Beverley Callard swaps Norfolk home as Ima Celebrity heads to South Africa
Beverley Callard is swapping her Norfolk life in Loddon for a South African game reserve to compete in the latest I’m A Celebrity All Stars, and ima celebrity will return to television screens when the series streams on weeknights from April 6 ET. The show was pre-recorded in South Africa and shot in September, with a live final from London on April 24 ET.
Beverley Callard, Loddon and her move from Salford ahead of Ima Celebrity
Beverley Callard moved to Loddon in 2022 from Salford and has lived in Norfolk since, a detail that frames her decision to take part in I’m A Celebrity All Stars. Callard briefly moved to Ireland to join the cast of Fair City but returned to the east in February to receive cancer treatment from the Norfolk and Norwich University Hospital.
She first shared the news that she had been diagnosed with breast cancer while on the Late Late Show in Ireland on February 6 ET. Callard first competed in I’m a Celebrity in 2020, a series that took place in a Welsh castle because of the coronavirus pandemic.
I’m A Celebrity All Stars filmed in South Africa with Ant McPartlin and Dec Donnelly
The series was pre-recorded in South Africa and the latest run was shot in September, hosted by the duo Ant McPartlin and Dec Donnelly. Producers returned to a game reserve setting for the all-star edition, and Callard will be one of the former contestants taking part in challenges recorded there.
Callard’s participation joins the roster of established names who have previously appeared on the programme, and her return to a filmed format echoes her first appearance in the 2020 series that was relocated to a Welsh castle.
Streaming schedule: April 6 ET weeknights and April 24 ET live final from London
The show will stream on weeknights from April 6 ET, with a live final aired from London on April 24 ET to determine the series winner. Broadcasters plan nightly episodes during that run, and the schedule sets the timeline for when viewers will see Callard on screen again.
For Callard, who spent time in Ireland and returned to Norfolk for treatment, the confirmed broadcast dates — April 6 ET and April 24 ET — mark the next public milestones tied to her participation in the special all-star series.
Callard’s move from her Norfolk home to a South African reserve closes the immediate chapter of preparation and travel, and the confirmed streaming start on April 6 ET provides the public date when her return to the series will be visible. For now, the season already filmed in September awaits its weeknight run and a live final from London on April 24 ET.
