The 69-year-old soap legend, who played Liz McDonald in Corrie, revealed in January that she had been diagnosed with breast cancer. Beverley has since undergone surgery to remove her lymph nodes as doctors worked to determine whether the cancer had spread. Following her operation in March, she had expected to receive her results within four weeks but was informed that there had been a delay. However, in a fresh update, Beverley, who is currently starring on I’m A Celebrity South Africa, finally has her results.

However, she also confirmed that cancer cells were found in one of her lymph nodes. “They’re pleased with how the surgery went. And they also have two or three lymph nodes.

And they took three, and the cancer is in the first lymph node. It’s not in the second two and three. So it is there, but it’s only small.” Beverley revealed the next move is to “send it to America to see how aggressive the cancer is”. She said she should “know about that in approximately two weeks” and has to wait again. If the cancer comes back as “aggressive”, she will “have to undergo chemo first and then after that, radiotherapy”. However, if it isn’t “aggressive”, Beverley will have her radiotherapy as planned. She added: “So in one way it was kind of good news that the surgeries worked well which I’m really pleased about but because it’s in the lymph nodes it’s still a worry and still a waiting time which is an absolute pain but there we go and I’m sure loads of you have been through the same thing so that’s the state of play and thank you for caring I really appreciate that very much indeed and what you say to me and the comments you make.” View this post on Instagram A post shared by Beverley Callard (@beverleycallard) ‘Wishing you the best’ Fans rushed to the comments section to offer their support. “You are a warrior woman.
