Helen Flanagan on her traumatic Scott Sinclair split: 'It was emotionally traumatising - like a divorce'
Helen Flanagan says separating from footballer Scott Sinclair after 13 years together felt more like a "divorce" than a break-up.The couple first got together when Coronation Street actress Helen was just 19, and they went on to have three children - Matilda, eight, Delilah, five, and their youngest, three-year-old Charlie. After having a break earlier on in their relationship, they separated for the final time in late 2022, and Helen told OK! during our exclusive photoshoot and chat that it was "emotionally traumatic" for her.The couple got engaged in 2018 and moved into their "forever home" in leafy Cheshire in 2021, and had reportedly planned to get married last year.
