her elegant hotel suite, before sharing that she was going to get some rest before meeting Grey.

However, she was soon out and about, admitting: ‘Couldn’t resist it. I’m too busy in the head to sleep. So I’ve come out and I’m wandering the streets of Barcelona.

‘Obviously, looking for health food stores, See what gear they’ve got down here. It is beautiful.’

Her wandering soon took her to the gym, where she was seen working out as she prepared to be reunited with her offspring. 

On Friday, Davinia revealed that she was going to be reunited with her son, saying: ‘Yay! Spain are going to open their borders, so I can get my son over here.’

Back in April, Davinia shared a montage of pictures with Grey, as she admitted: ‘Missing my eldest this morning..it’s been weeks now since he got stuck in Miami! Thank god for FaceTime (even if it is begrudgingly!!)

‘Thank you @misslivalittle for being the best ever step mom and keeping him safe ! God knows what he’s doing without the premiership these days.’

Davinia is also mother to sons Luxx, nine, whose father she has never revealed, and Asa, six, and four-year-old Jude, with her partner Matthew Leyden. 

Her journey comes days after she shared her incredible weight loss transformation with snaps uploaded to Instagram on Friday.

The actress posted a before picture as she wore a grey vest top, figure-hugging leggings and a beige overcoat.

Alongside it, she posted an after snapshot as she flaunted her toned physique in a black bikini and sported a darker hair style.

Davinia uploaded the snaps with a lengthy caption that read: ‘What a difference a bit of #Biohacking makes !!! Detox, reduce inflammatory foods, run, sauna, supplement, wim Hof, Cold exposure, NAD+, nootropics, kombucha, Intermittent fasting, gut health ..all these protocols have helped me stay mentally healthy and if I do that the body follows suit !!! 

‘Think I’m pushing a size 16 there and then I’m down to an 8 (and maintained it for years !! No yo-yo or massive cravings either) All beings in the brain #brainhealth #goodfats #lowsugar #paleo [sic].’

Her transformation snaps come after she shared a ‘swollen’ bikini photo on Instagram to show what happens if she ‘eats too much’ but says it’s no big deal.

Telling her followers she is neither pregnant or overweight, Davinia revealed that she changes shape when she eats. She wrote on social media: ‘I know women who eat and they do not change shape… I am not one of them.

‘But I am super healthy, super fit and super ok with a bit of swelling while my Thai green curry, stivia chocolate, bottle of kombucha, coconut cappuccino, sourdough butty and handful of olive oil crisps digest!!!! 

‘However I do eat far too quickly!!!! Fret not if you have to undo your pants a bit as long as your not eating ultra processed foods you will digest, assimilate and excrete the tasty fuel regardless!!!! Enjoy your dinner #body #bodypositive #biohacking’.

Davinia looked incredible in her brown bikini as she posed in front of her mirror to show her followers her honest post.  

Davinia also said she was planning on giving a talk at on her Stories about inflammation. She said: ‘Inflammation is my big bug-bear. It brings water weight and what inflames one person doesn’t inflame another.

‘I’ll also be talking about the inflamed mind, as well. Depression.’
