A year after splitting from her footballer fiancé Scott Sinclair, glamorous Helen Flanagan is looking better than ever – and she isn’t afraid to show it.
Now a source tells OK! the 33-year-old is “bursting with confidence” and ready to take advantage of any opportunities that come her way – especially when it comes to showing off her curves.
The mum-of-three posted a string of steamy photos to her socials recently, including a sexy Halloween promotion campaign with lingerie brand Ann Summers, which prompted some admiring fans to beg her to join OnlyFans.
And according to the source, the spicy Halloween snaps are only a taster of what could come from the former soap star.
“Helen has completely regained her independence and she’s looking incredible at the moment,” they told us. “She’s got three children to support and doesn’t want to rely on a man for anything, so why wouldn’t she make the most of what she’s got? Her family, especially her mum, are totally supporting her.
“She doesn’t owe anything to Scott, and she feels beautiful and amazing, so she understandably wants to show that off. And if she can make a career through it, that’s brilliant for her.”
The source says the former Coronation Street actress is “sexy not smutty”, and with a smart head on her shoulders, it could be a winning combination. And while the idea of starting an OnlyFans account might initially have come as a shock to Helen, it’s definitely a consideration.
The source adds, “She feels beautiful and amazing right now, and if all these A-listers can do it, why can’t she?”
Many of Helen’s besotted fans clearly agree, with one writing, “I would follow you on OnlyFans in a heartbeat, beautiful,” and another reckoning the star was, “Definitely getting OF ready!!”
The actress, who played Rosie Webster on the cobbles for 18 years, split from her Bristol Rovers FC player fiancé in July 2022, after 13 years together. The pair first got together in 2009, when Helen was 19 and a major name on Corrie. Scott popped the question in May 2018, but they never made it down the aisle.
Shortly after their shock split, Helen jetted off to South Africa to take part in I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! South Africa, just over 10 years after her first appearance on the show in the Australian jungle. She admitted it was a good “distraction” from the heartache.
After the exes were spotted earlier this year holidaying in Dubai at the same time, rumours circulated that things were back on. But Helen – who was also photographed wearing a sparkly ring on her engagement finger – said there was no chance of reconciliation and that they were focusing on being “friends and co-parents”.
Their children – Matilda, eight, Delilah, five, and two-year-old Charlie – have remained at their Lancashire home with Helen since the split, and, according to our source, she’s “killing it” as a single mother.
“Helen is a fabulous mum – her children are her world,” they say. “She’s driven by her kids and by motherhood, and she wants to provide for her children.”
Helen told her Instagram followers, “This year’s been a lot of growing. I always feel like it’s better to do something than do nothing and regret it, because you learn either way. I like the woman that I’m becoming though and I like what I see in the mirror and not my appearance but me as a person, not perfect but working through what I need to.”
Given her already massive fan base – she has more than a million followers on Instagram alone – our source hinted Helen might consider following in the footsteps of another soap star who has turned her sexy persona into a lucrative earner.
Inspiration may come from former Hollyoaks’ actress Sarah Jayne Dunn, who now reportedly rakes in more than £700,000 a year through her adult content on OnlyFans, which she films in a purpose-built room in the garden at her home.
The 42-year-old, who played Mandy Richardson on the Channel 4 soap for 25 years, was famously axed from the show because of her OnlyFans account, but she refused to back down and has since made it her main source of income.
According to our source, Sarah – who previously said joining the site was “the best decision I’ve ever made” – could be a perfect role model for Helen if she wants to move her own career in that direction.
“Helen really admires women who take their own careers into their hands,” they claim. “She’s watched what Sarah has done and she totally admires her.
“Helen could no doubt also make a killing on there if she did it cleverly. OnlyFans isn’t just about online, it’s a worldwide platform, and if it’s well managed, it could end up leading to other work, like a reality show."
They continued: “Helen is smart and savvy and she’d do really well. Her mum is a big advocate of female empowerment so she would have all the support she needs around her.”
After she shared her sexy Halloween costumes – including a Wonder Woman get up and red-lipped naughty devil look – Helen’s fans were quick to applaud her confidence.
One wrote, “She’s got a fantastic figure after having 3 kids, if you’ve got it, flaunt it,” while another admirer commented, “Let’s just praise the body confidence. I really wish I had that. Helen, darling, keep being you. I’m loving this positive energy.”
We couldn’t agree more. You go, girl!
