Cheryl Tweedy has reportedly been approached about taking part in the second series of The Celebrity Traitors.
The 42-year-old singer has taken over a year out of the spotlight following her 2024 reunion tour with Girls Aloud in memory of late bandmate Sarah Harding.
Tweedy has also been privately mourning the loss of her ex-partner and father to her son, Liam Payne, who tragically died in October 2024 after falling from a hotel balcony.
According to The Sun, producers on The Celebrity Traitors are hoping to tempt her back on to screens and have made her an offer to take part in the show, which is due to be filmed this Spring.
“Cheryl is taking baby steps about returning to the limelight,” a source told the newspaper. “Bosses know she would be a huge draw.
“They think she would be brilliant at playing the game – especially as she is so straight-talking.
“Of course, filming over several weeks would take her away from her son, which could be a reason she turns it down. Bookers are keen for the best stars to take part and not reality-TV has-beens.”
Other names said to be in the frame include Gavin & Stacey‘s Ruth Jones, actor Danny Dyer and This Morning host Alison Hammond.
