Helen Flanagan makes candid confession following split from ex Scott Sinclair
Helen Flanagan concerned fans after she made an honest confession about life as a single mum following her split from ex-fiance Scott Sinclair.
The couple share three children together - Matilda, 7, Delilah, 4, and Charlie, 2 - and Helen sadly announced they had split last July after being together for 13 years.
In a recent make-up free selfie posted on Instagram, the former Coronation Street star revealed she was struggling after a tiring day.
“Tired, overwhelmed, hormonal and I've ate rubbish all day," Helen captioned the snap, which showed her relaxing in her dressing gown.
The I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here star has spoken about the toll her split from the Bristol Rovers winger, and revealed Scott had moved in with his mum as they try and figure out co-parenting.

Helen said she was struggling with her emotions as she dealt with her kids“I was with Scott aged 19-31, so that's why I get on so well with his mum," she told The Sun, as she confessed the kids see their dad “all the time”.
“It's really nice, it's pretty drama free as I get on really well with her. The kids see their dad all the time, they see their nana a lot, we're always in Birmingham a lot to meet with the kids halfway,” Helen added.
The couple began dating in 2009, and the footballer popped the question while on holiday in Disneyland Paris in 2018.

“A lot of people say, ‘Oh, stay, make things work for the children. But children need happy parents and they need a happy environment, so it’s not always so straightforward,” she told OK!
Helen made the decision to keep wearing her engagement ring while in the South African jungle for the I’m A Celeb spin-off series, which saw previous campmates reunite in a bid to become the ‘ultimate’ winner.
“We’d only just broken up, and I didn’t want everyone to be asking, ‘Where’s your ring?’” she explained.
