Celebs Go Dating star Helen Flanagan urges sex-starved single mums to find fellas

Helen Flanagan wants to inspire the nation’s single mums to start going on sexy dates.

The former Coronation Street actress, 34, has signed up for the new series of Celebs Go Dating after her split from footie ace Scott Sinclair. And she’s hoping it will give other women the confidence to look for romance.

She exclusively told the Daily Star: “I want to inspire other mums. When I signed up to do Celebs Go Dating, I thought it might be quite nice to make mums out there think about dating.

“I’d love it if a mum saw me on the show and it made her give it a go. I want them to think, ‘Helen is doing it, maybe I can’.”

Mum-of-three Helen is keen to find a man she can settle down with. The star added: “I’ve got children and I’d love to meet someone.

“Having a relationship now I’m a mum would be very different to having one when I was younger. It would take someone very special for me to introduce someone to my children.”

Helen was set up with a string of lads during filming for the series and she loved the experience. She said: “I’ve really enjoyed doing the show. It’s been the best summer.

“I wasn’t nervous when I went on dates, but maybe I should have been. It was just nice to have a night off from being a mum!”

It comes after the star admitted she once got stuck in a loo for an hour moments after she took a sexy selfie. The soap siren, best known for her role as Rosie Webster, was taking a raunchy snap for her footballer ex when the toilet door’s lock broke.

The mum-of-three confessed: “I remember being in Scotland and I didn’t have any family around. I remember going to the loo to send Scott a sexy picture, because I thought if I lock myself in the toilet, I can send him a nice, sexy picture – the lock broke.

“So I was locked in the toilet, right? I’ve got no family around. Scott was at an away game. Literally, all I had was my phone, and I had to ring my nanny in Scotland.

“It took like an hour for her to come. All I could hear was ‘Mama, mama, mama’ outside the door. I couldn’t get to the kids, I only had Matilda and Delilah then.”

A red-faced Helen admitted she couldn’t tell her nanny the real reason why she was stuck in the bathroom. She added: “Obviously, I didn’t tell her why. I just said, ‘Oh, I popped to the loo, and you know, the lock broke.’”

The series, which also features Lauryn Goodman, starts on Monday at 9pm on E4. Want all the biggest Showbiz and TV news straight to your inbox? Sign up for our free Daily Star Showbiz newsletter.
