Coronation Street actress Helen Flangan spoke about an ongoing health issue online last weekend. The 29-year-old soap star, candidly told fans about her battle with the common condition while speaking to her 933,000 Instagram followers, and revealed a visit to the chemist was in order.

Helen, who shares two young daughters with her fiancé Scott Sinclair, appeared to be very emotional while discussing the matter on Sunday, but her puffy eyes were in fact caused by hayfever.

The mum-of-two revealed her eyes were "so swollen" and her nose was also affected by the seasonal condition.

The TV star, who recently moved house, went on to say that she had never had hay fever so bad and joked she was probably allergic to her new property.

Talking directly to her fans, via an Instagram Story, she said: "My hay fever is really bad."
