Helen Flanagan Forced to Sell £1M Mansion After Going Broke

BBG News

Helen Flanagan has confessed that it may be difficult for her to adjust to a smaller living space, as she is compelled to part with her eight-bedroom £1 million house in Lancashire due to financial difficulties following her separation from former fiancé Scott Sinclair, leaving her financially strained.

Previously known Corrie actor, aged 34, acquired an extravagant home in Bolton together with footballer Scott prior to their separation in 2022. However, following the financial impact of their breakup, she has announced her intention to relocate to a more modest dwelling soon.

On the latest episode of The Declutter Hub podcast, Ingrid Jansen and Lesley Spellman found her expressing a sense of being grounded, yet acknowledging that relocating would prove challenging.

She additionally disclosed that although the house is currently listed for sale, she remains unsure about her upcoming residence location. She hinted that London could potentially be financially prohibitive for her.

Helen shares parenting duties for her children Matilda (nine), Delilah (six), and Charlie (three) with her former partner Scott. However, she is currently involved with Robbie Talbot, who resides in Liverpool and has children of his own there.

She mentioned about the upcoming move, saying, “We’re putting the house on the market right now, and I’m looking forward to the change. Since I’ve been with Scott for such a long time, I’ve become accustomed to moving houses frequently (due to his football career), so it feels natural to me.

‘I could now never stay in one place for too long I don’t think. I like a change, I love it.’

She mentioned: ‘I find it distressing to think about moving away from this house in the near future, as I’ve invested a considerable amount of time and money into it. I’ve used a significant portion of my savings to give it an attractive appearance. With eight bedrooms, maintaining it can be quite challenging – it’s quite a task.’

When I relocate, I may find it challenging to reduce my possessions – I don’t wish to appear casual about it. However, it will feel unusual and unfamiliar. Nonetheless, it would become more bearable for me.

I’m currently undecided about my next residence, as I’ve long dreamt of living in London, yet the cost variation is significant. However, it offers great opportunities for work, and I’m open to new experiences. The past few years have been tough on me, so a change, particularly a fresh start, would be delightful.

She mentioned that her significant other, who hails from Liverpool and is a father of two, is also a factor in their potential move. She further stated, “However, I am confident that the ultimate choice will be mine to make.

Reflecting on our podcast conversation, I couldn’t help but share some nostalgic moments about the home I’m parting ways with now. Each memory attached to this place feels like a cherished keepsake.

She mentioned that the current house she’s residing in is where she’s been for four years, which is quite significant given that when she was with Scott, they moved homes so frequently that she can’t even recall exactly how many houses they lived in – Swansea, London, Scotland, Cheshire, and various other places.

Initially, we were renting a place, and it was delightful to eventually purchase this house, which felt like our own family home. Unfortunately, things didn’t turn out as planned for me personally, but overall, having a family home has been a pleasant experience.

‘My husband surprised me by purchasing the home where we currently live. It was a very thoughtful gesture. We had returned to my hometown around that time, which was wonderful, but I was still in the early stages of postpartum recovery with our son Charlie, making it a challenging period.’

As someone who calls this house home with Matilda (9), Delilah (6), and Charlie (3), I find myself feeling a mix of emotions about our upcoming move. After investing my savings into the property’s renovation, it will be hard to say goodbye. Plus, adjusting to life in a smaller space will undoubtedly require some getting used to.

Earlier this year, it came to light in court that Helen had been experiencing significant financial difficulties prior to receiving a six-month ban on her driver’s license due to two instances of speeding within a 16-day period.

She pleaded to keep her license because, as a full-time mother, she wouldn’t have the means to pay for taxis to transport her children to school otherwise.

Helen claimed her boyfriend Robbie was driving her £66,000 Audi Q7 when it was caught speeding.

Instead, she faced charges for not providing details about the identity of a driver on two separate occasions.

Helen mentioned that her primary role is being a stay-at-home mom since her partner is usually away for work. At present, it’s challenging for her to generate consistent income due to the unpredictable nature of her earnings from social media.

It seems people might assume I can effortlessly afford a driver, but that couldn’t be further from the truth. While I do have sufficient funds in my account to cover my taxes and VAT, those expenses pretty much exhaust my resources.

The opulent dwelling Helen is selling, referred to as her “permanent residence,” showcases an expansive walk-in closet, a captivating Harry Potter-themed playroom, and lavish seating in the lounge area.

Earlier, she playfully revealed a peek of her enchanted room decorated with magical themes, featuring a broomstick hanging on the entrance and a ceiling adorned with stars that spelled out various words associated with Hogwarts.

In another post, Helen gave a peek into her spacious kitchen, which is ideally suited for gathering the family for meals, featuring a gleaming, white interior.

In this newly completed space, both the kitchen and living room feature stylish gray wooden flooring. Notably, the kitchen offers an abundance of cabinet storage options.

Following the well-known soap actress, famed for playing Rosie Webster on Coronation Street, confessed that she is no longer cohabiting with boyfriend Robbie, as he had temporarily relocated to their shared residence.

I couldn’t help but delve deeper into the story behind my 13-year partnership with my former fiancé, Scott. Today, I decided to lay it all bare and share the real reasons why our relationship crumbled, as we went our separate ways.

As her relationship with Robbie continues to flourish, Helen disclosed that the reason he left was due to concerns about her kids, who deeply miss their father being absent.

She shared with The Sun, “I requested he remain for a bit, as I tend to feel quite apprehensive at home alone, and having a male presence makes me feel more secure.

However, Matilda is quite delicate and deeply affectionate towards her father, Scott. She yearns to spend more time with him than they currently do. It’s something that often crosses my mind, considering how much she misses her dad. Perhaps having a new partner around may not alleviate those feelings of absence for her.

In her discussion about her past relationship with Scott, Helen disclosed that it was her decision to end things between them.

I followed their relationship closely, and it seemed like they were constantly ebbing and flowing, reconciling after brief separations, until the day she decided to part ways permanently.

Ultimately, I was the one who chose to end things. I’ll forever feel a sense of sadness that our relationship didn’t succeed, but there’s still affection between us, and we seem to be finding more happiness separately.

Prior to the breakup with Scott, it was disclosed that Helen’s friends had suggested a ‘no-men’ rule for her.

Reflecting on her breakup with Scott, Helen shared with The Sun’s Fabulous Magazine that many of her friends had suggested she abstain from dating men, but as we all know, such restrictions didn’t hold up!

‘I was hurting from the break up and I’ve always just wanted to be loved so I started dating.’

Previously, it was acknowledged that the ex-partners have absolutely no affection for one another, surprising as they hold deep feelings of care towards one another.

On the Naughty Corner podcast with Charlotte Dawson, Helen shared: “I have a strong affection for him, I really care for him, but our personalities just don’t mesh well.

It seems we have no particular fondness for one another; our relationships feels strained. However, I am aware that beneath his reluctance to acknowledge it, Scott harbors feelings for me, and indeed, loves me deeply.

I’ve had enough; I can no longer tolerate constant disputes in a relationship. Frankly, I don’t think I have the energy for another disagreement.

In my case, I’ve always strived to keep things going with the children’s father and I did so. However, if I were in a new relationship, it would need to be effortless for me because I simply don’t have the emotional energy left; I’ve already given all that I could with the father of my kids.

Helen added that co-parenting is amusing since they strive to keep their distance from one another to prevent disagreements when their children are around.

She added: “It’s been two years since I became a solo mom. Sharing parenting responsibilities is quite amusing; we had been a couple for 13 years.

In our recent encounter, his choice of attire amused me greatly – a bucket hat, no less! I found myself teasing him about it, and it seemed as though he was attempting to hide a smile.

We reside in different cities – he in Bath and I in North Manchester, which is approximately a 5-hour drive. We arrange to meet up in Birmingham for an exchange of items as well as our children.

1. “He’s putting items into my shoe, and I began making fun of his bucket hat to make the situation less tense.”

2. “He’s placing objects in my sneaker, so I decided to poke fun at his bucket hat to create a more relaxed atmosphere.”

3. “He’s stuffing things into my shoe compartment, and to ease the tension, I started joking about his bucket hat.”

4. “He’s dropping items in my footwear, so I started making fun of his bucket hat as a way to loosen things up.”

5. “He’s putting objects into my shoe box, and I began teasing him about his bucket hat to bring some humor to the scene.”

We make an effort to avoid living in the same home due to our concern for the wellbeing of our kids. I strive to create a positive atmosphere for them, and I don’t wish for them to witness any disagreements between us.
