Helen Flanagan speaks out on Coronation Street return and admits ‘it’s all I know’
HELEN Flanagan has spoken out about a potential return to Coronation Street.
The I’m A Celebrity legend previously played the role of Rosie Webster on the ITV soap for over 20 years.
Helen, 34, first appeared on-screen as the daughter of Sally (Sally Dynevor) and Kevin Webster (Michael Le Vell).
She joined the soap in 2000 and stayed on Corrie for 12 years, before making a cobbles comeback in 2017.
The actress then went on maternity leave in June of 2018 but has not been seen on the street since.
Although she was focussed on other projects, the star has now exclusively told The Sun that she would love to return once again to Coronation Street.
In an interview hosted by WhichBingo, she told us: “I would absolutely love to go back to Coronation Street.
“I live now where I did growing up and I’ve moved around so much, you know, with my ex, football and stuff, so I’m back.
“But to be able to do Coronation Street, they would have to ask me back.
“Also if I went back and stuff, I’d want to be in a good storyline and what have you.”
The former Celebs Go Dating star admitted that she only has fond memories of her time on the show.
Helen relished the challenge to be involved in major storylines and she thinks it helped to ‘shape’ her as a person.
“I was on the show from when I was like nine years old, and then from being age 14, I was all in. I was in the big story lines,” she admitted.
“I went back when I was about 27 when I just had Matilda, and then I had to leave because I felt pregnant with Delilah after about 18 months. And I enjoyed it.
“But I think when I was younger, I always did like the big storylines, but when I look back, I was so lucky to be in that from such a young age.
“It really was such an incredible experience and it really shaped me as well.”
What do we know about Helen Flanagan’s new boyfriend Robbie Talbot?
HELEN Flanagan has revealed that she is in a new relationship.
While appearing on Celebs Go Dating, she confessed that she was already taken – here’s everything we know about her boyfriend Robbie Talbot.
Helen has opened up about her relationship with former footballer Robbie Talbot.
He is a decade older than the actress.
Robbie was born in Liverpool on October 31, 1979 which is how he earned his nickname Halloween Hitman in football.
He has played for a series of non-league teams such as Burton Albion, Burscough and Morcambe.
He then became a coach at Ashton in 2010.
Robbie is retired from football.
He left his role as Assistant Manager at Ashton due to family and work commitments in 2011.
It’s unknown what he has done for work since leaving football.
Helen admitted that she was dating Robbie while appearing on Celebs Go Dating.
In a first for the show, it has been revealed that her relationship had to be written into the series due to requirements that those taking part have to be single.
The pair went public at her birthday party on August 10, 2024.
Helen also told The Sun that she has a longing to return to the show, as she misses the constant ‘excitement’ of being on the long-running serial drama.
She added: “I think I’ll always kind of miss it, and I think it’s almost having that excitement in your life, I’ve had that from such a young age I don’t actually know any different.
“So all I’ve known since from being like a young age is either kind of being an actress or being in the public.
“I’ve been in the media, you know, do photo shoots, that kind of thing. That is actually all I know.”
Coronation Street airs on ITV1 and is available to stream on ITVX.
