Helen Flanagan, once a paragon of body confidence through numerous high-profile modelling stints post-Coronation Street, has acknowledged feeling some insecurities after motherhood.
Previously dazzling fans with photo shoots for men's magazines at 34, Helen has admitted to losing that self-assuredness regarding her appearance.
On Instagram, the ex-Coronation Street actress and partner to footballer Scott Sinclair, got real with followers about noticing "cellulite."

In her latest 'Get Ready With Me,' Helen swaps her pink pyjamas for striking blue lace lingerie, showcasing a physique many would envy.
She confided to fans that her weight fluctuates with the state of her love life and stress levels, reports the Mirror.
Exhibiting her figure in new lingerie, she expressed contentment over being part of the brand's editing process.
Emphasising self-acceptance, she advised fans: "Even though sometimes you don't feel so confident or toned, just got for it. Even though I've got cellulite and my body isn't as toned as it used to be, I just thought, 'you know what Helen go for it, you only live once.'".
Transformed for a night out, Helen presented the finishing touch - a chic denim dress, looking every bit the star ready for the spotlight.
However, this news comes shortly after she was spotted on a night out at Wayne Lineker's popular Ibiza bar. In a candid post on Instagram, Helen confessed to feeling severely hungover, comparing herself to a "lizard."
She shared: "I am really hungover, I am like a lizard. I am not drinking for a long time. I know I will feel better tomorrow. I have the school run tomorrow. Oh my god. I literally got in at six in the morning."
Despite her fame from the ITV soap, Helen appears to be facing financial difficulties. The former soap star has had to lower the asking price of her six-bedroom, 5,000 square foot home from £1.5million to £1.195million.
Reports suggest that Helen's financial struggles began after her 13-year relationship with Scott ended in 2022, leaving her with three children. Following a year-long romance, Helen also recently split with Robbie Talbot.

Rod Stewart at Glastonbury: The brilliant moments and the blunders as legend takes centre stage
Sir Rod Stewart delivered a memorable performance at Glastonbury Festival, taking the prestigious Legends slot on the Pyramid Stage this Sunday afternoon, accompanied by an array of special guests. The singer was joined by Mick Hucknall, Ronnie Wood, and Lulu for a thrilling set that featured some of his greatest hits including 'Maggie May', 'Do Ya Think I'm Sexy? and 'Sailing', as well as other crowd-pleasers like 'Love Train'. A poignant moment came with a heartfelt tribute to Fleetwood Mac's Christine McVie, who passed away in November 2022. Rod honoured her memory at Glastonbury by displaying her image on the big screen. Fans packed in tightly to witness Rod's extensive set, with festival-goers at the front being cooled down with cups of water as they endured the sweltering heat, reports the Mirror. Despite the excitement, the show experienced a few snags. Battling the heat, Rod had to exit the stage twice during his set to change outfits. The soaring temperatures proved challenging for him, initially dressed in a jacket and long-sleeved white shirt. He later re-emerged in a striking pink suit, informing the audience, "The girls are going to do a song for you while I change my shirt". During his absence, the band entertained the crowd with a rendition of 'Lady Marmalade'. During his second performance, Rod's band played another song as he unexpectedly vanished to slip into a striking bright green suit. The transition wasn't quite seamless when Lulu was introduced as one of Rod's special guests in this afternoon's gig. After announcing Ronnie Wood and then Lulu, only Ronnie promptly appeared on stage, leaving Rod to clarify that 'oh Lulu is coming on in a bit' while Ronnie took up his guitar to entertain the vast Glastonbury audience. Lulu eventually made her entrance, joining Rod for a rendition of Hot Legs, clad in an eye-catching white suit. Rod seemed to stumble over the opening of his renowned hit Maggie May, possibly starting too soon, but the crowd didn't mind and joined in enthusiastically. The beloved tune sparked the most spirited crowd participation of the session, with fans filling the space to capacity as Rod commanded the legendary Pyramid Stage for ninety minutes. Rod was evidently having such a good time that he overran his allotted slot by a few minutes. Despite the wardrobe swaps and star-studded lineup, Rod wrapped up his act about five minutes behind schedule. He addressed the audience, saying "We have got to get off the stage soon, we are done," before launching into the popular number Sailing and expressing gratitude towards all the celebrities who contributed to his well-received show.

Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 6 Boris Becker and his wife Lilian have announced "a little miracle is on the way" Credit: Splash 6 The pair made the announcement in a touching social media post Credit: Getty 6 The tennis ace married Lilian in Italy last September Credit: Getty The caption read: "A little miracle is on the way... the best is yet to come." In the video Lilian can be seen holding her belly while the gospel choir song 'Total Praise' plays in the background. It also included one clip of herself in a bathroom mirror showing off her baby bump. Accompanying the video were various photos taken by a professional photographer. Becker married his 35-year-old partner last September in Portofino, Italy and the pair now reside permanently in Milan. The former tennis ace and the risk analyst have been dating since 2019. They're now set to welcome their first child together. Becker waxed lyrical about his wife in a recent interview with Stern Magazine where he said: "This is perhaps the first partnership on equal terms for me. "No one is more important than the other, I need Lilian, and I hope she needs me too. "We met at a time when I was feeling very bad. "Professionally, personally, physically, I was feeling worse than ever before in my life but despite this, Lilian was interested in me. "That's remarkable, because she could only be interested in me as a person because I had nothing else to offer - I had never met a woman like that before." The announcement comes three years after his release from prison after being jailed in 2022 at Southwark Crown Court, serving eight months. The tennis icon had failed to disclose assets and loads to his creditors after declaring bankruptcy. Becker already has four children by three different women. He married Barbara Feltus in 1993 and the couple had a son, Noah, born in 1994 and a daughter, Elias, born in 1999. The pair separated in December 2000. The following year Becker confirmed he was the father of Anna, the daughter of Angela Ermakova, a Russian model, following a High Court battle. Fast forward seven years and Becker announced he was engaged to Dutch model Sharley "Lily" Kerssenberg and they married in 2009. The couple had a son, Amadeus in 2010 and then split in May 2018. 6 Becker married his first wife, Barbara Feltus in 1993 and the pair had a son, Noah, and daughter, Elias Credit: Getty 6 He then married Sharley "Lily" Kerssenberg in 2009 Credit: Getty
