Helen Flanagan wowed her social media fans on Thursday night as she glammed up for a romantic date night in Dublin with her handsome ex-footballer boyfriend Robbie Talbot.
The former Coronation Street star is in a relationship with famous footballer Robbie, with Helen revealing the news during an episode of Celebs Go Dating last month in which she confessed that she was finding it “very difficult” to connect with her dates on the show because she was “comparing everyone” to her beau. Helen, 34, told her 1.1 million Instagram followers this week that she was heading out for a date night in the Irish capital with her boyfriend as she filmed herself getting ready.
The star looked incredible in a plunging grey mini-dress that showcased her enviable curves and toned figure while she paired the glam outfit with a pair of sheer black stockings.

But Helen's loyal following rushed to her defence and told the negative critics to keep their thoughts to themselves. One fan hit back, writing: "Omg some of the comments are so rude if you don't like Helen why the hell are you following her get a life leave her alone, she's stunning."
The pair’s romantic date night comes after Helen opened up about her relationship with Robbie, who has played football for the likes of Burton Albion and Morecambe, during a recent interview with Lorraine Kelly on ITV’s Lorraine.
As part of the interview, the soap star revealed that they started dating early in 2024, which was around the same time she signed up for Celebs Go Dating.
“It's not his thing at all. He's a really blokey bloke, and coming on a reality show is not his thing. But he's really sweet he came on the show with me. I thought it was really nice because I remember watching Celebs Go Dating as a single mum last year,” she said.
“You think, 'Am I going to find that again? Am I going to find someone who is really going to love me and love my children?' I thought it was further down the line for me. But I thought it was nice for other single mums for me to bring on such a lovely, healthy relationship.”
Prior to her relationship with Robbie, Helen had been in a relationship with footballer Scott Sinclair and the pair share three children together. However, they called time on their 13-year long relationship in 2022.
