Helen Flanagan faces driving ban after ‘failing to inform police who was behind wheel of her £66k Audi when it was clocked rushing’

Helen Flanagan has been pictured arriving at court for driving charge supported by her boyfriend.

Flanagan is facing a driving ban after being caught speeding twice in just over a fortnight, it has been reported.

The former Corrie star, 34, was convicted in September of failing to respond to two notices of prosecution.

She was asked who was behind the wheel when her Audi Q7 was caught going over the limit on July 10 and July 26 in Liverpool, according to The Sun.

She said she thought her ex-footballer boyfriend Robbie Talbot, 45, had contacted the police as he was driving. 

But Flanagan, who played Rosie Webster in the ITV soap, had blamed her boyfriend, saying she was ‘too busy’ working as a single-mother to remember if she had replied.

When asked by Wirral JPs if she had seen the court papers, Flanagan replied: ‘I think I did.’

However, she then added that she was ‘confused’ and that she ‘couldn’t remember’ as she was a ‘busy working single mum’.

Talbot claims he responded on the actress’s behalf but police have insisted they never received the forms.

Flanagan is due back in court at 2pm today and has been warned she could be banned from driving.
