Helen Flanagan has described spending Christmas without her children as 'unnatural' in a candid social media post. The former Coronation Street actress, who shares three children with ex-partner Scott Sinclair, spoke out about the challenges of co-parenting during the festive season.
In a TikTok video, Flanagan, 34, appeared in pyjamas and blew a kiss to the camera, captioning the post: 'Not having your kids on Christmas Eve feels so unnatural when you're a mummy x.' She added that she had 'a really nice Christmas with my family and my friends' but emphasised that 'it's not about me, it's about the children.'
The actress and Scott Sinclair ended their 13-year relationship in 2022. They have three children: Matilda, 10, Delilah, seven, and Charlie, four. Flanagan previously criticised Sinclair for missing their son's nativity to attend the Formula One in Abu Dhabi, calling him a 'piece of s**t' on social media.
Despite the difficulties, Flanagan encouraged other co-parents, writing: 'Sending love to all of those that co parent... it's not easy.' Fans offered support, with one commenting: 'Well done you... your kids will appreciate it when they're older.'
