Beverley Callard has given a health update ahead of her 'big operation' in a new post shared to Instagram on Wednesday amid her breast cancer battle. The Coronation Street legend, 68, received news of her diagnosis just after she relocated to Dublin having scooped a role on Irish soap opera Fair City. Lymph nodes are removed after a breast cancer diagnosis because cells that move beyond the breast often get trapped in the underarm. Last month, Beverley was forced to hit back at claims she was on weight-loss jabs after showing off her slim frame. Beverley confirmed that her incredible physique was not because of 'any weight loss jabs' but was just her hard work.
