Helen Flanagan appears to take swipe at ex-fiancé Scott Sinclair in cryptic Valentine’s Day post

Helen Flanagan appeared to make a dig at her ex-fiancé Scott Sinclair in a Valentine’s Day post.

The pair split in October after 13 years together and share three children, daughters Matilda, seven, and Delilah, four, and son Charlie, 17 months.

Flanagan, 32, celebrated Valentine’s Day by going out for a meal with her son over the weekend, and was seen in photos posted on Instagram donning matching red ensembles for the occasion.

Beside the snaps, Flanagan wrote: “I already have my prince. The only man I’ll ever fully give my heart to, my boy”, adding a heart emoji.

The Coronation Street star was seen looking glamorous whilst holding her boy, as she wore a red dress with a sweetheart neckline and a full skirt, paired with black court heels.

Flanagan was all-smiles in red lipstick as she was pictured stood with Charlie in front of an arrangement of roses on the floor and along the walls and several lit candles.

In more footage posted on Instagram Stories, Flanagan showed her “Valentine’s Dinner” with son Charlie, as he munched on a plate of chicken and chips at the restaurant table.

Flanagan also shared a video of her treating her children to a sweet surprise set-up on Tuesday morning, in celebration of Valentine’s Day.

Her dining table was revealed in a clip to be covered in heart-shaped chocolates and rose petals, along with wrapped gifts, cards and heart-shaped balloons for her kids, who looked very pleased with the Valentine’s surprise.

Flanagan’s love-themed posts come after she recently referenced her ex Sinclair, 33, in another video as she sported black lingerie.

She wrote: “I don’t need anyone to write me a Valentine’s Card telling me nice things about myself.”

Flanagan and Bristol Rovers footballer Sinclair began dating in 2009 before breaking up following a “rough patch” last year.

According to a source, Flanagan has no wish to reconcile with Sinclair and is committed instead to co-parenting their children as smoothy as possible.

An insider told OK! in December: “There is no chance of them getting back together.

“But [Flanagan] does want the kids to see him as much as possible. She recently took them to a match, so she’s really making that effort."
