Former Coronation Street actress Helen Flanagan and footballer Scott Sinclair made sure they pulled out ALL the stops for their daughter Matilda’s first birthday.

It was a massive, colourful and major Peppa Pig affair – complete with an appearance from Peppa herself.

Helen’s little girl turned one a week ago, and the couple couldn’t resist sharing some snaps of the special day with the rest of the world.

There were amazingly crafted Peppa Pig balloons:

Peppa herself even joined the party:

Matilda looked super adorable in a pink dress complete with pink bows:

There was even a special Peppa Pig bouncy castle:

It was a real family affair:

Awwwwww!

Helen, 25, has really settled into family life after having Matilda a year ago – keeping her personal business firmly out of the spotlight. She’s definitely way more low-key these days.

A source close to Helen told us last year that motherhood has helped her get over her battle with depression:

“Helen’s been on cloud nine since having Matilda.

"She’s told friends motherhood has helped bring her out of her depression and stopped her dark thoughts.

"She said that having her daughter is like having a constant happy pill. She feels like a completely different person.”

However, she hasn’t ruled out a return to television, especially returning to her roots at Corrie.

She said: "I would absolutely love to go back to Coronation Street one day - but it would have to work around Matilda.”
