Ex-Celtic wag Helen Flanagan gives tour of her and Scott Sinclair's 'forever home' with Harry Potter playroom

Helen Flanagan has given her followers a glimpse into her forever home that she bought last year with her partner, former Celtic star Scott Sinclair.

The couple, who share children Matilda, six, Delilah, three, and baby Charlie, 11 months, purchased the swanky pad last August.

The former Coronation Street actress decided to make a Instagram account for their new home to document the renovation process.

The 31-year-old has been sharing snaps of her gorgeous home from the plush grey furnishings in the living room to the dedicated, Harry Potter themed playroom.

A few months ago, Helen first gave fans a look behind the front door but now she has shared the video to her main account, so more people can see her pad.

One of the highlights of the house tour is the children's playroom, which is adorned with Harry Potter items, including a broom over the door and the ceiling painted into a starry night with letters from Hogwarts scattered across the sky.

Helen showed that she kept her kids' plentiful toys under some control with a huge boxed storage unit and credited a business called The Clutter Fairies for helping to install.

Captioning the video, Helen wrote: "So before we moved into our house, Scott and I had always rented with his football and moving.

"Before I always had their toys in the living room so was lovely to have a play room. I worked with a company called The Clutter Fairies (north west based) to organise and declutter my home.

"It was great to declutter properly and give a lot to charity. We labelled the boxes so it was easy for me to tidy away and keep organised. A children’s play room is always going to be a bit chaotic and never perfectly organised but I think this gives some order."

Helen, who played Rosie Webster in the ITV soap, also showed off her living room and her luscious looking grey sofas, which she said had recently been reupholstered.

The grey sofas were accompanied by matching grey curtains, blinds and cushions.

When she moved in August, Helen admitted she was overwhelmed by anxiety and reduced her to tears.

The first week they were there, the family was struck by a sickness bug and then the amount of unpacked boxes became an issue for Helen as she couldn't see a way forward with the unpacking.

She said on Instagram at the time: "I'm trying to get on top of the house. I've actually moved house recently which is exciting but it has been stressful.

"I haven't shared it on my social media. I don't know. It might sound really silly to a lot of people but sometimes sharing some things on Instagram makes me feel a bit anxious.

"Anyway we've been moving house the last few weeks really and I'm not going to lie. I do feel a bit overwhelmed.

"Every single room is like towers of boxes and I can't find anything and organisation is not my strong point.

"So yeah any tips on organisation or when you've moved house on how to basically just get it together. I feel like I just don't even know where to start really."
