Former Coronation Street star Debra Stephenson is being lined up for the new series of I'm A Celebrity, Get Me Out Of Here!
The actress, who played Frankie Baldwin on the ITV1 soap, is close to signing a contract with the reality show. She hopes that a stint in the jungle will help her to draw a line under last year's rumours that she was having an affair with her Corrie co-star Bradley Walsh.
An ITV source told the Daily Star: "There was a rumour she was asked to do Strictly Come Dancing, but she's more tempted by our show."
Stephenson has previously appeared in BBC One's Comic Relief Does Fame Academy.
