Helen Flanagan shares sensational new bikini snap from family holiday

Helen Flanagan looked radiant in a new bikini snap she shared with her social media followers.

The former Coronation Street actor is currently catching some sun in Barbados with her family and has taken to Instagram to share her movements with her one million fans.

Helen posted a picture of herself standing on a veranda wearing a stunning orange bikini featuring an all-over retro floral design.

The halterneck top accentuated the 32-year-old curves and showcased her washboard abs, while the tie-side bottoms cut a flattering high-leg silhouette.

Going without makeup for the picture, Helen wore her blonde hair slicked back into a tight bun and popped a pair of square-framed sunglasses on top of her head.

In a further update, the actor posted an in-motion video of the bikini to her Instagram feed.

In the short clip, Helen and her three children could be seen having fun around their mum.

Matilda, eight and Delilah, five, were playing a clapping game while the star held her son Charlie, two, on her hip.

However, towards the end of the clip, disaster struck as Helen knocked her sunglasses off of her head and they disappeared onto the grass below the balcony.

She captioned the quick video: “Woke up in paradise,” followed by a coconut and a palm tree emoji.

Eagle-eyed fans were quick to spot that Helen had lost her sunglasses, with many taking the time to point it out in the comments section.

One Instagram user wrote: “Oh no the glasses! The snuggles won.”

Another said: “Oops! Bye, bye glasses. Looks like you’re not too high up so hopefully they were alright? Xx”

Elsewhere, fans were commenting on Helen’s three children, with one calling her family, “beautiful”.

A second user said: “All (sic) your children are gorgeous but Matilda is out of this world.”

The mum-of-three shares Matilda, Delilah and Charlie with her former fiancé, Scott Sinclair.

Scott, 34, and Helen started dating back in 2009 before the Bristol Rovers player popped the question in May 2018.

However, Helen confirmed that the relationship was over after she appeared on I’m A Celebrity… South Africa earlier this year and has since said that the pair will continue to co-parent their brood.

The Bury-born beauty is currently abroad with her three children on a solo trip.

Regarding the vacation, Helen took to Instagram earlier this week and wrote: “Summer holidays started can’t wait to make some special memories with my beautifuls.”
