Julia Bradbury has apparently agreed to appear in the upcoming season of The Real Full Monty.
The 53-year-old TV host is most known for hosting a number of outdoor walking shows on several TV networks, as well as co-hosting the BBC One show Countryfile with Matt Baker from 2004 to 2014.
Julia then disclosed in 2021 that she had been diagnosed with breast cancer and underwent a mastectomy later that year.
She has now shared her experience and recovery, as well as constantly advising people to inspect their breasts for anything out of the norm.
She is claimed to have signed up for the reality show in order to continue her attempts to promote awareness by stripping naked for charity.
‘Julia has been so inspiring, honest and real throughout her journey and so was a natural choice for ITV bosses in casting The Real Full Monty,’ a source told The Sun.
‘Julia calls herself a “cancer thriver” and she sees taking part as the embodiment of that — doing something bold and brave.
‘She jumped at the chance of being involved as she wants to do everything she can to encourage men and women to check themselves and be more open about their health.’
The source added: ‘While other members of the cast are dancers or performers, it won’t come as naturally for Julia — but that’s what will make her involvement all the more inspiring.’
Julia was diagnosed with cancer two months after discovering a tumour in her breast in July 2021.
Other renowned personalities rumoured to have signed up for the next season include Victoria Ekanoye, best known for her role as Angie Appleton in Coronation Street.
Meanwhile, Vanessa Bauer from Dancing on Ice and former royal butler Paul Burrell, who was diagnosed with prostate cancer last year, are rumoured to be participating.
Coleen Nolan, Christine McGuinness, James Jordan, Teddy Soares, and Brenda Edwards have all competed in the past.
The Real Full Monty is coming soon to ITV.
