Helen Flanagan struggles on flight to Bali as she reunites with kids
Helen Flanagan struggled on a 16-hour flight to Bali as she reunited with her kids after spending Christmas apart.
The former Coronation Street star admitted it was “weird” being away from her three kids Matilda, seven, Delilah, five, and Charlie, two, as they were spending Christmas Day with their dad and Helen’s ex-fiancé Scott Sinclair. The 33-year-old finally reunited with her children on Wednesday, as they prepared to jet off to Bali for a special holiday to ring in the New Year.
Posing with her kids and a close pal at the check-in desk, Helen revealed they were excited to be spending time together after a tough few days apart. Wearing a pair of grey shorts and a hoodie, the actress beamed as she held her youngest daughter Delilah in her arms, while her friend carried Charlie, and Matilda stood on the luggage trolley to pose for the photo.

Sharing a clip of her with Charlie sat on her lap, Helen looked exasperated as she tried to get comfortable with her toddler. Just a few minutes later, she posted another video, showing Delilah on her knee while little Charlie slept soundly on the seat next to her.
Helen then shared a short clip showing her cradling Charlie as she assured one of her daughter’s that they were “going to the hotel in a minute”. The former I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here star then wrote atop the video: “20 million hour flight done. Charlie was a dream, it was really hard work all the other flights this year but my boy is 3 in March so starting to watch films and wear headphones.”

The actress spent seven days without them, and confessed she felt “weird without the kids” this year, but vowed to have a different experience in 2024. “Wasn’t really feeling Christmas this year, felt weird without the kids but next year I’ll be festive,” she wrote, as she shared snaps from the last week.
In one snap, she revealed she had “drank too much” on a night out, and ended up in the bath nursing her hangover. In another photo she flashed the peace sign as she touched upon her battle with premenstrual dysphoric disorder, as she thanked Vicky Pattison for encouraging her to get help with the condition. “Finally doing something about my PMDD Thankyou @vickypattison for being a support,” she explained.
Helen shared details of co-parenting at Christmas in a recent interview with Closer magazine, as she said the kids would be spending Christmas Day with dad Scott and his mother. “I won't have them for about four days. It will actually be the first Christmas that I don't have my children,” she sadly added.
