Helen Flanagan looks emotional as she admits she's struggling in candid admission about 'being on her own'

Helen Flanagan appeared emotional as she spoke directly to her fans and admitted she's 'really bad at being on her own'. It came after the former Coronation Street star appeared in a video posted to her Instagram Story in which she appeared in despair as she sat in her car.

She explained that she had a flat tyre and said: "I can't even make it up the hill," as she rubbed her face in the black and white video. "Broke down last night. So annoying with Charlie in my car," she wrote alongside the clip. Helen then appeared in a follow-up video saying she woke up and had 'completely forgot' about her flat tyre and was waiting for a taxi to pick her up to take her son, Charlie, to nursery.

The actress, who is famed for playing Rosie Webster in ITV's Corrie, then posted another video in which she appeared to be hunkered down on her sofa. She appeared make-up-free and rubbed her face in the clip as she appeared tired. Helen said she needs to 'constantly' be surrounded by friends or her children.
