Helen Flanagan puts on a busty display in saucy black lingerie as she takes vicious swipe at ex Scott Sinclair after slashing price of their former family home amid financial struggles
Helen Flanagan set pulses racing in sexy black lingerie before she took a vicious swipe at ex Scott Sinclair on Instagram on Tuesday. The ex Coronation Street star, 34, who shares Matilda, nine, Delilah, six, and Charlie, three, with the footballer, 36, posed up a storm in the skimpy Nikki Inmates set. Helen's eye popping lace outfit boasted a bra that barely contained her surgically enhanced assets, with matching knickers, stockings and suspenders. Taking to her Instagram Stories Helen shared a meme which read: 'What are you getting your baby daddy for Father's day' alongside a clip of Whitney Houston dramatically singing 'nothing' in a scene 1992 film The Bodyguard. Helen and Scott separated in 2022 after 13 years together, before she moved on with Robbie Talbot, 45, only to split last month after a year of dating. From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's new Showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. On her failed romance with ex Scott, Helen revealed she was the one to call time on their relationship. She said they 'were always quietly breaking up and then getting back together' until one day she called it quits for good. Helen told The Sun: 'In the end, it was me who decided [to break up]. I'll always be sad it didn't work out, and we still have love for each other, but we're happier apart.' Speaking to Charlotte Dawson on her Naughty Corner podcast, Helen said: 'I still love him very much, I care about him deeply, but we don't like each other. 'We don't like each other at all, we don't get on. I do know that Scott - he'd never admit it - cares about me too and he does love me. 'But I'm so done, I could never have another relationship again where we would always be bickering. I haven't got another argument in me. As women we try and do anything we can to make it work with the father of your children and I did. But I think for me if I was in a relationship with someone else it would have to be easy because I haven't got the energy in me again, I've done all that with the father of my kids.' Helen went onto say co-parenting is 'hilarious' as she revealed the pair try and avoid each other so they don't 'argue' in front of their kids. She continued: 'I've been a single mum for two years now. Co-parenting is hilarious, we were together for 13 years. 'The last time I saw him, I thought it was quite funny, I was taking the p*** out of him because he had a bucket hat on. I think he was trying not to laugh. 'He lives in Bath and I live in North Manchester so its about five hours and we meet in Birmingham to exchange things and the kids. 'He's throwing things in my boot and I just started taking the mickey out of his bucket hat to lighten the mood. 'We just try and not be in the same house together because the children are the priority and I want a good environment for them and I don't want them to see us arguing.' The actress recently admitted that she's 'really struggling financially' after making a fortune from appearing on the ITV soap and various reality TV shows. Amid her struggles, Helen has reduced the asking price of her six-bedroom detached home, where she once lives with Scott, on the outskirts of Bolton. It was initially on the market for £1.5 million, but it's been dropped by £305,000 - a steep fall of 20 per cent with a new asking price of £1.19million. The three-floored home, spanning over 5,000 square feet, was put on the market in the middle of May. Depending on the size of the mortgage, Helen could still be set for a tidy windfall as she bought it with her ex partner, footballer Scott Sinclair, for £840,000 in June 2021. According to the brochure, two bedrooms have en-suite bathrooms and living rooms - one of which is full of designer handbags, clothes and shoes, 'which really gives it the wow factor'. Helen recently revealed that despite the house already being on the market, she doesn't know where she will move to next - admitting London might be too expensive. She said of the future move: 'We are selling the house now which will be nice to have a change. Because I was with Scott for so long I was used to moving house a lot (because he is a footballer) so it's normal for me. 'I could now never stay in one place for too long I don't think. I like a change, I love it.'

Bobby Brown Reflects On Coping With Grief After Deaths Of Bobbi Kristina, Bobby Brown Jr.
Bobby Brown is opening up about his ongoing journey through grief following the heartbreaking losses of two of his children, Bobbi Kristina Brown and Bobby Brown Jr. During a candid appearance on The Jennifer Hudson Show, the R&B icon reflected on how he continues to cope with the pain and find healing. 'Lots of prayer, first and foremost, that absolutely took me to the point where I accepted therapy in my life,' Brown told Hudson. 'I accepted going to a therapist and really working out all of the issues that I had within me.' In addition to therapy, Brown shared that leaning on loved ones has been essential. He emphasized the importance of relying on family members for emotional support when he 'wasn't feeling right and when times get hard.' Brown also spoke about continuing to feel the presence of his children and the emotional balance required not to be overwhelmed by sorrow. 'They're still there because it doesn't stop. It's not like it just goes away,' he continued. 'It's gonna be with you forever, but it's about dealing with it and really paying attention to yourself. Paying attention to how you're feeling that day and letting somebody know how you're feeling that day. You know, not keeping it inside.' Bobbi Kristina Brown, his daughter with the late Whitney Houston, passed away in 2015 at the age of 22 after being found unresponsive in a bathtub, a tragic parallel to her mother's death. In 2020, Bobby Brown Jr., his son from a previous relationship, died from an accidental overdose involving alcohol, cocaine, and fentanyl. He was 28.

Lee Sansum dead at 63: Former bodyguard to Princess Diana who protected William & Harry passes away as wife pays tribute
The bodyguard protected the princess just one month before her tragic death in 1997 ROYAL LOSS Lee Sansum dead at 63: Former bodyguard to Princess Diana who protected William & Harry passes away as wife pays tribute PRINCESS Diana's former bodyguard who protected princes William and Harry has died at the age of 63. Lee Sansum, who served as a royal military police officer, was one of Diana's bodyguards shortly before her death in 1997, escorting her during a family holiday to the French resort of Saint Tropez that year. 6 Princess Diana's former bodyguard Lee Sansum has died at the age of 63 Credit: Northpix 6 The former royal military police officer (far right) protected Diana and her kids Harry and William during a trip to Saint Tropez in July 1997 Credit: B960 6 Harry on a jet ski while on holiday with mum Diana in Saint Tropez just one month before her tragic death Credit: Getty The former bodyguard's wife announced the tragic news of Lee's death in a post on Facebook on Monday, revealing he had died of a sudden heart attack. Sharing a compilation of pictures of the couple throughout the years, she wrote: "Since meeting in 1998, Lee Sansum has been my soul mate, hero and most amazing man in my world. "So I'm devastated to share that he is no longer with us. He had a fatal heart attack on Saturday morning at home. "His huge presence will be missed around the world as much as it is in our household although his capacity for love, and the life skills he has shared have left a legacy that will never be lost. "He's forever loved and will always be with us "I love you more than ever 'My Lovely Lee'." On top of being a bodyguard for Diana and her kids, father-of-six Lee also served as a bodyguard for the late Alex Salmond, while he was serving as First Minister of Scotland in 2014. Lee, who held black belts in karate, jujitsu and kick-boxing, was nicknamed "Rambo" by Diana and was no stranger to the spotlight. He also loyally protected stars such as Sylvester Stallone, Jean-Claude Van Damme, Nicole Kidman, and Tom Cruise during his career. At the time of Diana's tragic death in 1997, Lee was serving as part of the protection team for Mohamed Al-Fayed - the father of her then partner Dodi. He had been assigned to look after Diana and her young sons Prince William and Prince Harry during their stay at Al-Fayad's 30-bedroom villa in Saint Tropez in the summer of 1997. This was tragically just one month before Diana died in a Paris car crash, alongside Dodi. Lee had released a book in 2022 - called The Bodyguard - in which he explored his close relationship with Diana and the young princes, particularly Harry. He revealed how he had tried to teach the two boys kickboxing but that they were too "apprehensive" to it. 6 Lee received a touching letter from Diana, William, and Harry after protecting them on their holiday to Saint Tropez Credit: Northpix 6 He also served as a bodyguard for the late First Minister of Scotland Alex Salmond in 2014 Credit: Northpix 6 Lee was nicknamed Rambo by Princess Diana Credit: Supplied However, he managed to succeed in teaching Harry how to drive a jet ski - even helping him to soak photographers who were waiting to snap a picture of the young prince on holiday. For his loyal and kind services on the trip, he was given a touching thank you letter by Diana. In it, she wrote that she was grateful for the "magical ten days [which] would not have been possible without your invaluable contribution". The former bodyguard also revealed that Diana had turned to him for comfort, even crying on his shoulder, after her fashion designer friend Gianni Versace had been fatally shot outside his home in July 1997. Lee, born in Burnley, Lancashire, said Diana would chat to him every day after she woke up at 7am - adding that she was worried about the safety of her own life. He added that Diana was an "amazing woman", saying: "She cared a great deal. She never said a bad word about anyone.' 25 years following her death, Lee also revealed how he could have been in the car with the princess on the day she died. Speaking in a 2022 interview, he said: "It could have been me in that car. "We drew straws to see who would be accompanying Trevor [Rees-Jones] that weekend. "When I learned they were not wearing seatbelts in the crash I understood why they didn't survive. "I always insisted on it." Lee claimed Diana would still be alive if he had been on duty the night she died in a car crash. The ex-Royal Military Policeman and "international security consultant" explained it was standard practice for the family to wear seatbelts - an order which had been sent down by Mohamed Al-Fayed. When Diana, Dodi, and driver Henri Paul crashed and tragically died, none were wearing seatbelts. Lee had begun his service as a military police officer in Northern Ireland during The Troubles. He said: 'I was looking after people in witness protection. I learnt my craft in Northern Ireland.' After leaving the Army he started working as a civilian bodyguard, known in the industry as The Circuit. A friend then recommended him to billionaire businessman Al-Fayed, who was so impressed by Lee that the bodyguard said he 'became like family'.
