HELEN Flanagan confirmed her Celebs Go Dating signing in style last night with a racy red outfit.
The former Coronation Street star, 33, went braless in the glamorous plunging top, which perfectly matched her rouge pout.
Alongside the fun clip, she told her followers: “Very excited to be joining the agency this summer.”
She then wished the dating experts Anna Williamson, Paul Brunson and Dr. Tara good luck, hinting she might not be the easiest person to fix up.
Her appreciative fans complemented her post, with one writing: “On fire, Helen.”
Another said: “Gorgeous Helen.”
A third shared: “Love those red lips.”
Helen is back on the market and looking for love after her relationship with footballer Scott Sinclair – the father of her three children – ended in 2022.
She’ll be joined on the E4 show by the likes of Ella Morgan from Married At First Sight UK and pop star Jamelia.
It’s a novel approach to finding a man after trying her luck on elite dating site Raya.
Opening up to The Sun last year, Helen said: “After being in a long-term relationship, I’m trying to find myself and do things that I really love.
“Maybe I’ll find The One in my 30s and maybe I’ll go on to have just one more baby if it feels right.
“I’ve got enough on with my three, but perhaps I’ll have another. I would never rule it out.”
Dating hasn’t been easy for Helen, who earlier this month revealed her struggles in the wake of her traumatic breakdown with Scott.
In the space of two years, she has spoken about being ghosted, bored by ‘dead chat’ on dates, and having a one night stand.
Helen has always been open about her saucy sex life – including her huge collection of lingerie and sex toys during her relationship with Scott.
She said: “I have pretty much bought every set of underwear Agent Provocateur has ever made and most of it is in Scott’s house.
“I’ve got loads of stuff from nipple tassels to this amazing diamond studded whip from Agent Provocateur.
“But it was getting so embarrassing when Scott’s mum was helping me clear out stuff and all you could see was underwear and this whip. I was getting really flustered, saying: ‘Honestly, I bought it for a shoot’.”
Before she met Scott, teenage Helen was in a relationship with builder Danny Scott.
The pair met at their local gym near their home town of Bolton, Greater Manchester, and she explained how their first encounters were quite literally steamy.
She told The People: “For a while I was at the gym ALL the time just so I could see him. My mum said ‘Wow you really love working out, don’t you?’.
“We actually saw each other first in the sauna and I remember just looking at him and thinking ‘He’s well hot.’
“He’s quite shy and then as we walked out the sauna he went, ‘Oh it was hot in there’. How cute? Of course it was.”
Where stars of Celebs Go Dating are now?
Celebs Go Dating premiered in 2016 and has since aired a whopping twelve series of the show and has helped almost 50 famous faces try and find love.
Whilst many didn’t find their forever partner on the programme, many of the show’s biggest names have nonetheless managed to settle down of their own accord.
- Charlotte Crosby (series 1 – 2016) – The show’s first big signee was Charlotte who was fresh from quitting Geordie Shore and splitting with on-off love Gaz Beadle. On the show, she enjoyed dates with a stripper named Jeavon and MAFS hunk Brad Skelly–years before he took part in the E4 marriage programme. These days, the reality megastar has found love with businessman Jake Ankers and the pair share daughter Alba Jean together. Having got engaged in Dubai last year, with the proposal filmed for her BBC series Charlotte in Sunderland, the TV couple are now planning a wedding of their dreams as well as hoping for more children.
- Ferne McCann (series 2 – 2017) – Ferne was fresh out of the I’m A Celebrity jungle when she joined the Celebrity Dating Agency. Although the TOWIE beauty failed to find lasting love on the programme, she soon became a mother to baby Sunday with her jailed ex, Arthur Collins. These days she is happily with her fiance Lorri Haines and the couple even have their own child together, Finty.
- Jorgie Porter (series 2 – 2017) – Like Ferne, Hollyoaks actress Jorgie was snapped up for the show after a stint Down Under. She is now a mum-of-one to baby Forest and has recently given fans a peek into motherhood and her home life with fiance Ollie for the very first time on ITV reality series, Drama Queens.
- Charlotte Dawson (series 3 – 2017) – Charlotte was all up for a laugh when she headed to the Agency after making a reputation for herself as a wild party animal. During her time on the programme, she enjoyed a sordid forbidden romance with fellow celeb, The X Factor star Frankie Coccozza which quickly fizzled out. Now the star is a mum to two boys, Noah and Jude, with her rugby ace partner, Matt Sarsfield.
- Kerry Katona (series 6 – 2019) – Whilst often known for being unlucky in love, Kerry attempted to find the one with a turn on CGD. With three failed marriages and five children under her belt, Kerry treated the programme as a last-chance saloon. Whilst romance did not blossom, she used the agent’s advice with her next partner, fiance Ryan Mahoney whom she met shortly after the series wrapped. Kerry and Ryan are still happily together to this day and live in her stunning Cheshire abode.
- Alison Hammond (series 8 – 2020) – This Morning legend Alison took part in the programme in 2020 after admitting to longing for a partner. Although she enjoyed a slew of successful dates, nothing appeared to last. However, The Sun revealed earlier this month how the TV presenter had managed to win the heart of a Russian toyboy, David Putman.
- Laura Anderson and Gary Lucy (series 11 – 2022) – Love Island star Laura and Hollyoaks actor Gary ended up dating one another after both signing up for the show’s eleventh series. They went on to have a daughter together, Bonnie, but their romance has been on-off with the pair even being separated during Laura’s pregnancy. Although it looked as though the romance had gotten back on track, things appear to have cooled once again in recent weeks.
- Vanessa Feltz (series 12 – 2023) – Vanessa signed up for the show in the wake of her highly-publicised split from her ex, Ben Ofeudo. Vanessa left E4 fans shocked when she was criticised for her rude demeanour on dates and was called out by the show’s agents for her behaviour with the gentleman she was paired up with on the show. Vanessa is still believed to be single almost a year on from the show.
- Adam Collard (series 12 – 2023)– The Love Island bad boy caused tension on the show after he hooked up with fashion model and OnlyFans creator Lottie Moss during filming but later confirmed he wanted nothing more with Kate Moss’ little sis. These days, he is loved up with sports broadcaster Laura Woods with the couple regularly putting on the PDA when out in public.
