Helen Flanagan hits back at mum-shamers telling her to cover up in front of kids

Former Corrie star Helen Flanaganhas taken to social media to hit out at mum-shamers who have told her to cover up in front of her kids, as they state her kids would be ‘ashamed’ of her. Helen first jumped on the camera to show off her sparkly suit, which she revealed she was wearing to Manchester Pride. Under the suit, she donned a stylish Prada bralette, which accentuated her cleavage.

Helen said to her followers: “I will probably get nasty comments because I am showing off my cleavage.” She then opened up on her decision to get a boob job and said she used to be able to tie her boobs ‘in a bow’ after breastfeeding for a total of three years, which is why she decided to get implants.

She said: “I actually get comments, all the time, like ‘oh you’re a mum, you should cover up, your kids would be ashamed of you’, like this is actually my body. Even though I have had surgery from breastfeeding my children, which caused lots of excess skin to my boobs, and put an implant in to make them up again, these are actually their natural size so should I be ashamed of how I look because I am a mum?”

The mum of three added: “I don’t think there is anything shameful about being confident and about being sexy, I don't think that's a bad thing and I don’t understand how that makes you a bad mum. Don’t get me wrong, I am not perfect, but I try and show my children the importance of being kind. Never ever drag other women down”.

Helen went on to say that she doesn’t feel 35 and doesn’t feel like a mature person and stated how she likes to dress ‘young’. She said when she is 10 years older, she will still dress however she wants to.

Helen shares a large chunk of her life on social media and was recently praised by her followers after she shared an honest video on the realities of parenting, as she revealed a moment when her son was overly energetic late at night.

Helen shared a video where she was seen sitting on the floor in her pyjamas as she called to her son to "come to mummy". However, her son Charlie was running wild around the room as she attempted to get him to calm down.

"Charlie, can you come to mumma? I love you so much, can you listen to mumma because I want to give you a cuddle. Charlie, listen to mummy," she tried reasoning with him as he continued to ignore her. He eventually gave in and ran towards her for a hug. Helen then went through a little speech with him to get him ready for bed.

Fans shared praise for the Celebs Go Dating star, with one rushing to the comment section to tell her she's "doing an amazing job".

One fan said: "Think this is amazing. You kept calm and in turn that helped him it's called Co regulation for the uneducated out there who are saying show him who is in charge."

Another added: "Love this, you're such a good mom. Boys are wild, so much energy and so loveable".
