The Sun has contacted Helen for comment.
It comes just weeks after she finished filming for ITV’s I’m A Celebrity All Stars in South Africa.
Former Coronation Street star Helen, who played Rosie Webster in the ITV soap, was due to marry Scott in 2024.
The pair got engaged in 2018 and Helen said earlier this year how she had finally found the dream location for their wedding.
She said: “I have been really picky which is why it’s taken me so long but I have managed to find the perfect venue.
“Unfortunately they can only fit us in in 2024 but we have been together so long, I’ve ben with Scott since I was 19, it already feels like we’re married – which is why I’ve been so laid back.
“I have been so busy with the three children as well.”
Helen welcomed the couple’s third child, son Charlie, in March 2021.
The pair also have daughters Matilda, seven, and four-year-old Delilah.
