Helen Flanagan is dating ‘hot man’ one year on from split with footballer Scott Sinclair

Coronation Street icon Helen Flanagan took some time out of the dating game, but now, feeling she’s ready to get back out there, she’s started seeing a new man.

The actress who’s mothered three children with footballer Scott Sinclair, is now reportedly back in the game. Helen shares seven-year-old daughter Matilda, four-year-old daughter Delilah and two-year-old son Charlie, with her former fiancé Scott.

Helen and Scott split after a 13-year relationship, four of which spent engaged. Therefore, she needed to have a break, but now, ready to find love, she’s dived into the deep end.

Sharing the moment with her adoring Instagram followers, Helen posted a video, in which the pair discussed her eagerly-anticipated date.

In the clip, Matilda revealed: “My mum’s going on a date with someone tomorrow, and I think she said he’s very hot.” Taken aback, Helen responded: “Do you like the look of him? I think he looks quite nice.” Throwing her mum under the boss, the youngster laughed: “But you think he’s really hot.”

Helen asserted: “Yeah, I know, but Matilda, I’m a bit nervous actually because I don’t know him.” Her daughter pointed out: “Yeah, but you have this dating app, so you look at these boys, but some of them do this, [creating a boy impression].” The actress added: “Most of them look really creepy, don’t they?” With a big smile, Matild beamed: “Yes.”

An insider told The Sun that Helen is excited to explore a new relationship: “Helen’s officially back on the dating scene – she’s been seeing someone on/off for a while but has said they’re better off as friends, but she did really like dating him. Everything’s really casual, and she’s taking things slow – she doesn’t want anything serious.”

In a testament to her authenticity, the Corrie star opened up about the hit her confidence took after her split with her sporting ex-boyfriend.

She said: “I’m just myself on Instagram. What my life actually is. I’m just myself… Yeah, I find my social media quite therapeutic, really. I like being honest about situations, really.

“I am trying to do that with motherhood… it has been a weird adjustment for me. Over the past year, really. I was with my fiancé for a really long time – when I was 19 to 31, and he was my whole world. But yeah, and then, before that, I had a boyfriend when I was 17. My whole adult life – I’ve never been single or on my own. That, over the past year, has been quite an adjustment for me.”
