TV star Helen Flanagan has arrived at court as she faces a driving ban when her Audi was caught speeding twice in 16 days. The former Coronation Street star was in court today to find out her sentence after her car had been "caught speeding twice in 16 days". The actress was at the Wirral Magistrates' Court where she was accused of two charges of failing to provide documents.
She had allegedly not responded to police notices asking her to identify who was driving her Audi Q7 at the times it was caught speeding on July 10 and July 26 in the Liverpool area. The mum-of-three, 34, was joined by her partner Robbie Talbot as she made her way inside the court this afternoon, cutting a glamourous figure in an all black ensemble. The former soap star wore he blonde tresses loose and carried a designer bag as Robbie walked along side her.
During her first court appearance, Helen claimed her boyfriend Robbie was to blame as she was "too busy as a working single mum" and didn't remember if she had read the court papers. "I'm so confused. My life would be unbelievably difficult without a driving licence," she told the court.
She also added: "I said to my boyfriend, you need to reply to this. I was not driving the car at the time and I said you need to sort it. I was annoyed. It was not me who had the points," before she was quizzed on whether she had actually seen the court papers.
She told the court: "I am a single mum. I have three children, I work constantly. I cannot remember. I am a busy working single mum. I cannot remember. I do not do my paperwork. I literally get my dad to do my paperwork. Yes, I think I did because I was worried if I could drive my car or not. But I cannot remember. I am really confused, I do not understand. But my boyfriend has got paperwork which shows that he responded.".
