Helen Flanagan looked sensational as she arrived at the Pride of Britain Awards on Monday night, wearing a stunning pink silk gown as she walked the red carpet with boyfriend Robbie Talbot
Former Coronation Street star Helen Flanagan turned heads at the annual Pride of Britain Awards on Monday evening. The 34 year old actress, who recently appeared on E4’s Celebs Go Dating, took a break from her mum duties to attend the awards ceremony in a stunning pink silk gown by designer Josh Birch Jones.
The vibrant fuchsia dress featured a bandeau neckline that highlighted her collarbones and toned arms. Helen completed her look with a bouncy blonde blow-dry, bold statement earrings, and a statement lip in a complimentary mauve shade.
Accompanying to the swanky awards bash was boyfriend Robbie Talbot, who she recently went public with, following her split from ex-partner Scott Sinclair in 2022. Despite their separation after 13 years together, the couple remain good friends and continue to co-parent their three children.

News broke in September about the blossoming romance between Helen and Robbie, after it was revealed that Robbie had moved into her Lancashire family home following a whirlwind eight-month relationship. The 44 year old construction firm boss has seamlessly integrated into the life of the young mum, often spotted enjoying time in the park with her kids Matilda, nine, Delilah, six, and Charlie, three.
Helen first encountered Robbie at Alderley Edge in February, just before signing up for E4’s Celebs Go Dating. Despite an obvious spark, Helen chose to participate in the show, even sharing kisses with potential matches before realising Robbie was her true love, reports the Mirror.
“I’d always wanted to do the show, it was a great opportunity,” Helen told OK! Magazine. Robbie expressed his understanding, saying: “We weren’t serious at that point, we were just dating. And we communicated the whole way through. I knew all along what was happening.”
Now, months after the show, Helen is full of admiration for Robbie, stating: “I’ve never met anyone like him. He’s not only a lovely man, but he’s really, really funny. And he had the balls to chat me up! Usually, I don’t get that, but he has so much confidence. And he really takes care of me.”
The couple are even hinting at future plans, potentially expanding their blended family which includes Robbie’s children Sophie, 14, and Carina, 10, from a previous relationship.
Helen opened up about her maternal feelings, admitting: “I’m always broody. But my pregnancies have always been hard. I suffer from hyperemesis gravidarum, so I get really terrible sickness. When I was pregnant with Charlie I had such guilt, even now, about not spending enough time with the others because I was poorly. But still, I can’t help but be broody. I love babies.”
