Helen Flanagan reveals secret to making her bum look bigger as she opens up about body insecurities after child birth
HELEN Flanagan has revealed her secret to making her bum look bigger as she opened up about her body insecurities after childbirth.
The Coronation Street actress, 35, is a mum-of-three to Matilda, 10, and Delilah, seven, and five-year-old son Charlie.
Taking to Instagram, Helen looked as stunning as ever in a sparkling green gown as she enjoyed a night out.
The TV star revealed: “My friend took this pic of me and I love this dress it’s insane.
“Since I had Charlie my stomach always sticks out a bit if I wear anything tight fitting as he was my third.
“It used to annoy me but I don’t care now it’s quite beautiful how our bodies change as women from carrying babies.”
Helen then posted a throwback clip from when Charlie was a baby.
The video showed her standing in front of a mirror in her underwear, as she pinched and pulled at her slender frame.
She captioned the clip: “I found this video the other day on my phone when Charlie was a baby.
“It’s quite sad as I was hard on myself. x”
The TV star also cheekily posted another shot of herself looking sultry on a staircase and captioned the image: “Also, yes I wear shapewear in tight dresses to give me a bigger bum.”
Helen previously told The Sun how she “felt lost” until she became a mum.
She parted ways from her long-term fiancé in 2022 after 13 years together and she has been open about how it isn’t always plain sailing.
She was also forced out of her £1million family home by Scott as they never married and the house near Bolton was solely in his name.
Back in January, a friend of Helen’s said: “Scott pays for the house and all the bills and he’s decided a six-bedroom place is way too big for Helen on her own with the kids.
