Former Corrie star Helen Flanagan has split from her ex-pro footballer boyfriend Robbie Talbot, despite previously saying she wanted to have children with him.
Helen, 34, and Robbie, 45, had enjoyed a romance for just over a year, but now she reportedly wants to focus on her career and children, as a source said, ‘They want different things in life. She has just landed a new acting job and is trying to juggle work projects with the kids.’
Helen shares Matilda, nine, Delilah, six, and Charlie, three, with her ex, Scott Sinclair. Helen and Scott – also a footballer – got engaged in 2018 before calling time on their 13-year relationship in 2022. She went on to meet Robbie in a bar last year, prior to appearing on Celebs Go Dating.
Robbie, who has two children from a previous relationship, moved to Bolton to live with Helen in September but moved out last month after reports that Helen sat him down for a ‘grown-up chat’ telling him, ‘This isn’t working.’
Helen’s now living the single life. She was seen looking gorgeous in a blue one-piece, strolling along the beach in Antibes, France, alone. A post break-up holiday might be just what she needs, as a source said, ‘She just wanted to be on her own for a while, although she still has feelings for Robbie.’
