The actress who plays Liz McDonald is said to have signed up following her departure from the soap.
According to the Mirror, an insider revealed: "Everyone was thrilled when Bev said yes, she is such a well-loved ITV face."
John Barnes

Rumoured to be taking part in last years series, former footballer John Barnes never made it to the jungle but it seems he's a bookies favourite to make an appearance this year.
Speaking to RadioTimes.com he said: "I've done a few shows. I've been on Family Fortunes and The Brightest Family. I did Strictly Come Dancing 10 years ago, but Dancing on Ice with my age and the injuries I've had, I don’t think so. The Jungle would be good!"
It's also reported that Barnes said: "To be honest, there’s nothing that I wouldn’t eat or anything I wouldn’t do...I’m fairly easy-going, if they asked me to do something, I'd do it. And from the point of view of eating anything, I eat everything and anything, so I’d probably be ideal for the show."
"The only fear I have is of sharks so by saying this I’m sure they’re going to put me in a tank with sharks but I guess that’s the nature of the game...but everything else I would be fine with."

After quitting Strictly Come Dancing as a pro-dancer, AJ Pritchard is rumoured to be joining the jungle family.
A source told The Sun : "AJ has a huge fanbase from Strictly, and he’s really grateful for the opportunity it afforded him but he is keen to show people that there is a lot more to him."
Eric Cantona

If there's any truth in this rumour, it would be a truly incredible sign up for the I'm A Celeb show bosses.
It's said that ITV are working desperately to have the Manchester United legend agree to take part. Show producer Richard Cowles said: "I just like the idea of Eric Cantona talking in French and coming up with really profound things."

Speaking to the Radio Times, TV presenter Richard Madely spoke about how he previously wouldn't have taken part in the series but would now consider it if the opportunity came his way.
He said: "It's just, it's a month. It's a good month out of your life. When I did The Circle I was only out of circulation for a total of 7 or 8 days. Like most people, I'm quite busy and I've got a lot going on.
"So if they ask me next year, I will think about it seriously, but I'd really have to have a look at my diary really and see how it would impact work. I would think carefully about it and if I could make room for it."
Charles Ingram
This would be a particularly controversial casting for the show, but one that would certainly have us all watching.
Ingram has recently returned to the spotlight ever since the story of his coughing scandal on Who Wants to Be a Millionaire resurfaced in the ITV drama, Quiz.
His odds in the bookies are 3/1 making him a very likely contestant.
Ladbaby
YouTube star and blogger Mark Ian Hoyle, more famously known as Ladbaby is a current favourite to be heading down under.
Famous for his videos on his experience as a father and his novelty cover songs with his wife Roxanne, Ladbaby is seeing odds of 1/4 to join the show.
Matt Baker

He added: "Yes, I'd go and do it. Never say never to that!"
Ronnie O'Sullivan
