Many of the comments Flanagan receives are so explicit and invasive that she had to adjust her account settings to avoid seeing them, using filters that block extremely inappropriate content.
With over a million followers on Instagram and thousands on X (formerly Twitter), Helen discussed the situation in an interview with Daily Star Sunday:
“I receive strange messages on social media. They’re scary. I don’t like them, so I just ignore them. I don’t respond. I really don’t pay attention. My Instagram censors many of the really bad ones. It’s something on my account. If someone sends something really inappropriate, I can’t even open it.”
Despite the discomfort, Helen remains active on social media, sharing moments from her personal and professional life. The model sees social media as a positive space to connect with other women and mothers who relate to her life and experiences, aiming to use her visibility to inspire and support her audience.
“I love all the messages I receive from other women. Many mothers reach out on social media. I like it when women feel they can relate to me. I enjoy connecting with them.”
In addition to her digital presence, Helen continues to invest in her TV career. After gaining prominence as Rosie Webster in “Coronation Street” and appearing on shows like “I’m A Celebrity” and “Holby City“, she recently returned to the spotlight with “Celebs Go Dating“.
