But taking to her Instagram Story, she re-shared an emotional post from pregnancy and motherhood app, Peanut.
It read, “I’m okay with saying sorry to my kids, because some days I’m not the mother that I want to be.
“Some days I’m touched out and overwhelmed. I’m far from perfect and I want my kids to know that’s okay.
“You can apologise and start again. We all have our moments, but we got this.”
The former Coronation Street star frequently faces mum-shaming from online commentators for her choice of revealing attire.
Earlier this month, her sizzling bedroom snaps came under fire.
The TV personality stripped off to a sexy lingerie set for a series of hot shots.
The flirty star wrote: “Let’s cuddle and watch Harry Potter.”
However, not everyone was pleased about the saucy content, with one writing: “Disgusting with three young children must be desperate.”
Another said: “Helen you don’t need to show off to look beautiful, you really don’t.”
A third asked: “For what purpose do you post these provocative photos?”
These people were in the minority though, with many bowled over by the glamorous photos.
“Oh my ….. you look amazing Helen,” wrote one.
Another said: “What a sexy lady and very sexy body.”
A third posted: “Honestly you so gorgeous, getting better as you get older.”
