Helen Flanagan hits back at mum-shaming trolls with sexiest ever lingerie snaps

HELEN Flanagan has taken to social media to criticise internet trolls alongside some revealing selfies.

The star, who is mum to Delilah, five, Matilda, eight, and two-year-old Charlie, shared a series of sultry snaps in a bid to silence mum-shamers.

Helen, wrote a lengthy post to Instagram where she bashed those who "mum-shame" her and insisted she is a "good mum".

The actress looked stunning in a variety of lingerie, as she swiped at social media users who shame the way she dresses.

Helen explained her thoughts in the caption, writing: "Here’s a question... Why is mum shaming a thing but dad shaming isn’t?"

She went on to say: "I’ve always been and will always be such a good mum. It’s the most important job I’ve ever done! But I’m also a woman, and it’s been a tumultuous year and honestly, I’m just learning to look after myself and have fun along the way."

Helen also praised wearing lingerie, adding "lingerie always makes me feel confident and sexy."

She reflected on "reconnecting" and "finding" herself again and admitted that she currently feels "the best" she has ever felt.

However, Helen also didn't fail to call out her haters, pointing out: "But each time I post I get flooded with messages calling me a bad mum or saying mums shouldn’t look or dress or behave like this.

"But why? Why do we have this old fashioned idea of how mums should look and dress and behave?

"Honestly, I’m happier now than ever and guess what? That makes me a better mum too."

She signed off the post, stating: "Let’s leave the sexist mum shaming behind."

Fans of the blonde beauty took to the comments to share their support, including fellow TV star Carol Vorderman, who penned: "You do you Helen.....mum shaming is about the person saying all of those nasty things and not about who they aim it at. Shame on them."

A second agreed: "Well said, these people that make these horrible comments obviously have issues with themselves."

A third commented: "Being a mom made me even more confident i say flaunt it whatever your shape if you’re happy who cares what ppl think."

Helen looked amazing in the images, whilst rocking an array of underwear, including a black lace two-piece, a teal lingerie set and a cut-out bodysuit.

The post comes after Helen was ‘holiday shamed’ when fans slammed her for ‘begging for freebies’ on social media.
