Helen Flanagan shows off her new lips and 'super blonde' hair after confidence-boosting boob job

Helen Flanagan has revealed her new look after getting a lip filler treatment and fresh new hair colour. The Coronation Street favourite took to Instagram to explain why she decided to have filler in her bottom lip after recently undergoing a confidence-boosting boob job.

Glam mum-of-three Helen, from Bury, spoke into the camera as she applied lipstick in a video posted on her Instagram Stories. She told followers that she had wanted to "even out" her lips because she has a naturally full bottom lip.

She said: "I've actually got really big lips but I've had filler in my top lip. My bottom lip is naturally really full, and then my top lip was noticeably a lot smaller so I've just had a tiny little bit in my top lip, just to even them out because I was over-lining my lips on the top. They just look a little more even now."

On the subject of aesthetics she added: "When it comes to aesthetics, Botox, I just think obviously I don't think you should be doing anything when you're too young. But I'm 32, so obviously I have Botox and that's my choice, and I support women in whatever decisions they choose to make."

With a 'before' image she wrote: "No filler here on my lips when I filmed this. But now I've had a tiny bit in my top lip to even out." Helen, a doting mum to daughters Matilda, seven and Delilah, four and a one-year-old son Charlie with Bristol Rovers footballer Scott Sinclair, showed that her makeover didn't stop there.

Posting a picture of herself with a fresh blonder hairdo, she wrote: "We went super blonde." Helen, who played Rosie Webster in Corrie, looked sensational in a cute white woolly jumper and matching skirt.

Earlier this month Helen revealed that she'd had a secret boob job after stopping breastfeeding. She posted a frank video on her social media page as she waited to be reunited with her kids after the surgery.

The star admitted she was nervous as she explained about having the procedure to boost her confidence after noticing that her breasts had changed after breastfeeding with all three of her children. The actress said she was always "really busty" but decided to take action when her boobs became "saggy" after nursing for three years in total.

"Hi, so I wanted to pop on here. I'm actually really nervous about sharing this actually but I've had a boob job," she said. Helen explained: "It's just something that I did for myself, I really wanted to do it for my confidence. I have been really nervous about sharing this."

She continued: "Obviously I very much am for body confidence, and very much for supporting other women, but supporting women in all choices that they decide to do. I think if something really is bothering you, then I think, you know, it's a good thing to do something about it."

Helen said she never thought she would have a boob job, explaining: "I never thought I would have a boob job. I was always like, really, busty. I never thought that I would be someone that would need or have a boob job.

"Basically, my boobs just changed so much from pregnancy and breastfeeding. And it's a really tricky one here, because I loved all my breastfeeding journeys. I'm a massive supporter of breastfeeding.

"I think it's an amazing experience that you can have your children and I would do it, you know, time and time again. But in total, I probably breastfed for about, I would say about three years."

She added: "'I think it's because I was quite big and busty before. There's no other nice way, I keep trying to think of a nicer way to say it. But they just sagged. There's no nicer way to say it, but they just became really saggy and I can't think of a better way to say it and it just affected my confidence."

Helen played Rosie in Corrie from 2000 before going on maternity leave in 2018 to have her second child Delilah. She says having children changed her body as her frame changed and she lost weight from hyperemesis gravidarum, a pregnancy complication that causes excessive nausea and vomiting in all of her pregnancies.
