Helen Flanagan has been spotted enjoying a solo trip to France, wearing a striking blue floral swimsuit from Primark's Love the Summer range. The 34-year-old actress, known for her role on Coronation Street, was seen relaxing at the YOLO beach club in Antibes, soaking up the sun and taking a dip in the crystal-clear waters.
The outing comes amid reports that Flanagan has split with Robbie Talbot, whom she began dating during her stint on Celebs Go Dating. Sources suggest the couple clashed over their views on having children, with Flanagan reportedly keen to expand her family while Talbot, a father of two, had different priorities.
Since the split, Flanagan has been focusing on being a mother to her three children—Charlie, three, Delilah, six, and Matilda, nine—whom she shares with ex-partner Scott Sinclair. She recently placed her 'forever home' in Bolton on the market amid rumours of financial pressures.
Flanagan has previously opened up about her struggles with mental health and finances, revealing in a January Instagram post that she had lost 'basically all my money' and felt her 'whole life was f***ed up.' She also admitted to having dark thoughts, saying, 'My mental health was so bad I thought maybe my kids would be better off without me.'
The actress is now taking time to reflect during her solo trip, as she navigates the challenges of balancing motherhood, career, and personal life.
