Helen Flanagan has spoken out on adjusting to life as a single mother, saying she needs some 'adult time' to her herself. The former Coronation Street actress, 32, took to her Instagram Stories on Sunday to discuss the issues she's having getting her daughter Delilah, five, into a good sleep pattern.

Reality star Helen, who recently appeared on I'm A Celebrity. . . South Africa, is also parent to daughter Matilda, seven, and son Charlie, two, with her ex Scott, 32, who she split from last year after 13 years together.

Television personality Helen, who admitted she felt emotional as spent her first weekend alone without her children earlier this month, has welcomed her offspring back to her home, but admitted there are some habits she'd like to change with them.

She explained: 'I fell asleep with the kids last night. So Delilah does this thing where she will not go to sleep without me, not a chance, she will just scream and scream and scream. 'I have spoken to Scott's mum and I think we're going to get them in a different routine. 'Gosh, she's nearly five, but honestly, she won't go to sleep without me.
