Helen Flanagan says she is ‘grateful’ for her children whilst enjoying a kid-free holiday in Greece

Helen Flanagan is feeling “grateful” for her three children, despite enjoying a kid-free holiday in Greece. The former Coronation Street actress, 32, shares seven-year-old Matilda, five-year-old Delilah and two-year-old Charlie with ex-fiance and Bristol Rovers star Scott Sinclair.

The I’m A Celeb star, who is currently in Mykonos with close friend and hairstylist Kelvin Barron, posted a carousel of images to Instagram yesterday (8 June). Helen is seen donning a black dress and sandals, whilst Delilah and Matilda are dressed colourfully whilst wearing a pair of blue crocs and pink sandals respectively, and youngster Charlie dons spiderman shorts with a red t-shirt and black crocs. She simply wrote: “Grateful 🌎❤️”

The trip to Greece comes less than two weeks after Helen was mum shamed for enjoying a girls holiday to Ibiza. On 29 May, Helen shared a posey picture from inside the Wi-Ki Woo Hotel, where she stayed with pal and make-up artist Ashley Elizabeth. Whilst some fans called the former Coronation Street actress “gorgeous” and “stunning”, one Instagram user wrote: “You need to spend more time with your kids!”.

Helen soon slammed the online troll, posting a screenshot of the comment on her Instagram story, she wrote: “I have never been on a girls holiday like that before as I’ve always stayed at home looking after the kids. Why is everything always on women? X”

More recently, the mum-of-three was blamed by online trolls for causing her son’s tantrums after she posted some snaps of Charlie crying to Instagram. Alongside the pictures, she wrote: “Charlie’s tantrums today were off the scale 🦖💙 trying to get pictures with my two year old 😅🤍”.

Comments came flooding in, with one user writing: “You’re why he has tantrums Helen the same as Delilah has tantrums. You are so overbearing & in their face all the time.” However Helen managed to laugh the comments off, posting a screenshot to her Instagram Story, she wrote: “Very strange some comments on Instagram,” before adding another screenshot calling the comments “vile”.
