Helen Flanagan and Scott Sinclair seen together for the first time since their heartbreaking split
HELEN Flanagan and Scott Sinclair have been seen together for the first time since they split.
The former Coronation Street star shared a video of her returning home after appearing on I’m A Celebrity South Africa.
Bristol Rovers footballer Scott, 34, is seen waiting for Helen, 32, on the stairs with their three children.
The couple – whose split last year was revealed by The Sun – share Matilda, seven, Delilah, four, and Charlie, two.
Helen wrote: “Found this video of when I came back from the jungle. I was away for one month and never left my babies before.”
She and millionaire sportsman Scott were together for 13 years – with the couple starting dating in 2009.
She explained that they split before she went to South Africa to film the show in September – but kept her ring on to keep the break-up under wraps.
The actress told OK!: “I did wear my engagement ring when I was in the jungle.
“We’d only just broken up, and I didn’t want everyone to be asking, ‘Where’s your ring?’ I wanted to keep it private for the kids.”
She added: “I just hope we can be good friends and co-parent. A lot of people say: ‘Oh, stay, make things work for the children.’
“But children need happy parents and they need a happy environment, so it’s not always so straightforward.”
The Sun revealed in October that Helen, who played Rosie Webster in Corrie, and Scott had called time on their relationship.
They did reunite in Dubai and spent time together with their children when he was on a break from training in April.
However, they weren’t pictured together and Helen later insisted they had not rekindled their relationship.
She said, after being seen with her ring on again: “Scott was there on a break from training, so we spent a day together with the kids. That was it.
“I didn’t even think about wearing a ring on that finger. My ring is my ring, it’s for my girls.”
