Speaking to her 1.1million Instagram followers, the former Coronation Street actress said she has been receiving emails from dating sites, including one targeted at ‘MILFS’ (vulgar slang for an attractive woman who has children or is in early middle age).
Helen said she has been signed up to other sites, which she described as “really bad”, but does not know who is responsible.
The mum-of-three said: “I don’t know how someone’s managed to do this but someone is signing me up to all of these dating sites such as MILF. I keep getting all these emails.
“Honestly some of them are just really bad. I can’t even be bothered to read them out. I don’t know who has done this but please don’t!
“I keep getting all these emails and I don’t know how someone has managed to do this.”
Helen is in a relationship with Robbie, from Liverpool. He now works in construction but is a former professional footballer.
Between 1999 to 2005, Robbie Talbot was regarded as a top striker in non-league football, with stints at the Rochdale youth team, Marine, Burscough, Burton Albion and Morecambe football clubs.
Helen appeared at Wirral Magistrates’ Court on Wednesday (January 15) charged with two counts of failing to give information relating to the identification of a driver.
Magistrates said they were not satisfied a ban would cause Flanagan, who already had six points on her licence, exceptional hardship and ordered her to pay a £2,000 fine, £800 victim surcharge and £110 prosecution costs. She was also banned from driving for six months.
Flanagan said the remote location of her Bolton home meant she would “really struggle without a car”.
