Helen Flanagan breaks down in tears and sobs as she celebrates daughter’s birthday after split with Scott Sinclair
HELEN Flanagan broke down in tears and sobbed as she celebrated her daughter Delilah’s fifth birthday.
The mum-of-three took to Instagram to pay tribute to the youngster on her special day with a range of adorable pictures.
Helen, who shares her three kids with ex Scott Sinclair, shared a video of Delilah looking very happy standing with her birthday balloons.
The former Corrie actress then posted a number of pictures from over the last five years, as well as one of her with a tear streaming down her cheek.
Helen said: “Not overly emotional but always cry when it’s my kids birthdays.
“Usually when the cake comes out, crazy how much you love your babies.”
Helen and Scott are also parents to Matilda, seven, and Charlie, three.
Back in October last year the pair split after 13 years together.
A source at the time told us: “Helen has removed her engagement ring and told those close to her that she is no longer with Scott.
“They hit a rough patch in the summer and after she came back from South Africa their relationship ended.
“Helen and Scott are committed to co-parenting their kids, even if they are no longer a couple.”
Recently, she shared a sweet tribute to ex Scotty Sinclair on Father’s Day.
Helen was recently cruelly mum-shamed by trolls after she shared pictures of a chaotic night with her three kids.
She explained how she was attempting to take a cute selfie with her kids – but many pointed out she shouldn’t have had a glass of wine in her hand.
Yet one troll was more concerned about the glass of wine she had in her left hand.
They replied: “Ok drinking & being drunk whist looking after children is not on.”
Helen was clearly not drunk while the picture was taken.
And fans were quick to have her back, with one writing: “There’s always one, mind your business!”
Another raged: “Ffs get a life!! One glass of wine so what?? Bet ur life is very boring!! Beautiful pics.”
