She hit back at mum-shamers who criticised her for saying she was weaning her daughter Delilah at five months old. 

And in a candid interview with OK Magazine this week, Helen Flanagan has revealed how she tries to ‘ignore the negative comments, as she confessed that ‘being a mother is hard enough without being judged’. 

The former Coronation Street star, 28, said: 'I like to use Instagram to be open and honest and I believe each to their own, so I try to ignore the negative comments.

Her pride and joy: Helen hit back at mum-shamers who criticised her for saying she was weaning her daughter Delilah at five months old

'I never reply to them, as it adds fuel to the fire. Women should be supporting each other, especially us mums.' 

She added: 'We all have different ways of looking after our children and being a mother is hard enough without being judged.’

Earlier this month, the mother-of-two brutally hit back at those who criticised her for introducing her littlest daughter to solid foods at five months old.

Honest: The former Coronation Street star, 28, continued: 'I like to use Instagram to be open and honest and I believe each to their own, so I try to ignore the negative comments'

She wrote on Instagram: 'So this morning I posted about weaning my baby girl at nearly 5 months and I got quite a lot of negative comments.

'I know a lot of Mums follow me so I wasn’t being irresponsible posting that I’m weaning my baby who’s nearly five months.

'I’m not an expert but I do think each baby is different. Matilda was walking at 11 months and some little ones take longer with that but she wasn’t great with her food.

Love: Helen and her footballer fiancé Scott Sinclair are parents to Matilda, three, and Delilah, five months

'I suppose they all go at their own pace and Delilah is loving little baby fruit purées and is really interested xxx.'

Meanwhile, the star spoke about her wedding to the publication, revealing she has yet to start planning.

''I would love to have a Christmas wedding, but I’m going to wait until Delilah is one next June before I make any plans,' she explained.  

Words: Helen's original post explained why she had decided to wean Delilah but she said she had received some negative comments in response 

Something to say: The Coronation Street actress wrote a lengthy post in response to the negative comments 

‘I think the girls will absolutely love it, Matilda will love wearing a pretty dress – she will be in her element. I feel like Scott and I are already married.’

Speaking about her life with her fiancé Scott Sinclair, Helen confessed that her beau would like her to cook the Christmas turkey this year.

She said: 'Scott wants me to cook, which is hilarious! I’m going to have to start practising. 

'I’ve never done Christmas dinner before and I’ve only ever cooked one roast in my life!’

And the actress also reminisced about her I'm A Celebrity days: 'It’s such a great show and it was really cool to be a part of it, although I was a rubbish contestant – probably the worst ever.

'I found it so difficult and I could never do it again. I think I was a warning to other people who thought it could be an easy ride.'

She added: 'I remember my mum called me up the night before I went into camp and said: "It’s not too late to back out."'

To achieve her kick-ass figure, Hayden – who plays cheerleader Claire Bennet in Heroes – follows the ‘quartering’ rule. She eats only a quarter of the food on her plate, then waits 20 minutes before deciding whether she needs to eat again.

Hayden says: “I don’t have a model’s body, but I’m not one of those crazy girls who thinks that they’re fat. I’m OK with what I have.”

Nicollette says: “I don’t like diets – I see it, I eat it! I believe in eating healthily with lots of protein, vegetables and carbs to give you energy.”

SATC star Kim swears by gym sessions with Russian kettle bells (traditional cast-iron weights) and the South Beach Diet to give her the body she wants. To avoid overeating, Kim has a radical diet trick – squirting lemon juice on her leftovers – so she won’t carry on picking.

Kim says: “I am no super-thin Hollywood actress. I am built for men who like women to look like women.”
