Coronation Street's Helen Flanagan has announced she's only posting unedited photos on Instagram so she can be better role model for her daughters Matilda, four, and Delilah, 23 months.

The actress shared underwear snaps of herself on Instagram and opened up about her decision, explaining, "I’ve decided to stop editing my pictures to be a better role model to my daughters 💞✨

"I’ve been lucky enough to carry two healthy babies and nurse them both for nearly two years."

She went on to detail how her body has changed due to motherhood, saying, "My skin on my stomach has changed, my boobs massively have - the change in my boobs definitely has made me feel less confident in myself but I wouldn’t change a thing 💞✨

"I have cellulite, I don’t have a big bum, I have edited it in the past as it’s something I am self conscious of. I’d look at other women on Instagram and put myself down for not looking like that."

She went on, "Me and Matilda were dancing around here 😅 I want to teach her to love and feel confident in her own skin and that beauty is in the inside and doing that by example x".
