Helen Flanagan and Scott Sinclair called their relationship off last year after 13 years together.
Now, it seems the pair have rekindled their romance after the actress and former Celtic star were reportedly spotted cosying up together in Dubai.
Holidaymakers spotted the 32-year-old Coronation Street alumni and her ex enjoying the UAE sunshine after they checked booked into the luxury 5* Grosvenor Hotel with their three children, Matilda, seven, Delilah, four, and two-year-old Charlie.
An onlooker said: “Helen and Scott are both booked into the Grosvenor and while they're making out they're not together on social media, in reality they have been spending time together with their children," reports the Sun.
“They seem to be close still and appear from the outside to be a really happy family unit.
“A lot of people around the hotel recognise them and think there could be a reconciliation between them but obviously they could also just be there for their children
“They have another woman with them who is helping out with the children - and that appears to have given Helen and Scott time to talk.
“Scott has been spending quality time with their two daughters and it has clearly been really special for them to have that time as a family - especially as they no longer live under the same roof.
“Helen seems totally relaxed and at ease with Scott and has spent time with him in the evenings.
“It’s a very modern set up and seems to be working perfectly.”
Helen and Blackburn Rovers footballer Scott had ended their engagement last October.
Those close to former actress Helen said she feared their relationship was doomed after her engagement ring snapped.
A source at the time said: “Helen's engagement ring snapped earlier this year.
“She's into all things spiritual and had a feeling so she sought guidance from a psychic medium.
“Helen and Scott really tried to work on their relationship but ultimately she saw the ring breaking as a bad omen and one that meant she shouldn't get married.”
Since their break up she has signed up to Raya and is top of the wish list for producers for Celebs Go Dating.
Meanwhile, Scott has kept his head down and appears to be patiently waiting in the wings for Helen.
The pair have remained devoted co-parents to their children, with Scott stepping up when Helen flew out to South Africa to film I’m A Celebrity All Stars last year.
