Beverley Callard has tearfully admitted she’s ‘trying’ amid her cancer battle after being diagnosed with breast cancer

Beverley Callard has tearfully said she’s trying after a tough week.

The Coronation Street star was unable to make it to the live final of I’m A Celebrity…South Africa, but she admits things haven’t been the same since. The actress didn’t come to London due to her health.

She was gutted to have missed the rather dramatic final – but says staying up late for the filming has left her “wiped out”. Speaking in a new video update, Beverley revealed: “I’ve not posted for a few days because I stayed up really late on Friday night because I had to do a Zoom for the I’m A Celeb final.

“The internet went down half way through so I didn’t finish. Did my make-up and stuck my eyelashes on and all that and it was hardly worth it, but never mind. I was wiped for days – does anyone else feel like that with one late night? Is that what cancer does to you sometimes? I’m still waiting for my results which I hope to get Thursday. I’m trying, I’m trying. Thank you for all your messages.”

Beverley was forced to pull out of the final after medical advice. She told fans: “Yesterday, I should have flown to England to get ready for the I’m A Celeb final.”

In a video shared on her social media, the actress went on to add: “I was so excited and looking forward to it, but on medical advice, I can’t go, I am absolutely gutted.

“I was dying to see them all, and it would have been brilliant. I can’t go, and yesterday, the flights were booked and everything, but no, they said, it is basically too long a day with flying there and then a very late night, so here I am.

“I will be watching, and I will be on Zoom chatting to everybody. So I’ve got to make the best of a bad job, but I am resting, and I am doing as I am told. Thanks to everybody.”

Beverley had to leave the show earlier than hoped after losing consciousness.

“I just watched my exit on I’m A Celeb, and it made me cry all over again. Of course, I didn’t know then that I had cancer, but I just knew that it was the last couple of days there that I hadn’t felt very well,” she said.

“What happened was, I went into the Bush Telegraph, and apparently, I lost consciousness for a little while. I just wasn’t feeling myself. They took me to a medical hut, and they were amazing. They really looked after me, and they said, ‘You can’t go back.’ And I said, ‘Don’t say that, don’t send me home, I’ll be fine’. I wanted to succeed and make it through to the end, but that was the start of everything. It’s made me really emotional, but I will beat this. I will beat it.”
