Actress Helen Flanagan has shared a sweet photo of herself cradling her youngest daughter Delilah in a stunning bridal outfit on social media. In the throwback photo, which appears to be from a bridal photo shoot, the former Coronation Street star looked radiant as she dazzled in the white dress decorated with lace detail and just the right amount of sparkle.
Delilah, who is now four years old, was shown being cradled in her arms as her proud mother kissed her child on the cheek. Sharing the picture with her one million Instagram followers, Helen - who recently split up with Bristol Rovers star Scott Sinclair - wrote: "Happy International Women’s Day.
"Here’s to strong women. May we know them. May we be them. May we raise them."

She also added a second image to the post of her other daughter Matilda wearing what appears to be a beautiful baby pink and white flower girl dress, complete with pearls around her neck and a veil, which tugged on the hearts of her fans.
Many fans were quick to comment. "You look beautiful," said one fan as another commented: "Absolutely precious."
The post was flooded with hearts and love-reactions. Another following said: "What a beautiful dress you’d chose blessings to you and your wee ones."
While as admirers flooded to the adorable and empowering social media post following her break-up from former Bristol Rovers footballer Scott, some were left bewildered with some claiming they "didn't think she got married". Another person said that if her wedding had taken place, it might have been her dress.
They said: "What a beautiful dress you’d chose blessings to you and your wee ones."
The pair separated in October after 13 years together. The former Corrie actress and the couple, who have been together since she was just 19 years old, were set to wed next year after becoming engaged at Disneyland Paris in 2018.
Matilda, 7, Delilah, 4, and Charlie, 1, are the couple's three children, and only last year did Helen and Scott publicly announce the purchase of what would have been their "forever" family home. All of that, however, came crumbling down when they decided to co-parent their children after parting ways when they encountered a "rough patch" in the summer of 2022.
Bristol Rovers winger Scott, 33, reportedly feels embarrassed by her love hunt when it was discovered that she joined the celebrity dating app Raya regardless of the fact that they are no longer together.
A source told The Sun: "Helen has been feeling more and more positive about the future since the new year and feels ready to enjoy some nice dates and male company. She’s feeling super-confident since her boob job and just thought why not?
"Helen and the kids were having a great weekend in Paris and she felt ready to dip her toe back in the water.
“Dating doesn’t have to be serious — it’s not about finding a rebound relationship. Helen just wants to enjoy life again.
"Obviously, it’s not nice for Scott to hear. He feels humiliated but it is what it is."
