Helen Flanagan has addressed the David Haye “throuple” hypothesis. The former Coronation Street actress, 35, was romantically concerned with the retired boxer, 45, throughout 2023 before their cut up in December. Speculation swirled that she shaped a “throuple” with David and his girlfriend Sian Osborne, but she has firmly dismissed this.
Helen also confessed she ‘fell in love’ with David during their relationship and believes he ‘loves’ both her and his girlfriend Sian. The cleaning soap actress has now revisited her past romance in her new autobiography, Head and Heart. Dismissing the “throuple” hypothesis, she penned: “I’m not a prude, but I’ve never been into that – it was David I liked.”
Speaking to the Daily Mail, she explained: “The relationship that I had with David was just David on his own. My evenings were just spent with him, that’s what only ever happened.”
When questioned about being half of the “throuple”, she firmly responded: “No, no, no, not at all.”
Discussing the event when she bought a Cartier Trinity bracelet for the boxer’s birthday and personally delivered it to his resort, she grew to become emotional.
She questioned: “Did I put that in the book? Oh, god, that actually makes me cry. I don’t know. Sorry. It’s really hard. That is a little bit embarrassing.”
Helen continued: “Why did I do that? Because I wanted him to love me properly.”
The mother-of-three also acknowledged: “It was such a toxic situation. Since then, I’ve learnt to love myself. To be a stronger woman.”
Helen beforehand labelled her affair with David as a “situationship”.

Speaking to the Celebs Go Dating consultants in 2024, she revealed: “It was quite something, it’s really hard for me to talk about, he had a girlfriend and an open relationship.
“I did not imply to fall in love with him but I did. We did have this wonderful connection together. We have been like fire together. It was bizarre.
“I think he does love his girlfriend but he loves me as well. It just brings me to a part of my life that was quite dark, really.”
Following her cut up from footballer ex Scott Sinclair, the daddy of her three youngsters, Helen admitted feeling “very lonely”. It took her more than 9 months to start courting again after their break up.
She confessed: “I was in love with the man. I wouldn’t have enjoyed watching the man I was in love with having sex with another woman. That’s not for me.”
Helen also expressed emotions of guilt in direction of Sian, who is in an open relationship with David, stating: “I didn’t feel nice about it at all. It makes me feel really bad and really upsets me because I’m a nice girl, I don’t mean to hurt people, and I felt really, really bad about it.
“I felt actually guilty about it, but I used to be just actually lonely. I discovered it actually exhausting, you recognize? I discovered it actually troublesome, but clearly, if you sleep with somebody for fairly a long time you do fall in love with them, and I used to be just lonely and it just occurred.”
Helen and David initially crossed paths in the jungle during their stint on I’m A Celebrity in 2012.
