Helen Flanagan has spoken candidly about the struggles of being a single mum, calling herself as ‘the wicked witch.’
The former Coronation Street star, 36, shares Matilda, 11, Delilah, eight, and five-year-old Charlie with ex-fiancé Scott Sinclair, 37, whom she split from in 2022 after 13 years together.
And in a new Instagram post shared on Thursday, Helen detailed her hardship in raising them alone, admitting she feels ‘tired’ and ‘overstimulated’, while also ‘sick of the arguing’ among her children.
While she insisted that she loves them ‘so much’, Helen couldn’t help but keep things real on how she’s been coping.
Over a video of her giving sweet kisses to her son Charlie, Helen wrote the words: ‘Tired Mum. Overstimulated. Sick of the arguing. No words for how much I love them. Due my period. Feel like I’ve been the Wicked Witch of the West.’
She added: ‘Mum guilt. Not been able to get back to any of work emails or wats apps or my friends.’
Helen’s comments come after she emphasised that she does not need a man as she celebrated her 36th birthday in Lake Como.
