"My One Night Stand."

Helen told fans: "After 13 years of being wifed off, I've spent this year trying to find myself and start dating again.

"Let's just say it's been an experience..."

She added: "In conclusion we're hoping for a better 2024."

Helen and her ex Scott, 34, are both committed to co-parenting Matilda, eight, Delilah, five, and two-year-old Charlie.

He currently plays for Bristol Rovers, so lives nearly 200 miles away from Helen and the kids just north of Manchester.

He sees the children regularly, but relations between Scott and Helen themselves are still healing, and for now, they communicate mainly through their parents.

Speaking about ending the relationship with The Sun, Helen said: “It was a mutual decision and, personally, I felt as a mum that this was the best thing for my children.

"I want them to see healthy relationships and to be in healthy environments. I think if you’re unhappy then that projects on to them.

“Especially when you have daughters, you feel like you have to set an example. I always ask myself: ‘What would I want my daughters to do? What would I want for them?’

"I’d want them to be happy. I wouldn’t want them to feel stuck.”
