Helen Flanagan’s earlier post about parenting pressures
The hospital update follows a separate social media post in which Helen discussed the pressures of motherhood.
Weeks earlier, the actress had described feeling exhausted while trying to keep up with family life and work.
She wrote: “Tired Mum. Overstimulated. Sick of the arguing. No words for how much I love them.”
Helen also described feeling guilty and struggling to respond to work emails, messages and friends.
Those comments came before Charlie’s hospital visit and were not a response to Wednesday’s update.

Helen has previously discussed finding co-parenting emotionally draining and feeling guilty when work commitments take her away from her children. She has also spoken about therapy helping her accept her emotions.
The former couple reportedly ended their engagement in October 2022, after more than 13 years together. They now co-parent their three children.
Helen is best known for playing Rosie Webster in Coronation Street. Her most recent appearance on the cobbles was in 2018.
