I would love another girl, I think I’m good with girls because I know what to do! But I would equally love a son because it would be a completely new experience.
What is Helen Flanagan’s baby named?
Proud dad and professional footballer Scott broke the news on Instagram, sharing a sweet black and white snap of himself and Helen with their newborn son captioned:
I couldn’t ask for a better gift on my Birthday, what a blessing!!! welcome to the world son. Charlie Scott Sinclair 25/03/21💙.
The comments section was flooded with messages of congratulations from fans and fellow celebs alike, including Helen’s former Corrie co-stars Kym Marsh, Brooke Vincent and Michelle Keegan. Footballers John Terry, Kieran Tierney and Filip Benković also sent well wishes to the family.
How many children does Helen Flanagan have?
Scott and Helen are also parents to daughters Matilda, 5, and Delilah, 3. Helen previously revealed that their third child would be their last as she had suffered so badly with hyperemesis gravidarum, a severe form of pregnancy sickness which also affected Kate Middleton during her pregnancies.
During an interview with The Sun in January, Helen revealed:
I always really wanted four children, but after the hyperemesis this time, I could never go through it again. So the decision about having more children after this one has been taken out of my hands, really.
