Helen Flanagan reveals parenting struggle
In a series of Instagram Stories this week, Helen shared how she had been struggling with parenting lately. “Having a thing with Delilah at the moment where she just screamed and cries when I leave a room,” she said.
She continued: “She follows me everywhere in the house and I know it’s cute but it’s not as well. I wanted to go for a bath last night and she screamed the whole time. I still co-sleep with Delilah. Do any mums feel me?”
This morning she shared a picture of her waking up in bed with Delilah lying on top of her, captioned “wake up like this,” with a love heart and wide-eyed emoji.
“Got a thing with Charlie when he keeps head butting me,” she went on to say. “Also at the end of the day I feel touched out and feel for for when I’m a snappy witch – anyone else?”
“Did lock myself in the toilet today for five minutes,” she admitted.
