No one is relishing the comfort of sisterhood more than I’m A Celebrity South Africa favourite Helen Flanagan since she’s been back from the jungle, as it’s claimed she’s been turning to her single gal pals for relationship advice.

According to sources close to the former Coronation Street actress, 32, the mother-of-three has been leaning on former Countdown mathematician and I’m A Celeb campmate Carol Vorderman, 62, since her split from footballer fiancé Scott Sinclair last year.

“Helen told Carol on the show that she and Scott had split up, but asked her to keep it a secret,” they told new. “It really brought the two of them close together. And Carol had lots of advice for her on being a single parent.”

Helen and Bristol Rovers winger Scott, 34 – who share daughters Matilda, seven, and Delilah, four, as well as two-year-old son Charlie – announced their decision to part ways in October, but Helen recently revealed in her exclusive break-up interview with OK! that they’d actually called it quits in July, just weeks before she filmed the South African edition of the popular ITV1 series.
