After a brief social media absence, former Coronation Street beauty Helen Flanagan is back to wowing her Instagram followers with busty display in a plunging black dress

Helen Flanagan left very little to the imagination on Good Friday as her social media return stepped up a notch.

The former Coronation Street beauty had been absent from social media briefly after suffering a “bad reaction” to her ADHD medication. But now, 33-year old Helen is back in style in one of her most revealing posts on the plat form yet.

Donning a figure-hugging black dress, she almost spilled out of its plunging design as she posed seductively for the camera. Wearing her blonde tresses styled in waves, Helen completed her stunning look with a smoky eyeshadow and rouge lipstick.

One fan hailed her Insta comeback: “Helen has been away from the gram for a little while and now she posts photos like this.” Another gushed: “You’re giving Marilyn Monroe here babes.”

A third joked: “A magnificent evening for motorboating Ms. Monroe…” And a fourth said: “Wow … icon. I’d marry this woman then marry her again and again.”

Earlier this week Helen bravely opened up on how she had been struggling with her mental health in recent months. She added things had begun since she had broken up with her long-term partner Scott Sinclair in October 2022.

Despite the pair continuing to be good parents to their kids Matilda, Delilah and Charlie, Helen admitted she was in a bad place last Christmas. She admitted she had tried a number of different things to try and pull her out of her depressive emotions, but nothing was working.

Helen also said that she began taking the medication as a way to “cope better with being a working single mum of three, and I was emotionally struggling with the break up from the father of my kids”. The medication she took was to be used for those living with ADHD, and at first the drugs were working.

However, things soon took a turn for the worse for Helen, as she explained that she began to feel paranoid, which then went into a full-blown episode of psychosis. “I had a really bad reaction though to the medication and it sent me into a psychosis for a few days which I didn’t know I was in,” she explained. “This bad reaction though was a few days before rehearsals were starting and sadly I just wasn’t mentally well enough to do it.”
