Helen Flanagan Opens Up About Life with Boyfriend Robbie Talbot and Co-Parenting Challenges with Ex Scott Sinclair
Former Coronation Street star Helen Flanagan has shared new insights into her life with her boyfriend, Robbie Talbot, as well as her current, strained relationship with ex-fiancé Scott Sinclair. Helen and Scott, who split in 2022 after 13 years together, share three children: Matilda, nine, Delilah, six, and Charlie, three.
Helen’s Co-Parenting Struggles with Scott Sinclair
Speaking candidly on the Life of Bryony podcast, Helen admitted that she and Scott aren’t on the best terms. “I’m on block at the moment on Scott’s phone,” she revealed, adding, “We do each other’s heads in.” While Helen respects Scott as the father of her children, she reflected on the challenges of their past relationship: “We’re both good people, but together we were very toxic.”
Helen explained the impact of their relationship on her mental health, saying, “A toxic relationship can really damage your mental health, especially when you struggle with mental health issues anyway.”
Finding New Happiness with Robbie Talbot
Helen has been dating construction firm boss Robbie Talbot for eight months, and she’s thrilled with the positive influence he’s had on her life. Last month, Robbie moved in with Helen, and she couldn’t be happier. “He’s lovely. I met him at a bar, and I just couldn’t stop laughing. My boyfriend’s actually the funniest guy I’ve ever met,” she said.
Robbie’s support and understanding have also been key factors for Helen. She shared, “He’s so good with my mental health, and that’s what I need most. I need someone who’s good for me mentally and emotionally.” Reflecting on her new relationship, she added, “No disrespect to the father of my children, but he didn’t know how to cope with me. Not everyone does, but Robbie really understands, and it makes me happy.”
Helen’s journey highlights the importance of a supportive partnership, especially for her mental well-being, and she’s grateful to have found someone who brings her the happiness and stability she needs.
