"It's half-term so I thought I'd take her there and she literally had the best time, I took all three on my own and it was fine and loved it.

"My friend who helps me with the kids came to meet me during the day and then we went to the water park and to cut a long story short, Charlie slipped, really, really badly."

Helen added: "It was awful, absolutely horrendous and I had to get an ambulance and he had snapped his collarbone into two, it was horrendous.

"I spent like six hours in like the hospital in Stoke. I'd like to say thank you to the paramedics and the nurses and doctors were amazing.

"That was awful, to hear your child in pain was just horrendous but he's ok."

The mum-of-three added: "There's actually not much you can do for it.

"Apparently, it mends by itself but it's horrible when you're a mum and you just wish you could take every pain away from them."

Charlie's slip came just one day before Helen was set to take her daughter Matilda to Paris for a girls trip but still managed to make it to the French capital and also took Charlie.

The star shared a snap of her son alongside the Eiffel Tower as she praised him for being "amazing" and "so brave" just a matter of hours after suffering from the slip.

She later explained that despite promising Matilda for "months" that it would just be the pair of them, she couldn't leave Charlie so took him and a friend along with them.
