Helen Flanagan is 'returning to I'm A Celebrity for All Stars series'

Helen Flanagan has reportedly signed up for the 'I'm A Celebrity All Stars' series.

The upcoming spin-off of the beloved ITV reality show will see previous contestants return for a special series in South Africa, and the former 'Coronation Street' actress is said to be back a decade after first appearing.

A source told The Sun newspaper: "Helen is an absolute catch for ITV and they are thrilled she is finally on board.

"It has taken months of negotiations because it's a big decision to spend so long away from her young children, but she has finally come around to the idea.

"She was brilliant telly back in 2012 and is board to be just as entertaining this time around - especially if she gets voted into doing the trials again."

The AGE-year-old star previously admitted she underestimated how difficult the experience would be when she first signed up in 2012, but viewers quickly picked up on her squeamish side and kept voting her to face various Bushtucker Trials.

She said: "When I signed up for 'I'm A Celebrity' I didn't take the trials into consideration because I didn't think I would do so many.

"I just thought I would maybe do one or two and thought I'd be fine.

"I thought I would just be in a bikini and make friends - I didn't think it would be so intense."

Other names linked to the series - which is set to air in 2023 - include the likes of 'Countdown' star Carol Vorderman, former 'EastEnders' actor Dean Gaffney and 2017 Queen of the Jungle George Toffolo.

Meanwhile, 'Changing Rooms' star Linda Barker recently admitted she'd "love" to be part of the show again, having first appearance in 2003.

She said: "That television programme was beautiful to be a part of. So yeah, I guess you never know until that phone rings."
