Helen Flanagan is hoping to stay on Coronation Street

From Digital Spy

Coronation Street star Helen Flanagan has said she would love to stay on the show beyond her current three-month contract.

It was announced last year that Helen would be returning to the soap after five years away, with her character Rosie Webster hitting our screens again next week.

Helen is currently only contracted to stay for 12 weeks, but she has been honest about the fact she would be open to staying longer.

When asked about her plans during an appearance on Loose Women today (February 1), she said: "I've got a three-month contract. I'm not too sure, but I'd love to [stay] because I'm really, really enjoying it. I wanted to go back and I was really excited."

However, her return to the soap world does come at a price as she is currently living apart from her partner Scott Sinclair. Although it doesn't sound like she is too worried about their living set-up at the moment.

"Me and Matilda live with my mum and dad during the week, and then at the weekend we go down to Glasgow to see Scott," she said.

"It's lovely though and it's nice to have a break. It's not easy but I'm really supportive of his career and he is really supportive of mine."

And teasing a possible new romance for Rosie upon her return, Helen added: "I can only really see her with Adam Barlow. There is a spark there. They suit each other. I can't see her with anyone else on the Street."

Coronation Street airs Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays on ITV.
