Faye Brookes is reportedly in a bidding war between 'Strictly Come Dancing' and 'I'm A Celebrity...Get Me Out of Here!' The 32-year-old soap star - who played Kate Connor on 'Coronation Street' until 2019 - is said to be wanted for the BBC Latin and ballroom dance competition due to her musical experience, while the ITV reality show bosses would expect her to dish the dirt on her ex-fiance Gareth Gates.
