And indeed, they included that letter in this week's issue on the page I mentioned earlier, along with the photo that was in The Sun on Monday (the article I previously linked to).

Or readers from my era (the 90s-00s) to be fair.

I wonder if we'll get any clues in the Beano during the next few weeks about this news or if we will definitely have to wait until March?

It wasn't just the cover, it was the info inside about him being a Dennis Fan Club member and long time reader. But of course long term fans already knew this piece of trivia, hence why it felt like a letdown. As has already been pointed out, that may not have been widely known among today's generation of kids.
