Helen Flanagan nearly got removed from Celebs Go Dating after major rule break

Helen Flanagan was almost removed from Celebs Go Dating following a major rule break.

The ex-Coronation Street actress is joined on the latest reality dating show by the likes of Jamelia and Tristan Phipps.

The latest instalment of the popular Channel 4 series is well underway with the drama coming thick and fast, much to the delight of viewers.

But one thing nobody could have predicted was the risk of losing a celeb due to a rule break - but it seems that's exactly what happened.

One of the dating experts, Anna Williamson, revealed to the Sun that Helen has a lot in store throughout the series.

She said: "Helen, I just love her.

"What I will say about her though - and I don’t want to spoil anything - but Helen has the biggest cliffhanger pivot of a storyline that we’ve ever had in Celebs Go Dating history.

"Helen nearly got thrown out of the agency two weeks ago. She did something huge which goes against all the rules of the agency."

We'll have to stay tuned to find out exactly what happened.

Helen, who shares three children with footballer ex Scott Sinclair, was seen breaking down in tears on the show last night (2 September), recalling her relationship with sportsman David Haye.

Anna, alongside fellow dating expert Dr Tara Suwinyattichaiporn, asked Helen about the nature of their relationship.

Helen first met David on I'm A Celebrity! Get Me Out Of Here in 2012, and the two went on to date more recently, with the relationship ending last December.

It then came to light that David was in an open relationship with Sian Osborne - which led to the dynamic between him and Helen being more 'situationship' than relationship.

David is also known for being in a 'throuple' with girlfriend Sian and The Saturdays' Una Healey - Helen denies being part of this, instead insisting they went on dates alone.

Opening up on Celebs Go Dating, Helen shared: "It was quite something, it’s really hard for me to talk about it, he had a girlfriend and an open relationship.

"I didn’t mean to fall in love with him but I did.

"We did have this amazing connection together. We were like fire together.

"It was weird. I think he does love his girlfriend but he loves me as well.

"It just brings me to a part of my life that was quite dark, really."

She went on to add: "I had communication with his girlfriend, but I felt very guilty. I didn't feel nice about it all. It really upsets me because I don't mean to hurt other people but I was just really lonely."

She concluded: "I found it really hard, you know?

"I found it really difficult, but obviously, if you sleep with someone for quite a long time you do fall in love with them, and I was just lonely and it just happened."
