HELEN Flanagan touched down in Bali to spend New Year’s with David Haye – but fans were distracted by a small detail in the former Corrie star’s Instagram photo.

Helen and pro boxer David, who have been on a string of secret dates, are reportedly spending time together on the popular Indonesian island.

Helen took to Instagram this week to share a snap of her at the airport with her kids Matilda, eight, Delilah, five, and Charlie, two.

She captioned the post: “Let’s go ✈️ 🌴 💗✨.”

Wearing grey shorts and a grey jumper, the 33-year-old and her kids smiled and made peace signs with their hands.

But Helen’s innocent photo prompted unwarranted advice from her followers, with some casting judgment on her for wearing shorts on a plane.

One comment read: “[You’re] going to be freezing on a plane dressed like that.”

Another follower wrote: “Your shorts are giving me anxiety. Not because I’m worried you’ll be cold, or seeing your legs offend me. But the thought of your bare skin touching the scabby aeroplane seats.”

A third commenter implied shorts should be exclusively worn while working out, writing: “This is not a gym.”

However, not all her fans were as negative, with many wishing Helen and her kids a fun and safe holiday.

One comment read: “Have the best time EVER with your babies!!”

Another read: “Have a great time, you deserve it.”

David’s girlfriend of three years Sian Osborne, 31, is also in Bali. The champion boxer previously had a throuple relationship with Sian and pop star Una Healy.

A source said: “David and Helen are both going to Bali and will be spending time together. She is really keen on David and they have enjoyed some great dates as a couple.

“Helen is aware of David’s relationship with Sian and is open-minded enough to date him, while he is dating her.

“Bali is a very special place for David, and Helen will be going out there with him over the Christmas period.

“Helen is aware that David dates in throuples but, as far as she is concerned, she is only dating David not Sian.”

Helen, 33, and David, 43, became friends when they appeared on ITV’s I’m A Celebrity in 2012.

Initially, he said of her: “She’s a real cute little chick but she stinks of fake tan.”

They both attended The Sun’s Military Awards that year and reconnected earlier this year after being matched on the celebrity dating app Raya.

They then exchanged flirty messages before going out on several dates.

Last month, Helen posted a TikTok video with her daughter, Delilah, who said: “My mum’s going on a date and I think she said he’s very hot.”

She is also said to have told pals she really likes David.

In May, Helen was snapped with him and Sian at a London party but friends said she dated him only recently.

The actress, who played Rosie Webster in Coronation Street, split from her fiancé, Bristol Rovers footballer Scott Sinclair, in July last year after 13 years together.

The pair have three children together.
