Helen Flanagan hits back at ‘vile, disgusting’ trolls after she is cruelly body shamed on holiday
HELEN Flanagan has hit back at cruel trolls after she was body shamed while wearing a denim bikini top and mini skirt on holiday.
Despite looking incredible while holiday in Mykonos, the stunning Coronation Street noticed some mean comments about herself online after some pictures emerged.
Helen, 32, screenshot a hurtful comment from one person, which shamed her incredible figure and her new boob job.
“She seems to be gaining weight and her new bolt ons are awful” wrote the online bully.
Helen responded with the reply: “I’m 5ft4 and a UK size 6/8 x I’m really proud of my body, I’ve carried and given birth to three children.”
She also screenshot another comment that said she had “pigeon toes, cankles and wonky boobs”, branding the post “vile.”
Understandably upset, the I’m A Celebrity favourite later took to her instagram stories where she shared a video that explained her thoughts in full.
“Maybe I shouldn’t be scoffing lunch seeing as I am gaining weight, she said sarcastically, as she mentioned having food stuck in her teeth.
Helen continued: “I just think it’s disgusting and I am sticking up for myself because I think it is really horrible to speak about other women in that way.
“I am all for women empowerment and I just think you shouldn’t be, especially as mums and everything that our bodies go through, I just think it’s vile.”
Helen added: “I actually have a really fast metabolism, It is all about angles as well.
“I have done modelling for ages and I know the flattering angles but I am really short so sometimes in pictures you can look a bit stumpy and what have you, but I just think it’s really horrible.”
Helen has three children – Matilda, seven, Delilah, four, and Charlie, two – with ex-fiancé and Bristol Rovers footballer, Scott Sinclair, 34,
