Helen Flanagan is wanted by E4 bosses to feature on the next series of Celebs Go Dating, following her shock split from fiance Scott Sinclair last October.

The former Coronation Street actress, 32, called things off with the Bristol Rovers footballer, 33, after a 13-year relationship and three children.

The I’m A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here star has since been trying to find love on exclusive dating app Raya, and has now found herself on top of the E4 bosses wish list.

Celebs Go Dating follows celebrities as they try to find love with people who are not in the public eye, with help from the programme’s relationship experts Anna Williamson and Paul C Brunson.

An insider told The Mirror: "Helen is the perfect candidate for Celebs Go Dating and E4 is hoping that she will agree to take part when they approach her for the new series. She is a television pro thanks to her time on Corrie and is incredibly glamorous.

"She would be the star signing for the show and the production team have put her name at the top of their wish list as they think she would be a hit with viewers. Helen only split from Scott five months ago so it’s still very early days for her in terms of finding love."

In the most recent series, Love Island winner Liam Reardon, singer Sinitta and Geordie Shores’ Bethan Kershaw all tried to find love on the hit reality show.

Helen and Scott, who share Delilah, Matilda and Charlie, began dating in 2009 after meeting whilst the footballer was playing for Wigan Athletic.

Scott popped the question in May 2018, however the former Corrie actress thought it was ‘bad omen’ when her engagement ring snapped last year - and subsequently she called off the relationship.
