Helen Flanagan told to 'put them away' as she's mum-shamed over outfit

Helen Flanagan was mum-shamed once as she was told to 'put them away' after setting off the trolls by wearing a lovely low cut dress.

The 33-years-old has just returned to Instagram after taking a short break due to her mental health struggles - and already the mean messages are arriving from people who couldn't help themselves. In her most recent Instagram post, Helen shared a cute photo where she could be seen holding her youngest son Charlie in her arms.

The former soap star looked radiant as her yellow floral dress. Styling her makeup to perfection, the star's looked happy - that was before the mum-shamers found their voice, the Daily Star report. She wrote under the picture: "Happy Easter. It's my little boy and nephew's 3rd birthday party today."

But some people who saw the picture said Helen was trying to make people look at her instead of celebrating her son's birthday and that her dress wasn't right for the party. One person who didn't like what she wore said: "Lovely attire to distract the attention from a 3yr old birthday."

Someone else then wrote: "Put them away." Another person asked why she was "dressed like that for a kid's party" before another userr added on the platform: "You look beautiful. You're lovely without the boobs on display, really. Keep them for the man that's worth them x."

Just last week, Helen returned to social media after a break and shared a heartfelt message about her mental health struggles, partly due to her split from ex Scott Sinclair, the father of her three children. She said: "Had a few months off from social but I'm back now xxx. So basically I really struggled mental health-wise December/ January xxx. I felt really not great in my head over Christmas and I didn't really feel that much different when I took the kids away for new year xxx."

Helen went on to say: "I had a lot of difficult things going on things I just can't talk about on Instagram x. I felt terrible, so I was due my theatre tour which I was excited about so when I came back from holiday I thought it was best for me to take some medication so I'd feel better and be able to cope better with being a working single mum of three and I was emotionally struggling with the break up from the father of my kids."

"But I had a really bad reaction though to the medication ( an ADHD medication) and it sent me into a psychosis for a few days which I didn't know I was in x. I just love my kids so much x this bad reaction though was a few days before rehearsals were starting and sadly I just wasn't mentally well enough to do it." The star said she now feels happier since going to therapy. She also told fans to "be kind".
