Helen Flanagan stuns in swimsuit as she enjoys solo trip amid split
Helen Flanagan has been spotted for the first in France time since it was reported that she had split from her boyfriend Robbie Talbot after a year of dating. Helen Flanagan has been spotted enjoying a solo trip in France on Friday, as she sported a stirking blue swimsuit. It comes as the 34-year-old has reportedly split with Robbie Talbot. The pair, who began dating amid Helen's stint on Celebs Go Dating, are said to have clashed over views on having children. Since their split, Helen is focusing on being mum-of-three to her kids Charlie, three, Delilah, six, and Matilda, nine, that she shares with ex Scott Sinclair. As seen in snaps published by the Mirror, the Corrie star has now taken some time to reflect on things as she enjoys a solo trip to France. She was seen sporting a stunning £14 powder blue floral swimsuit from Primark's Love the Summer range while soaking up the sun at the luxurious YOLO beach club in Antibes. Helen was seen taking a dip in the crystal-clear waters, wearing her blonde hair tied back in a bun and a pair of sleek black Miu Miu designer sunglasses. It's been a challenging period for the former Coronation Street actress, who allegedly parted ways with Robbie because they wanted "different things in life". Helen is believed to have been keen to have kids with dad-of-two Robbie, with insiders reporting the pair had a "grown-up" conversation when realising their relationship was not progressing. The news of their split just comes weeks after she reportedly voiced concerns that her romance might be fizzling out, following Robbie's move out just months after living together. Helen is said to have found it difficult balancing being a full-time mum alongside both her career and relationship expectations. Adding further stress, the actress recently placed her 'forever home' on the market amid rumours of financial pressures. The former I'm A Celebrity star has candidly opened up previously about her struggles with both finances and her mental health. She confessed there was a point where she was left without any money. Helen previously resided in the eight-bedroom property located in Bolton, Greater Manchester, along with her former partner Scott, 36, and their children, before separating in 2022. In a heartfelt Instagram post in January, she divulged: "My love life was a s**t show.... I didn't look after my mental health. I felt so s**t and sad. I felt like my whole life was f***ed up now and I had the perfect family. 13 years is a long time to be with someone. My whole 20s. I had a lot of family fall-outs too and I also lost basically all my money. Me and Scott weren't married we were engaged. "My mental health was so bad I thought maybe my kids would be better off without me and maybe they would be better off with their dad as he's more level-headed than me. I love my kids more than words can say, but when you are not well you're not well."

Coronation Street star Helen Flanagan flew off to France on Friday after splitting up with her boyfriend, Robbie Talbot, for a heartbreaking reason Helen Flanagan looked deep in thought when she was papped in France on Friday after calling it quits with her boyfriend. Seen sporting a bargain blue swimsuit following her heartbreaking split with Robbie Talbot, the Coronation Street star, 34, walked along the beach in Antibes alone, after reportedly having a 'grown up chat' with Robbie, who she had dated for a year, before calling it quits over claims she wanted children with the former footballer, 45. Following her heartbreak, the mum-of-three is now said to be focusing on the kids she shares with ex, Scott Sinclair - and her career - and decided to jet off abroad on a solo trip as she gets used to her single life again. Seen sporting a stunning £14 powder blue floral swimsuit from Primark while sunning herself at the swanky YOLO beach club in Antibes, France, the Rosie Webster star, cooled off in the sea, with her blonde locks tied up into a bun, sporting a pair of black Miu Miu designer sunglasses.

It's been a tough time for the I'm A Me Out Of Here! star, who reportedly split from Robbie because they want "different things in life". The Bolton-born actress, best known for playing the role of Rosie Webster in Coronation Street, is said to have wanted children with the dad-of-two, with sources saying the pair had a "grown-up" chat after realising that things were not working out between them. The split comes just weeks after Helen was reportedly worried that her relationship could be "going backwards" after Robbie moved out months after they started living together. Helen reportedly was desperate to make the relationship work, but found it difficult to juggle her role as devoted mum to children Matilda, nine, Delilah, six, and three-year-old Charlie, while building something new. She also recently put her 'forever home' up for sale amid reports of financial strain. The actress has been candid about her bank balance and her mental health in recent months, admitting that at one point, she lost all her money. Helen had initially lived in the eight-bedroom house in Bolton, Greater Manchester, with her now ex-partner Scott 36, and their three children, prior to the couple's separation in 2022. Taking to Instagram in January, she shared: "My love life was a s**t show…. I didn't look after my mental health. I felt so s**t and sad. I felt like my whole life was f***ed up now and I had the perfect family. 13 years is a long time to be with someone. My whole 20s. I had a lot of family fall-outs too and I also lost basically all my money. Me and Scott weren't married we were engaged. "My mental health was so bad I thought maybe my kids would be better off without me and maybe they would be better off with their dad as he's more level-headed than me. I love my kids more than words can say, but when you are not well you're not well." Recently revealing that selling her family home, had left her 'anxious', she explained that while she's looking forward to the "fresh break" she was also worried about "downsizing". Explaining she'd put 'a lot of her savings' into the property to make it 'nice for her kids', she said recently on the Declutter podcast: "It actually makes me sad that I'm going to be leaving this house soon because I actually put so much effort into it. I put a lot of my savings into like doing the house up and stuff, and making it look really beautiful." Conceding it was a lot of work to manage, Helen continued: "It's an eight bedroomed house which is obviously really hard to keep on top of. I mean, I feel really lucky to to live here - well, soon to have lived here - because it is gorgeous but it's a lot to keep on top of." "But I think I'm gonna struggle to... Obviously when I do [move] because obviously I will be downsizing so much."
