Helen is known for her sexy snaps, and today’s offering didn’t disappoint.
The actress looked sensational in her Valentine’s Day inspired lingerie, and took the time to tell fans to “love yourself”.
In the slew of photos, the soap star put on an eyepopping display in a black and red plunging bra with matching knickers.
She teamed the sexy look with a pair of suspenders.
The popular TV star used the opportunity to encourage woman to appreciate their “real” bodies.
Helen wrote next to the racy pictures: “Valentines weekend.
“The most important kind of love is loving yourself.
“I love unedited pictures I think real skin tone is pretty and cellulite is normal.”
Helen’s fans rushed to compliment her and thank her for her words of wisdom, with one writing: “You are bloody amazing mamma!”
Another said: “You go girl! True beaut!”
This one added: “You look incredible and so encouraging to other women!”
WEIGHTY TALK
Earlier this month, Helen revealed how she had put on weight, despite taking part in Dry Jan.
The soap star confessed that she initially cut out alcohol to support boyfriend Robbie Talbot with the challenge.
But she realised she was benefiting from Dry January even though she’d replaced drinking with snacking.
She wrote: “I’ve put weight on this January, I’ve done dry January, I wanted to support my boyfriend with it so did it myself…

“Then I realised my drinking habits probably weren’t the best myself… so cutting down on my drinking as made me just want to snack more. But it’s fine.”
Helen also revealed she’s eating bread and pasta for the first time in two years.
She continued: “My eating habits can be a bit weird (eating disorder from my teens) but I try with it.
“I don’t think as women we’re ever happy, there’s always something to pick at, but I suppose as you get older it’s a nice thing as you just become more comfortable in your skin.”

CORRIE RETURN
It comes after Helen recently teased a return to Coronation Street.
The actress famously played Rosie Webster between 2000 and 2018.
Helen teased fans when she shared a throwback from when she first joined the soap.
Previously speaking to The Sun about a possible return, she said: “I live now where I did growing up and I’ve moved around so much, you know, with my ex, football and stuff, so I’m back.
“But to be able to do Coronation Street, they would have to ask me back.
“Also if I went back and stuff, I’d want to be in a good storyline and what have you.”
