Helen Flanagan rants about loss of her driving license after being banned for speeding before revealing she and ex Scott Sinclair are back 'co-parenting in the same house' despite bitter split
ranted about the loss of her driving license and numerous parenting woes in a chaotic social media post on Thursday, five months after she was banned for speeding. The ex Corrie actress, 34, who in January t old the court ex-footballer boyfriend Robbie Talbot was driving her £66,000 Audi Q7 when it was caught speeding twice, complained what a 'pain in the a***' it had been without a car and had been unable to run errands or go shopping for essentials due to living so remotely. Helen was banned from the road for six months, despite claiming she was struggling financially and would not be able to afford taxis to get her children to school. Taking to her Instagram Stories she explained her ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder) had caused her to mix up paperwork to reapply for her licence, meaning the process would now be delayed further. 'I literally can't tell you what a pain in the a*** not having [my driving licence] because I live in the middle of nowhere, and of course I have't been driving'. 'It's just been so b****y annoying, for example we are out of loo roll now and I can't pop out to the shops to get loo roll so my friend has to bring me loo roll'. She also revealed that she an ex Scott Sinclair, with whom she shares, Matlida, nine, Delilah, six, and Charlie three, were back 'co-parenting in the same house' despite their bitter split. Helen, who has been forced to put their former £1.5M family home on the market, split from the footballer, 36, in 2022 after 13 years and earlier this month took a vicious swipe at him ahead of Father's Day. Explaining the situation she said: 'So it's Matilda's birthday and Delilah's birthday, they had the same due date, and there is seven days between their birthdays and that's like hectic. 'So Scott is off at football but we are back co-parenting in the same house, which we don't usually do,'. Taking a deep breath she continued: 'But it actually went OK, so obviously we have to do that because it's the kids birthdays'. In court Helen said her isolated moorland home meant it was a 10-minute drive even to go to the shops to buy bread and milk, and that she would 'really struggle without a car' in the remote location. The actress, who lives near Bolton, Greater Manchester, said she earned £70,000 last year – but said her income varies and that she could not afford a £10 taxi to take her son to nursery. Prosecutor Stephen Kirk told how Helen, who already had six penalty points for speeding, failed to declare who had been driving the car when it was caught speeding at locations on Merseyside in June last year, doing 42mph in a 30mph limit and 51mph in a 40mph limit. Earlier this month the stunner set pulses racing in sexy black lingerie before taking a swipe at Scott. 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. 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. 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 '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.'

I fell asleep in the sun for two hours – people say I have irreversible skin damage – don't make my mistake
SUMMER has arrived, bringing with it longer days, warmer weather, and the irresistible allure of basking in the sun. But as we embrace the sunny season, it's more important than ever to prioritise protecting our skin with SPF. The sun may feel glorious, but it can cause serious damage if we're not careful. Helen Flanagan, known to her TikTok followers as @ haleigh_flanigan, recently went viral after sharing a video of her painfully sunburnt face. Just two days after posting, the clip amassed 7.7 million views. In the video, Helen candidly addresses the camera, her face an unmistakable shade of red. "Say a prayer for this sunburn," she begins. "Because I fell asleep today in the sun for two hours and the UV was at a solid 10. And at this point, I'm afraid I have sun poisoning." Wearing suncream is essential for protecting your skin from the harmful effects of the sun's ultraviolet (UV) rays. While the sun offers warmth and light, its rays can cause significant damage to your skin if left unprotected. Wearing suncream is crucial for protecting your skin from the harmful effects of the sun. It prevents painful sunburn, which can damage skin cells and lead to redness, swelling, peeling, and even sun poisoning, with symptoms such as blistering, fever, and dehydration. Suncream also reduces the risk of skin cancer, including melanoma - the most dangerous form - by acting as a protective barrier against harmful UV rays. How to reverse sun-damaged skin Additionally, it slows premature ageing caused by sun exposure, helping to prevent wrinkles, fine lines, and age spots, while maintaining your skin's youthful appearance. Helen's relatable experience struck a chord with her TikTok followers, as many rushed to the comments section to share their thoughts. One wrote: 'You need to go to the hospital.' A second added: 'As a nurse, please go to the hospital.' While someone else warned: 'That is a life changing sunburn. Schedule/keep up with regular skin checks.' And another commented: 'Oh mannnnnnnn the long term effects of this ain't gonna be a good girl.' We previously revealed how a woman's dream holiday quickly turned into a nightmare after severe sunburn caused her face to swell so much that even her mum didn't recognise her. Ashlei Bianchi, 23, was enjoying a sunny getaway in the Dominican Republic when disaster struck just two days into her trip. After spending the afternoon lounging by the pool with her family in Punta Cana, she began to notice unusual swelling on her face and forehead by the evening. Although she had applied suncream, Ashlei initially brushed it off as a mild reaction to the sun. The importance of sun cream in your skincare routine Dermatologist and skincare enthusiast Andrea Suarez - known as Dr Dray - revealed why you should wear suncream. The one thing you can do that will make the biggest difference - and this matters for all ages - is protecting your skin from the sun, Andrea stressed. "The vast majority of external aging is due to exposure to ultraviolet radiation," she continued, not because you're "not using some jazzy serum or layering 90 different things on your face everyday". "If you're not doing in your 20s, get on that now." But she said the use of sun cream alone doesn't go far enough. Andrea urged that you also wear sun-protective clothing like broad-brimmed hats and long sleeves, on top of not staying out too long in the sun. Doing this over your lifetime - and all year, not just during the summer or on sunny days - "will reduce the visible signs of photoageing", Andrea said. Those are wrinkles, muddled pigmentation and sagging skin. 2 Hoping to soothe her skin, the New York native applied aloe vera gel and carried on with her holiday. However, by the end of the four-day trip, the swelling had worsened dramatically. Her face became so puffy that her own mum, Michelle Bianchi, 52, didn't recognise her during a FaceTime call.
