Strictly Come Dancing star Helen Skelton has revealed that she has tried to bribe her son with £20 to get him to sleep in his own room.

Helen recently opened up about the joys and difficulties of motherhood as she continues to co-parent her kids - Ernie, 7, Louis, 5 , and Elsie, 10 months, just months after her split from Richie.

She said: "Mine are terrible sleepers, they like to sleep in my bed which isn’t good, but then other people will be like ‘well that isn’t good?’
