Helen Flanagan shared a look inside the special Christmas sleepover she hosted for her daughters in the living room of their home.

The pregnant actress, who recently opened up about not enjoying her third pregnancy, had installed mini teepees filled with Christmas treats for Matilda and Delilah to enjoy.

Helen, 30, who is expecting her third child with fiancé Scott Sinclair, decided to host the festive treat over the weekend after putting up her Christmas decorations.

Helen, who celebrated her 30th birthday earlier this year with a Harry Potter theme, enlisted the help of a local company, Slumber Under, to put on the amazing display.

"I did my girls a lovely treat over the weekend," she wrote, panning over her huge Christmas tree which was surrounded by the mini teepees for her daughters.

"I wanted to share this small business as I was really impressed. Such thought went into this and it's really special for children and @slumberunder is affordable. They are based in the north west. Such a lovely thing to do in lockdown," the expecting mum-of-two shared.

Delilah, two, and Matilda, five, got to wear personalised slippers embroidered with their names and enjoy jars of sweets and Christmas crackers.

The teepees were decorated with tinsel and fairy lights, as well a fake holly leaves and fern and there was also a mini stuffed reindeer for each of the girls.

They even had a box of presents wrapped for them underneath the tree, with a sign that read "Merry Christmas Matilda and Delilah".

Matilda was thrilled with the festive slumber party, as Helen shared a sweet snap of her in a pair of burgundy velvet pyjamas hugging a Toy Story Jesse toy.

"My baby loved it. Matilda is always such a lovely kind girl," she wrote.

The Christmas sleepover comes after Helen told fans she is still co-sleeping with five-year-old Matilda, but she wants to get her daughter into her own bed before the birth of her third baby.

Helen told fans on her Instagram stories: “So Matilda still likes to sleep with mummy, it’s just something we’ve always done, really. It’s just something… obviously if she’s happy then that’s always been my priority, you know.

“But I think now I’m going to have my third and what have you, so we’re just gradually working on that. I think it can be a very very hard one though.

"Delilah has always really liked her cot but Matilda has always liked to stay with me, which I’m finding too hard at the moment because of my back pain.”

However, the expectant mum is hopeful that she’ll be able to get Matilda into her own bed in time for the new arrival.

She explained: “She’s always bunk beds though so I’m hoping that will be some kind of motivation for her to maybe sleep on her own. I mean I love the cuddles and everything, because she always likes to stay with me.”
