HELEN Flanagan is in serious hot water with the love gurus on Celebs Go Dating, leaving her future on the show in jeopardy.
After joining the show with six other celebs in the hope of finding true love, it seems she had already secretly found it off-screen, leaving the experts “livid”.
Now she risks being axed from the show after admitting she has a secret boyfriend, and has been confronted by the gurus leaving the soap star in floods of tears.
After hearing the bombshell news, love guru Paul Brunson is seen telling the camera: “Helen has not only wasted our time, but all of the dates’ time.
“We need to hear the full truth of why she has kept this from us.
“And if we are not happy with her response, it is time for her to leave the agency.”
In another clip Paul calls the soap star out saying: “This is an opportunity just to tell us the truth.
“If you lie again, me personally, I would not want you to remain at this agency.”
Visibly shaken, Helen says: “My boyfriend’s name is Robbie. I met him in February and we were dating. I said to him: ‘I am going to join the agency.’
“Because it is something I wanted to do.
“I have never been single before and I wanted to grow and learn more about myself.
“And then things have got really intense. I have fallen in love with him.”
After her grilling, tearful Helen is seen in a clip saying: “I know I can’t date, but I would like to maybe stay in the agency and still have a little bit of maybe therapy for myself.”
Expert Anna then said: “Thank you for being honest. If you are being honest with us then we can work with everything,” before Paul gives her a hug saying: “I applaud this. I rate this. This is all I wanted.”
The hit show follows celebrities as they go on a journey of love and lust, with the help of a dating agency that pairs them with members of the public.
Viewers are hooked on potential hook-ups, as the agency’s expert matchmakers set them up on blind dates in the hope they’ll find true love.
Before her boyfriend bombshell on the show, Helen had kissed one singleton suitor after several dates together – before the actress broke the news that he wasn’t right for her.
Before appearing on the show the 34 year old mother of three had been lamenting the lack of love in her life since she split with her footballer fiancé, Scott Sinclair.
However it seems she has now found love with former footballer Robbie Talbot, 44, who joined her at her 34th birthday party last month.
A source said at the time: ‘Helen’s absolutely smitten. They look so good together. She deserves to be happy after everything she’s been through recently.”
