Helen Flanagan 'eyes up LA' as she prioritises acting after shock split from fiancé

Helen Flanagan is reportedly considering an acting comeback and has set her sights on LA.

The former Coronation Street star, 32, wants to make acting priority this year, it is said, after splitting from her footballer fiancé Scott Sinclair.

Last year, Helen split from her long-term partner after a 13-year romance. The former couple share three children together - Delilah, Matilda and Charlie.

Now, Helen, who played Rosie Webster in Corrie, leaving the cobbles in 2018, want to reportedly widen her horizons, with a source saying there's even talk of a Netflix role.

It comes after Helen said she got her confidence back following a boob job, and the star has been proudly showing off the results.

A source said that Helen wants to feel more in control her career, telling OK!: “She loved her time on Coronation Street and she’s always said the door is open for her to go back. But right now, she wants to try something different and widen her horizons in LA.”

“She’d like to get involved in a gritty role. She’d be open to a film role, or there’s talk of potentially doing something with Netflix.”

The source added that Helen's children are her priority, but after the split from Scott, she's looking for a change.

They said she wouldn't rule out a move to the US, going on: "She wants a change. If the right opportunity came along she would definitely go for it.”

Speaking to OK! in November, Helen said she has some exciting work on the way.

She said: “I’ve got something exciting happening next year, It’s two things actually, but I can’t say too much. I’m excited for next year.”

Helen seems to be seizing life at the moment, and it was reported last month she has signed up to celebrity dating app, Raya.

Speaking about Helen's profile, a source told The Sun: "Helen has been feeling more and more positive about the future since the new year and feels ready to enjoy some nice dates and male company.

"She's feeling super-confident since her boob job and just thought why not?"

They added: "Dating doesn’t have to be serious — it’s not about finding a rebound relationship. Helen just wants to enjoy life again."

Helen and Scott shocked friends and family last year by suddenly ending their engagement after 13 years of dating.

They started dating in 2009 before getting engaged in 2018. They had been due to marry next year before calling time on their romance.

Helen has been proudly showing off the results of her surgery after being unhappy with her 'saggy' boobs.

Last week, she oozed confidence in her latest Instagram offering as she posed in racy blue silk lingerie set.

The ex soap star beamed from ear-to-ear as she posed for the playful snaps while getting herself ready for bed, with fans flocking to the comment section to gush over her gorgeous new look.
