Helen Flanagan is 'emotional' as she reaches her due date and fans think they've worked out the sex of her baby

Coronation Street favourite Helen Flanagan is feeling emotional as she prepares to welcome her third child.

The Rosie Webster actress from Bury shared her thoughts with fans as she reached her due date, saying her baby is 'so loved already.'

She posted a glam picture of herself posing with her bump on show wearing a blue blazer with the words 'due date day.'

And fans think the choice of colour might be a hint that she's having a boy.

"It's probably a boy they like to take their time coming into the world," said one fan.

"Must be a boy!" another follower told her.

And another wrote: "It’s a boy then they are the laziest never wana come on time."

The soap star also took to Instagram to share a sweet photo of herself cuddling her two girls Matilda, six, and Delilah, two.

Describing them as 'my world' the doting mum said she felt 'so lucky.'

Helen, who is engaged to Preston North End footballer Scott Sinclair, opened up to her followers about how she thinks her daughters will adjust to the new arrival.

She explained: "Feel a bit emotional today. I know Matilda will be fine but I hope Delilah adjusts okay to be being a big sister."

She added: "Really so excited though and so grateful. Baby is so loved already @scotty_sinclair."

Helen, 30, who has played Rosie in Corrie since 2000, said her third pregnancy will be her last after suffering from Hyperemesis Gravidarum, an extreme form of morning sickness that causes severe nausea and vomiting, which she's had during all her pregnancies.

She wrote: "I am under no illusion that there will be times that I find juggling three children challenging.

"I find the first month of having a newborn quite overwhelming but that’s fine to feel that way.

"I am very grateful to be blessed with three babies. This will be my last pregnancy due to Hyperemesis Gravidarum but I have so many pictures of my pregnancies for memories."

In an adorable treat for her girls during their final weekend as a family of four she organised an Easter theme party with a tent, games and chocolate treats.
