HELEN Flanagan has wished boyfriend Robbie Talbot a very happy birthday - and donned a very sexy corset style top to do so.
The ex-Coronation Street star met her new man at a restaurant in February - but had already signed up to E4 show Celebs Go Dating and went ahead with her appearance on the programme.
She was however forced to reveal the just turned 45-year-old Robbie's identity when the truth came out - but it seems their relationship is going from strength to strength.
Posing in a very busty black and pink corset-style top, with her proud partner standing behind her, Helen tries and fails to keep a straight face.
Before failing in her attempts to hold in her laughter - and turning to Robbie and jokingly accusing him of making her laugh.
The 34-year-old captioned the post on her Instagram stories: "And when I dragged you on @celebsgodating but you did it for me."

And in the next clip shows Robbie is seen stepping up to the plate by helping Helen out with one of the three children she shares with footballer Scott Sinclair.
Showing Robbie feeding her three-year-old son Charlie in a restaurant, she captioned that clip: "And all the things that mean the most HBD babe."
Helen is also mum to Matilda, nine and six-year-old Delilah, six, who she shares with ex-Manchester City midfielder Scott, 35.
Robbie who has daughters Sophie, 14, and Carina, 10, from a previous relationship is a former footballer himself.
The ex-Burton Albion and Morecambe striker was nicknamed the Halloween Hitman, owing to his goalscoring prowess on the pitch, and birthday falling on October 31.
Appearing on Celebs Go Dating a tearful Helen eventually admitted she was already in a relationship - and let her Robbie secret out of the bag.
She said: "Unfortunately I am comparing everyone to him [Robbie]
"And it's making it very difficult now when I'm dating."
And it was at that point she admitted to possibly being "in love" with him.
She added: "My feelings have just got stronger and more intense.
"I actually could see something with this guy at home being something really quite lovely.
"I think I am in love with him."
Not wanting Helen to leave the show however, bosses ended up writing Robbie into it.
Helen, who played Rosie Webster in Coronation Street, split up with Scott in 2022, but their relationship is currently far from amicable.
She recently described their situation as "toxic" and said she is "blocked" on his phone.
