Helen Flanagan has sparked rumours that she and Scott Sinclair have reunited after being spotted wearing her ‘engagement ring’ during a family trip to Dubai.

Helen took to Instagram to share a snap looking very glamorous in the back of a taxi as she enjoyed her night out. In the snap, the former Coronation Street star is seen wearing a Nadine Merabi baby pink jumpsuit, with plunging neckline, waist belt and flared bottoms. A beaming sparkler can also be seen on the actress’s ring finger, as she smiles and poses for the photo.

The couple split up six months ago, after 13 years and three children together. However, onlookers told The Sun that they’ve been seen spending time together at the 5 star Grosvenor Hotel.

One said: “A lot of people around the hotel recognise them and think there could be a reconciliation between them but obviously they could also just be there for their children.”

Whilst another said: “Helen and Scott are both booked into the Grosvenor and while they’re making out they’re not together on social media, in reality they have been spending time together with their children.”

“They seem to be close still and appear from the outside to be a really happy family unit”, the onlooker added.

Giving another side to the social media narrative, this holidaymaker revealed that they have another woman with them who is looking after the children, so that Scott and Helen have time to talk.

The former couple reportedly seemed totally relaxed and at ease with each other, and even spent the evening together.

The footballer and actress reportedly called it quits last October, after Helen finished filming the I’m a Celebrity All Stars, in South Africa. The pair have not officially confirmed the split, but Helen did celebrate Valentine Day this year alone and promoted the importance of self-love on her Instagram page.

Since the break-up, the actress is seemingly ready to find love again, as she has supposedly joined the celebrity dating app, Raya. She is also of interest to the Celebs Go Dating producers, who have hopes she may take part in the next series.

Helen has been keeping fans updated throughout her holiday on her Instagram stories. Scott has not been shown or mentioned in these updates, but over on his Instagram page, he has uploaded a number of photos showing off his abs in an “unknown” holiday spot - with no tagged location.

Regardless of their differences, the pair have remained devoted co-parents to their three children, with Scott stepping in when Helen flew out to South Africa to film I’m a Celebrity - All Stars, last year.
