HELEN Flanagan has broken her silence on the reunion she had with her footballer ex Scott Sinclair.
Just a few weeks ago, the former Coronation Street star admitted that he blocked her on social media.
Helen, 34, and Scott, 35, previously announced their split in 2022 after 13 years together.
Since then, the Celebs Go Dating star has found love with an older man – former footballer Robbie Talbot, 44.
She recently reunited with Scott as they both took their daughter Matilda, nine, to the launch of Winter Wonderland.
The duo put on a show of unity at the star-studded event at London‘s Hyde Park.
Now, Helen has exclusively opened up on her relationship with Scott to The Sun, saying they are both “respectful” of one another.
This especially applies to the duo living their individual lives with new partners on social media.
In an exclusive interview hosted by WhichBingo.co.uk, she told us: “I’ve always used my social media,”
“I’ve always been really open about parts of my life on social media.
“But like, if I post, if I posted on anything, like, with my boyfriend, maybe say, with my children, I’m always very respectful to the father of my children.
“It works both ways, you know, like each way and stuff.”
The I’m A Celebrity legend admitted that she has learned to get on with her former partner.
“Me and my ex now, you know we get on fine, like, for our children and stuff. So, so that’s good.
“And I think it’s important for children as well to see their mum and dad be okay with each other.
“I think it’s good for, you know, their mental health and what have you.”
HELEN Flanagan has revealed that she is in a new relationship.
While appearing on Celebs Go Dating, she confessed that she was already taken – here’s everything we know about her boyfriend Robbie Talbot.
Helen has opened up about her relationship with former footballer Robbie Talbot.
He is a decade older than the actress.
Robbie was born in Liverpool on October 31, 1979 which is how he earned his nickname Halloween Hitman in football.
He has played for a series of non-league teams such as Burton Albion, Burscough and Morcambe.
He then became a coach at Ashton in 2010.
Robbie is retired from football.
He left his role as Assistant Manager at Ashton due to family and work commitments in 2011.
It’s unknown what he has done for work since leaving football.
Helen admitted that she was dating Robbie while appearing on Celebs Go Dating.
In a first for the show, it has been revealed that her relationship had to be written into the series due to requirements that those taking part have to be single.
The pair went public at her birthday party on August 10, 2024.
She also admitted that their eldest daughter was most affected by the split as she remembers the pair when they were together.
“When me and my ex split, Matilda was seven, Delilah was four and Charlie was one,” she explained.
“So, you know, Matilda really remembers me and her dad together, the other two didn’t really know any different, but Matilda was more kind of affected by it.
“So I think it was nice that we went to the Winter Wonderland event together. It’s good for them.”
I’m always very respectful to the father of my children. It works both ways.

This was after Helen admitted that she was ‘on block’ on her ex-boyfriends phone.
Speaking on The Mail’s The Life of Bryony podcast, she previously said: “No disrespect to the father of my children, you know, I’ve had three children with him, and I always have a lot of love for him.
“We’re both good people, but together we were very toxic.
“I think a toxic relationship can just damage your mental health a lot, especially when you struggle with your mental health anyway.
“I mean, I’m on block at the moment on Scott‘s phone. I really am. I’m on block.”
